Application server - changing the host name or TCP/IP ports
To modify the host name of the computer where the application server is installed, or the TCP/IP
ports it uses, use the following templates:
- host_variables.xml
- Specify the hostname in the
variable nameproperty. - ports_variable.xml
- Edit the following properties as required:
- host.http.port
- host.https.port
- host.bootstrap.port
- host.bootstrap.port.sec
To disable a port, set its value to -1.
Edit the files as required using the following basic procedure:
- Copy the template file from the templates folder to a working folder.
- Edit the template file in the working folder with the desired configuration.
- Optionally, create a backup copy of the relevant configuration file present in the overrides directory in a different directory. Ensure you do not copy the backup file in the path where the template files are located.
- Copy the updated template file to the overrides folder. Maintaining the original folder structure is not required.
- Changes are effective immediately.
