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, run the changeHostProperties script.

The procedure requires you to stop the application server, create a text file of the current host properties, edit the file, run the utility and restart the application server. Find information about how to do this as follows:
  • Application server - using the utilities that change the properties gives a generic description of the procedure for making any change to the WebSphere Application Server properties
  • Changing host properties lists all the host properties and gives other reference information about the utility
  • When editing the text file of the current host properties, do as follows:
    1. Edit the text file and locate the following properties: 
      ################################################################
# Host Configuration Panel
################################################################

# Old Hostname
oldHostname=myoldhost.mydomain.com

# New Hostname
newHostname=myhost.mydomain.com
             
################################################################
Ports Configuration Panel
################################################################
bootPort=41117
bootHost=myhost.mydomain.com
soapPort=41118
soapHost=myhost.mydomain.com
httpPort=41115
httpHost=*
httpsPort=41116
httpsHost=*
adminPort=41123
adminHost=*
adminSecurePort=41124
adminSecureHost=*
sasPort=41119
sasHost=myhost.mydomain.com
csiServerAuthPort=41120
csiServerAuthHost=myhost.mydomain.com
csiMuthualAuthPort=41121
csiMuthualAuthHost=myhost.mydomain.com
orbPort=41122
orbHost=myhost.mydomain.com
      The rules for changing these values are as follows:
      • To change the host name, supply both oldHostname and newHostname. Also check that the values of bootHost and csiServerAuthHost are set correctly (normally to the new host name).
      • If you change the host name, the old host port settings are used, unless you specifically change them.
      • If you do not supply a port number it is not changed.

      Do not change any other properties.

    Note: The utility might display a message from the application server (WASX7357I:). You can ignore this message.
