By default, port 24262 is used for communication between the Analyzer detail view server and RAID Agent server for On-demand real time monitoring. To change this default, you must configure properties in the Analyzer detail view server.

If the Analyzer detail view server is receiving data from multiple RAID Agent servers and you want to configure a separate port for each server, you need to know the RAID Agent server IP addresses available in the Analyzer detail view server. To identify the IP addresses, do the following:
  1. Log on to the Analyzer detail view UI.
  2. From the left pane, click Reports > Build.

    The Build window opens.

  3. Click Create Using MQL.
  4. Enter the following query in the MQL box using the following format:
    raidStorage[=serialNumber rx serialNumber]/raidAgentInstance[=raHost rx .*]
    For example:
    raidStorage[=serialNumber rx 421358]/raidAgentInstance[=raHost rx .*]
  5. Click View Result.

    The View Result window opens.

  6. In the View Result window, click the desired resource in the Resource column.

    The RAID Agent server IP address is displayed in the RAID Agent Host column.

  7. Copy the IP address.
  1. Log on to the Analyzer detail view server through an SSH client (like putty) as a root user.
  2. Stop the crond service and verify the status with these commands:
    service crond stop
    service crond status
  3. Stop the megha service and verify the status with these commands:
    /usr/local/megha/bin/megha-jetty.sh stop
    /usr/local/megha/bin/megha-jetty.sh status
  4. Make a backup of the custom.properties file:
    cp /usr/local/megha/conf/custom.properties /usr/local/megha/conf/custom_orig.properties
  5. Edit the custom.properties file.
    vi /usr/local/megha/conf/custom.properties
  6. Change the port as follows:
    • If you want to use one port to communicate with all RAID Agent servers available in Analyzer detail view server, add the following property:
      default.raidAgent.port=port_Number
      For example:
      default.raidAgent.port=25663
    • If you want to use a different port to communicate with each RAID Agent server, add a separate entry for each server as follows:
      RAID_Agent_Server_IP_address.raidAgent.port=Port_Number
      For example:
      192.168.100.52.raidAgent.port=80
      192.168.20.27.raidAgent.port=89
  7. Save the custom.properties file.
  8. Start the megha service and verify the status with these commands:
    /usr/local/megha/bin/megha-jetty.sh start
    /usr/local/megha/bin/megha-jetty.sh status
  9. Start the crond service and verify the status with these commands:
    service crond start
    service crond status
