Tidal Enterprise Orchestrator: Out-of-Process Adapter Needs to Use Different Ports

Introduction

This document provides information about how to change the ports used by an out-of-process adapter in case an end user does not need to use the defaults.

Prerequisites

Components Used

The information in this document is based on Tidal Enterprise Orchestrator (TEO) 2.2 or later.

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Issue

The out-of-process adapters start with using port 59986 for communication. Each out-of-process adapter uses two ports together. The first one uses 59986 and 59987. The second out-of-process adapter uses 59988 and 59989. As of TEO 2.2, there are only two out-of-process adapters. The end user might need to change the ports for communication if there is a conflict with another application.

How to Change Ports

Complete these steps:

1. Stop the TEO Service.

2. Edit the Tidal.Automation.Server.Exe.Config file found in the TEO install directory.

3. Under the <Tidal.Automation.Engine.Master.Properties.Setting> tag, there is a setting for "OutOfProcessAdapterBasePort" which can be set and defaults to 59986. This can be changed and looks similar to the following if the port used is 60000:

   <setting name="OutOfProcessAdapterBasePort" serializeAs="String"> <value>60000</value> </setting>

4. Save the file and restart the TEO servers.
