SYMPTOM(s):

Remote clients fail to connect to the database with error 12451 due to wrong -minport and -maxport settings.

A remote client was unable to connect to server <server-number> using port <port-number> - please check the port. (12451)

Host has 180 DB's with 5 servers each.

FACT(s) (Environment):

Startup parameters -minport and -maxport are the default.
Other ports between the -minport and -maxport range are in use.
All Supported Operating Systems
Progress/OpenEdge Versions
OpenEdge Category: Configuration

CAUSE:

The default setting for -minport and -maxport is insufficient for the number of server processes.

FIX:

Increase the port range by using a higher value for -maxport.
Example:
Default setting for -minport is 1025 and for -maxport 2000 this means 976 available ports for the servers.
Setting -maxport to 5000 would extend the port pool to 3976.
