Change the Daemon Port for an Instance

You can change the daemon port for an instance.

This example first runs the Linux/UNIX echo command to display the instance in which $TIMESTEN_HOME references. It then reviews the $TIMESTEN_HOME/conf/timesten.conf file to display the current port number. It then runs ttInstanceModify to change the port number to 6524. As a final step, the example shows the port number has been changed in the $TIMESTEN_HOME/conf/timesten.conf file.

% cat $TIMESTEN_HOME/conf/timesten.conf
# TimesTen Instance Configuration File
# Created by ttInstanceCreate
# Commented values are default values
hostname=host1
timesten_release=26.1
instance_name=fullinstance1
daemon_port=6624
server_port=6625
admin_user=myadminuser
admin_uid=4738
group_name=timesten
instance_guid=9EEF0277-21C0-45F1-AB63-F0C5F48B6FE0
verbose=1

Run ttInstanceModify to change the port number to 6524.

% $TIMESTEN_HOME/bin/ttInstanceModify -port 6524
The daemon will now run on port 6524 ...
You must restart the daemon for these changes to take effect.

Review the $TIMESTEN_HOME/conf/timesten.conf file to ensure the port number is changed.

% cat $TIMESTEN_HOME/conf/timesten.conf
# TimesTen Instance Configuration File
# Created by ttInstanceCreate
# Commented values are default values
hostname=host1
timesten_release=26.1
instance_name=fullinstance1
daemon_port=6524
server_port=6625
admin_user=myadminuser
admin_uid=4738
group_name=timesten
instance_guid=9D37C711-DF86-4007-A959-2AB52DA46035
verbose=1

Restart the daemon

% ttDaemonAdmin -start 
TimesTen Daemon (PID: 11635, port: 6524) startup OK.
