GOAL:
How to bind the AdminServer to a specific Hostname or IP address on Windows?
GOAL:
How to bind AdminService with multiple NIC?
GOAL:
How to bind AdminServer to certain IP on a machine with multiple NIC cards?
FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge 10.x
Windows NT 32 Intel/Windows 2000
Progress 9.1B
Progress 9.1C
Progress 9.1D
Progress 9.1E
FIX:
In some Networking configurations by default the AdminServer may not bind to the correct IP address if there are more than one NIC cards installed. Therefore it may be required to start the AdminServer using a certain IP address or Hostname.
NOTE: backup the Registry Keys before making modifications.
To do this on Windows you can add an entry to the following Registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PSC\AdminService\<9.1x>\StartupCmd\Chimera
Add the correct string for the specific version of Progress detailed below:
9.1B:
------
The following must be inserted into the StartupCmd and ShutdownCmd Chimera Data-value sting.
/d:java.rmi.server.hostname=<Hostname or IP address>
Insert this just before com.progress.chimera.adminserver.AdminServer, making sure there is a space before and after this entry.
9.1C/9.1D/9.1E/10.x:
--------------------------
The following must be inserted into the StartupCmd and ShutdownCmd Chimera Data-value sting.
-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=<hostname or IP address>
insert this just before com.progress.chimera.adminserver.AdminServerType, making sure there is a space before and after this entry.
