assign a different port to the administrative console. You can do this when you
install WebSphere Application Server or afterwards.
To change the port used by the WebSphere Administrative Console after
WebSphere Application Server is installed, complete the following steps. In this
example, the WebSphere Administrative Console runs under the application server
named server1 and the Web browser is running on the same system as WebSphere
Application Server:
1. Select an available port using both of the following techniques:
v Examine the /etc/services or %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\drivers\etc\services
file to see a list of port definitions for the system.
The list includes ports that can be used by services on your system, even if
the port is not currently in use. The file does not include ports that are
opened dynamically by applications.
v Use the netstat -a command to list the active ports on this system.
This example uses port 9091.
2.
In the virtualhosts.xml file, located in the
WAS_install_dir/config/cells/cellName directory, change port 9090 to 9091.
3. In the server.xml file, located in the
WAS_install_dir/config/cells/cellName/nodes/nodeName/server/server1
directory, change port 9090 to 9091.
4. Stop server1, and then start it using the following commands:
stopServer server1
startServer server1
5. Access the administrative console using the following Web address:
http://hostName:9091/admin
On Windows, if you have shortcuts to the administrative console, you must change
the port number in the Target field of the shortcut properties.
