pbx_exchange on port 1556 - can it be moved?

[Troy_Schuler_2]

I need to move the pbx to a different port. We tried to change the script so that it would bind to 1557 (which is unused) but it won't stay alive. Any ideas?

Got this from Symantec support:

Details:

The command pbxcfg can be used to change the number for Private Branch Exchange () service.

Example:

1. Use the command pbxcfg to set the new number:

/opt/VRTSpbx/bin/pbxcfg -s -n 1234 ( make sure the next higher number is also available, in this case 1235 )

- Or you can also manually modify the number in the /etc/vx/VxICS/VxPBX.cfg file like this:

"PortNumber"="1234"

2. Add the following line to the /etc/services file:

veritas_pbx 1234/tcp veritas_pbx

3. Stop all NetBackup daemons

4. Shut down Private Branch Daemon (pbx_exchange):

pkill pbx_exchange

5. Restart Private Branch Daemon (pbx_exchange):

cd /opt/VRTSpbx/bin

./pbx_exchange

6. Using netstat, make sure that the server is now listening on the new number:

netstat -a | grep veritas_pbx


The output should look like this if everything is correct:


*.veritas_pbx *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN


7. Add the following entry to bp.conf file to tell the NetBackup server to connect to the EMM server using the new number:

EMMPORT = 1234

8. Restart the NetBackup daemons

NetBackup should now communicate with the EMM server via the new numbers
