PORT

Valid for

Manager

Description

For remote processes to request dynamic services, such as creating Collector processes, Manager must listen on a designated TCP/IP port. This port is defined in the parameter files of Extract groups. To specify a dynamic port, enter the RMTHOST parameter with its MGRPORT option in the Extract parameter file.

The default TCP/IP process for Manager is $ZTC0. To change the default process, before you start or restart the Manager process:

Set the TCPIPPROCESSNAME parameter in the Manager parameter file. See "TCPIPPROCESSNAME" for more information.
Set the DEFINE =TCPIP^PROCESS^NAME to the process you want. For example:
```
ADD DEFINE =TCPIP^PROCESS^NAME, FILE $ZTC3
```

Default

None (Do not listen on a port if none is specified)

Syntax

PORT port_number

port_number: The port number.
