DYNAMICPORTLIST

Valid For

Manager

Description

Use the DYNAMICPORTLIST parameter to specify a list of available ports to which the following local Oracle GoldenGate processes can bind for communication with a remote Oracle GoldenGate process:

Collector: to communicate with a remote Extract to receive incoming data.
Replicat: to communicate with a remote Extract to receive data during an initial load task.
Passive Extract: to communicate with a remote Collector
GGSCI: to issue remote commands

Specify enough ports to accommodate expansion of the number of processes without having to stop and restart Manager to add them to the list. You can specify an individual port, a range of ports, or both.

Note:

When DYNAMICPORTLIST is not used, Oracle GoldenGate opens a TCPv4 and a TCPv6 connection to the target because of which multiple ports for TCPv4 and TCPv6 are created although activity occurs on only one of those ports.

Default

None

Syntax

DYNAMICPORTLIST {port | port-port} [ , ...]

port

A port number that can be allocated. The maximum number of port entries is 5000.

To specify multiple ports, use a comma-delimited list. Example:
```
7830, 7833
```
To specify a range of ports, use a dash (-) to separate the first and last port in the range. Do not put any spaces before or after the dash. Example:
```
7830-7835
```
To specify a range of ports plus an individual port, place a comma between the range and the individual port number. Example:
```
7830-7835, 7839
```

Example

DYNAMICPORTLIST 7820-7830, 7833, 7835
