chgwassvr command

The chgwassvr command allows you to change the ports for an application server within a profile.

For usage instructions and examples, see the Change application server properties topic. To run this script, your user profile must have *ALLOBJ authority.

You can also use the administrative console to create and manage application servers. See the Administering application servers topic for more information.

Syntax

The command syntax is as follows:

chgwassvr -server servername 
 [instance instancename] [-profileName instancename]
 [-portblock portnumber] [-transport -oldport oldvalue 
 -newport newvalue] [-endpoint endpointname -port newvalue] 
 [-inthttp inthttpport] 
 [-inthttpssl inthttpsslport] [-admin adminport] 
 [-adminssl adminsslport]
 [-soap soapport] [-nameservice nameserviceport] 
 [-sas sasserverport] 
 [-csiv2server csiv2serverauthport]
 [-csiv2client csiv2clientauthport] [-verbose] [-help | -?]

Parameters

The following options are available for the chgwassvr command:

-server
This is a required parameter. The value servername specifies the name of the server to change. For the default WebSphere® Application Server profile, the default server name is server1. For the default Network Deployment profile, the default server name is dmgr. The value for this parameter is case-sensitive and must match the server name exactly. You can use the dspwasinst command to view the servers associated with a profile. For more information, see the dspwasinst command topic.
-profileName
This is an optional parameter. The value profile specifies the name of the profile that contains the application server that you want to change. The default value is default.
-portblock
This is an optional parameter. The value portblock specifies the first number of a block of port numbers that your profile uses. If you specify this parameter, the script changes all of the port numbers for your application server. If you do not specify this parameter, the port numbers for your application server are not changed, unless you specify a port parameter to change (see port parameters below). You can use the Work with TCP/IP Network Status (NETSTAT *CNN) command to display a list of port numbers that are currently being used.
  • A WebSphere Application Server profile uses several ports for various functions. When you change an application server's properties, ports are assigned based on the following ordered conditions:
    Specific port parameters
    If you specify values for specific port parameters, the script uses those values. Specific port parameters are -inthttp (Base application server), -admin, -jmsqueued (Base application server), -jmsdirect (Base application server), -jmssecure (Base application server), -soap, -orblistener (Network Deployment), -nameservice, -drsclient, and -celldiscovery (Network Deployment).
    The -portblock parameter
    Services for which you have not specified a port number are assigned ports sequentually starting with the value of the -portblock parameter. If a script encounters a port that is in use, it skips that port number and continues with the next unused port.
    Current values
    If -portblock is not specified, any services for which you have not specified a port parameter retain their current value.
  • For the -portblock parameter, the script checks only a master index of all profiles of WebSphere Application Server. The script is not able to detect port usage by other applications, including previous versions of WebSphere Application Server.
-transport
This is an optional parameter set. The value oldvalue specifies the port number of the web container transport that you want to change. The value newvalue specifies the new port number that you want to assign to the web container transport. If the web container transport is also specified in the host alias for a virtual host, the port for the host alias is also updated.

Use the -transport parameter set instead of the -admin, -adminssl, -inthttp or -inthttpssl parameters. These parameters are deprecated.

-endpoint
This is an optional parameter. The value endpointname specifies the name of the endpoint port to modify. The value newvalue specifies port number to which to set the endpoint's port.
-inthttp
This is an optional parameter. The value inthttpport specifies the port number on which the web container listens for requests from the web server. If neither the -portblock parameter nor the -inthttp parameter is specified, this port is not changed. See the -portblock parameter for more information.
-inthttpssl
This is an optional parameter. The value inthttpsslport specifies the port number that your application server uses for secure communications with internal HTTP server. If neither the -portblock parameter nor the -inthttpssl parameter is specified, this port is not changed. See the -portblock parameter for more information.
-admin
This is an optional parameter. The value adminport specifies the port number to use for the administrative console. If neither the -portblock parameter nor the -admin parameter is specified, this port is not changed. See the -portblock parameter for more information
-adminssl
This is an optional parameter. The value adminportssl specifies the port number to use for the secure communications with administrative console. If neither the -portblock parameter nor the -adminssl parameter is specified, this port is not changed. See the -portblock parameter for more information.
-soap
This is an optional parameter. The value soapport specifies the port number to use for SOAP. If neither the -portblock parameter nor the -soap parameter is specified, this port is not changed. See the -portblock parameter for more information.
-nameservice
This is an optional parameter. The value nameserviceport specifies the port number to use for name service (or RMI connector) port. If neither the -portblock parameter nor the -nameservice parameter is specified, this port is not changed. See the -portblock parameter for more information.
-sas
This is an optional parameter. The value sasserverport specifies the port on which the Secure Association Services (SAS) listen for inbound authentication requests. If the -sas parameter is not specified, this port is not changed. This port is specified by the SAS_SSL_SERVERAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS property in serverindex.xml.
-csiv2server
This is an optional parameter. The value csiv2serverauthport specifies the port on which the Common Secure Interoperability Version 2 (CSIV2) Service listens for inbound server authentication requests. If the -csiv2server parameter is not specified, this port is not changed. This port is specified by the CSIV2_SSL_SERVERAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS property in serverindex.xml.
-csiv2client
This is an optional parameter. The value csiv2clientauthport specifies the port on which the Common Secure Interoperability Version 2 (CSIV2) Service listens for inbound client authentication requests. If the -csiv2client parameter is not specified, this port is not changed. This port is specified by the CSIV2_SSL_MUTUALAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS property in serverindex.xml.
-nodediscovery
This is an optional parameter. The value nodediscport specifies the port on which the node of the node agent discovery service listens.
-nodemulti
This is an optional parameter. The value nodemultidiscport specifies the port on which the node agent's multicast discovery service listens.
-verbose
This optional parameter turns on verbose messages, which can be helpful if you need to debug the script.
-help
This optional parameter displays the help message. If you specify this parameter, the script ignores all other parameters.
