Use the updatePorts.ant script to change ports in an installed
profile.
Before you begin
Each profile template has its own updatePorts.ant script.
The updatePorts.ant script for application server profiles is in the
app_server_root/profileTemplates/template_name/actions
directory. To use the script, you have to identify which profile to update.
避免困難: You should only run this script if the profile is unfederated and if the
configuration is the same structure as it was when the profile was created. For example, this script
is ideal for changing ports for an unfederated application server profile after you created the
profile but before you altered its configuration. For all other situations, use the techniques
described in
Setting port numbers kept in the serverindex.xml file using
scripting.

About this task
Use the following procedure to become familiar with using the
updatePorts.ant script. Each step is an exercise that results in reassigning
ports using a particular method that the updatePorts.ant script supports.
Look at steps for all of the operating systems mentioned. The differences are mainly in the
extension of the script file and the direction of the directory delimiters. For example, Linux shell scripts
(*.sh) and other commands require a ./ before the command to
tell the operating system that the command is in the current working directory.

Procedure
Assign nonconflicting ports to the AppSrv01 profile. The ANT script assigns nonconflicting ports by default. No special arguments are needed. Identify
the fully qualified directory paths, profile name, unique node name, and unique cell name. Then
issue the command.
- Create the Java™ properties file encoded in ISO8859-1 file encoding, to assign nonconflicting port values
to the application server profile.
For this example, assume that the system is a Linux operating system and that you create the following
/TMP/was_props/appserver.props properties file.
WAS_HOME=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer
was.install.root=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer
profileName=AppSrv01
profilePath=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01
templatePath=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profileTemplates/default
nodeName=appserver_node01
cellName=appserver_cell01
hostName=myserver.ibm.com
- Open a command shell window.
- Change directories to the /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin directory.
cd /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin
(Or, if
the product is installed to a non-default directory, change directories to the app_server_root/bin
directory.)
- Issue the command.
./ws_ant.sh -propertyfile /TMP/was_props/appserver.props \
-file /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profileTemplates/default/actions/updatePorts.ant
- Open the administrative console and view the changed port assignments.
To view the port assignments, click .
- Run the script again and view the ports. Are they the same as before?
The resulting dynamically assigned port values apply to all of the ports currently assigned to
the AppSrv01 profile, for every server listed in the serverindex.xml file for
the profile node name. Each port receives a new nonconflicting value. None of the old port value
assignments are used because the port values are in use at the time of the new assignment.
Assign default ports to the AppSrv02 profile. The ANT script assigns nonconflicting ports by default. The defaultPorts=true special argument is
needed. Identify the fully qualified directory paths, profile name, unique node name, and unique
cell name. Then issue the command.
- Create the Java properties file encoded in ISO8859-1 file encoding, to assign default port values to the
application server profile.
For this example, assume that the system is a Windows operating system and
that you create the following C:\temp\was_props\appserver.props properties
file.
WAS_HOME="C:/Program Files/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer"
was.install.root="C:/Program Files/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer"
profileName=AppSrv02
profilePath="C:/Program Files/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv02"
templatePath="C:/Program Files/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profileTemplates/default"
nodeName=appserver_node02
cellName=appserver_cell02
hostName=myserver2.ibm.com
defaultPorts=true
Use double quotation marks around a Windows path name with spaces. Do not use quotation marks
around the path name if there are no spaces in the path.
- Open a DOS command window.
- Change directories to the C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\bin
directory.
cd "C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\bin"
(Or,
if the product is installed to a non-default directory, change directories to the app_server_root/bin
directory.)
- Issue the command.
ws_ant.bat -propertyfile C:\temp\was_props\appserver.props
-file "C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profileTemplates\default\actions\updatePorts.ant"
- Open the administrative console and view the changed port assignments.
To view the port assignments, click .
- Run the script again and view the ports. Are they the same as before?
The resulting assigned port values are the same each time because the values are the default
values. This method does not resolve conflicting port assignments. To view all port assignments for
a profile, see the C:\Program
Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv02\config\cells\appserver_cell02\nodes\appserver_node02\serverindex.xml
file. Issue the netstat -a command to see all ports in use on the machine.
Assign ports starting at 2050 to the AppSrv03 profile. The ANT script assigns nonconflicting ports by default. The startingPort=2050 special argument is
needed. Identify the fully qualified directory paths, profile name, unique node name, and unique
cell name. Then issue the command.
- Create the Java properties file encoded in ISO8859-1 file encoding, to assign default port values to the
application server profile.
For this example, assume that the system is an AIX® operating system and that you create the following
/usr/tmp/was_props/appserver.props properties file.
WAS_HOME=/usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer
was.install.root=/usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer
profileName=AppSrv03
profilePath=/usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv03"
templatePath=/usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profileTemplates/default"
nodeName=appserver_node03
cellName=appserver_cell03
hostName=myserver3.ibm.com
startingPort=2050
- Open a command shell window.
- Change directories to the /usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin
directory.
cd /usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin
(Or, if
the product is installed to a non-default directory, change directories to the app_server_root/bin
directory.)
- Issue the command.
./ws_ant.sh -propertyfile /usr/tmp/was_props/appserver.props \
-file /usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profileTemplates/default/actions/updatePorts.ant
- Open the administrative console and view the changed port assignments.
To view the port assignments, click .
- Run the script again and view the ports. Are they the same as before?
After using the -startingPort option, the resulting dynamically assigned port values are not the
same each time because the ANT script assigns nonconflicting port values starting from the
startingPort number (port 2050 in this case). This method resolves conflicting port assignments.

Use a port definition property file to assign ports to the AppSrv04 profile. The ANT script assigns nonconflicting ports by default. The
portsFile=/opt/was/portdefs.our_appsrv_ex.props special argument is needed. Identify the fully
qualified directory paths, profile name, unique node name, and unique cell name. Then issue the
command.
- Create the Java properties file encoded in ISO8859-1 file encoding, to assign nonconflicting port values
to the application server profile.
Assume that you create the following
/opt/was/portdefs.our_appsrv_ex.props
properties
file:
WC_defaulthost=19080
WC_adminhost=19060
WC_defaulthost_secure=19443
WC_adminhost_secure=19043
BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS=22809
SOAP_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS=28880
IPC_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS=9633
SAS_SSL_SERVERAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS=29401
CSIV2_SSL_SERVERAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS=29403
CSIV2_SSL_MUTUALAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS=29402
ORB_LISTENER_ADDRESS=39100
DCS_UNICAST_ADDRESS=39353
SIB_ENDPOINT_ADDRESS=37276
SIB_ENDPOINT_SECURE_ADDRESS=37286
SIB_MQ_ENDPOINT_ADDRESS=45558
SIB_MQ_ENDPOINT_SECURE_ADDRESS=45578
SIP_DEFAULTHOST=45060
SIP_DEFAULTHOST_SECURE=45061
Note: The ports used in the port definition property file should reflect the template type. The
ports in this example are for the default template type, and they might vary for other template
types. The management template has three different portdef.props files, one for each
servertype. They are adminagent.portdef.props, dmgr.portdef.props and
jmgr.portdef.props. They can be modelled after the portdef.props file found in
the template directory.
Assume that you create the following /TMP/was_props/appserver.props
properties file:
WAS_HOME=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer
was.install.root=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer
profileName=AppSrv04
profilePath=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv04
templatePath=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profileTemplates/default
nodeName=appserver_node04
cellName=appserver_cell04
hostName=myserver4.ibm.com
portsFile=/opt/was/portdefs.our_appsrv_ex.props
- Open a command shell window.
- Change directories to the /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin
directory.
cd /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin
(Or, if
the product is installed to a non-default directory, change directories to the app_server_root/bin
directory.)
- Issue the command.
./ws_ant.sh -propertyfile /TMP/was_props/appserver.props \
-file /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profileTemplates/default/actions/updatePorts.ant
- Open the administrative console and view the changed port assignments.
To view the port assignments, click .
- Run the script again and view the ports. Are they the same as before?
The resulting assigned port values are from a props file. Therefore, the values do not change.
This method does not resolve conflicting port assignments.

Results
This procedure results in four different methods of port assignments with the
updatePorts.ant script.
