System Requirements
This section describes the special considerations for various operating systems
and Agents. It contains the following topics:
■ Network Port Assignments
■ Reconfiguration After Controller Replacement
■ Requirements for TCP/IP Stacks on OpenVMS Version 7.2
Network Port Assignments
SWCC Clients and Agents communicate by using sockets. The SWCC
installation attempts to add entries into each system list of services (services
file or for UCX, the local services database). In order for SWCC to operate the
port names and numbers must match for all host and client systems on the
network.
If the SWCC installation finds an entry in the local services file with the same
name as the one it wants to add, it assumes the one already in the file is
correct.
The SWCC installation may display a message, stating that it cannot upgrade
the services file. This happens if it finds an entry in the local services file with
the same number as the one it wants to add, but with a different name. In that
case, appropriate port numbers must be obtained for the network and added
manually to the services file.
There are two default port numbers, one for Command Console (4998) and
one other for the device-specific Agent and Client software. The exception is
the software for the RA200 Agent and Client, which has two (instead of one)
default network port numbers.
The OpenVMS configuration files add the services entries, not the PCSI
installation kit.
