Configuring Ports

(Optional) Use the scc -port command to assign Sybase Control Center services to new ports.

Prerequisites

Check for port conflicts between Sybase Control Center and other software running on the same host.

Task

Sybase Control Center cannot function properly if other services use its ports. If you discover a conflict with any port listed in the right column below, you can either reconfigure the other service’s port or reconfigure Sybase Control Center as described here.

Short port name	Description	Service names	Property names	Default port number
db	Database port	SccSADataserver Messaging Alert Scheduler	com.sybase.asa.server.port messaging.db.port alert.database.port org.quartz.dataSource.ASA.URL	3638
http	Web HTTP port	EmbeddedWebContainer	http.port	8282
https	Web HTTPS (secure HTTP) port	EmbeddedWebContainer	https.port	8283
jiniHttp	JINI HTTP server	Jini	httpPort	9092
jiniRmid	JINI Remote Method Invocation daemon	Jini	rmidPort	9095
msg	Messaging port	Messaging	messaging.port	2000
rmi	RMI port	RMI	port	9999
tds	Tabular Data Stream™ port (used to communicate with other Sybase products)	Tds	tdsPort	9998

Shut down Sybase Control Center.
Execute scc --info ports to display a list of Sybase Control Center services, their properties, and their assigned ports.
To reassign a port, enter a command in one of these formats:
scc --port port-name=port-number
scc --port service-name:property-name=port-number
Use the first, simpler format unless you want to configure the database services to use different ports. (By default, they all use the same port.)
Start Sybase Control Center.
Execute scc --info ports again to confirm that the port has been reassigned.

Examples

Set all four database services (data server, messaging, database alert, and scheduler) to the same port, 3639. (The database is SQL Anywhere, used by the Sybase Control Center internal repository.)

scc --port db=3639

Set only the database messaging service to port 3639.

scc --port Messaging:messaging.db.port=3639

Set the HTTP port to 9292.

scc --port http=9292

Set the Jini RMI daemon to port 9696.

scc --port jiniRmid=9696

Set the main Sybase Control Center messaging service to port 2001.

scc --port msg=2001

Set the RMI port to 9991.

scc --port rmi=9991

Set the Tabular Data Stream port to 9997.

scc --port tds=9997

Note: scc commands that include a port-setting option (-p or --port, for example) do not start Sybase Control Center. To start SCC, execute a separate scc command.
