<hr align="left" size="2" style="color:#8091A5; " width="100%" ><br><br><br>Hello All,<br><br>Does anyone know how to change the HTTP ports for the Spectrum Scale GUI? Any documentation or RedPaper I have found deftly avoids discussing this. The most promising thing I see is in /opt/ibm/wlp/usr/servers/gpfsgui/server.xml:<br><br> <httpEndpoint id="defaultHttpEndpoint" host="*" httpPort="47080" httpsPort="47443"><br> <tcpOptions soReuseAddr="true"/><br> </httpEndpoint><br><br>but it appears that port 80 specifically is used also by the GUI's Web service. I already have an HTTP server using port 80 for provisioning (xCAT), so would rather change the Specturm Scale GUI configuration if I can.<br><br>Many Thanks,<br> Keith<br><tt><font face="" size="3" >_______________________________________________<br>gpfsug-discuss mailing list<br>gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org</font></tt><br><tt><font face="" size="3" ><a href="http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss" target="_blank">http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss</a></font></tt><br><br><br>
