Setting a Fixed Port Number for SySAM License Server

To use a served license in an environment where there are no ports available, edit your license file to specify a fixed port number for the VENDOR SYBASE daemon to use in communicating with the SySAM license server.

You can specify a port number for the VENDOR SYBASE daemon to use by editing your license file. This task is required in order to install Sybase Unwired Platform in an environment where there are no ports available for the licensing server to select dynamically on startup. A strict security environment might be set up this way.

  1. Obtain a port number from your network security administrator that can be used by Unwired Platform to communicate with SySAM license server.
  2. Use a text editor to open your license file.
  3. Locate the VENDOR SYBASE line near the top of the license file.

    For example:

    #Sybase Software Asset Management License File. DT License for Sybase Unwired
#Platform Enterprise Developer for Windows - 32/64bit
SERVER mmdfwmapp299.mm.local 005056807a88 27001
VENDOR SYBASE
USE_SERVER
  4. At the end of that line, type PORT= followed by the port number you obtained.

    For example, if you are using port 27010:

    #Sybase Software Asset Management License File. DT License for Sybase Unwired
#Platform Enterprise Developer for Windows - 32/64bit
SERVER mmdfwmapp299.mm.local 005056807a88 27001
VENDOR SYBASE PORT=27010
USE_SERVER

    Be sure to leave a space between "SYBASE" and "PORT."

  5. Save and close the license file.
