Updating the CMR properties

 Please read the general information on updating the CMR properties first on the CMR Configuration page.

The Central Management Repository uses two ports for communication. The port 9070 is used for RMI communication via Kryonet framework with an Agent. The port 8182 is used by Jetty for the HTTP communication with the inspectIT User interface. 

Be sure that a firewall is not blocking the mentioned ports, since then the CMR will not be able to start.

If for any reason these ports are not available for usage, a user can manually change the ports by opening the  Configure Repository dialog. Changing any of two ports will require CMR to be restarted for changes to be applied.

RMI Port

RMI is used for data exchange between Agent and CMR. To adjust this port, do the following:

  • Agent
    • modify port configuration file --> repository [IP] [PORT] [Agent Name]
  • CMR

    • In the the  Configure Repository dialog open the General settings section and change the value of the Port property.

HTTP Port

Between CMR and UI HTTP is used as the communication protocol. To adjust this port, do the following:

  • CMR

    • In the the  Configure Repository dialog open the Jetty section and change the value of the Port property.

  • UI
    • Add a new Repository Definition with the desired port number
