OpenEdge Getting Started: Installation and Configuration - Product ...

Understanding and using the AdminServer
On UNIX, a command-line utility, PROADSV, supports OpenEdge administrative
capabilities. PROADSV allows you to start up, shut down, and query the status of the
AdminServer, among other tasks. See Appendix C, “Command and Utility Reference”
for detailed syntax information.
Stopping the AdminServer
You can stop the AdminServer from the desktop or using the command-line utility,
PROADSV. This section notes methods for the Windows and UNIX.
To stop the AdminServer on your machine from the Windows desktop:
• Choose Start→ Programs→ Administrative Tools→ Services. Select the
AdminService for OpenEdge 11.0, and double-click. The AdminService for
OpenEdge 11.0 Properties dialog box appears. Choose Stop, then choose OK.
Note: If Administrative Tools is not available, right-click from the Task Bar.
Choose Properties, then select the Advanced tab. Select the Display
Administrative Tools check box, then choose OK.
Performing the task using PROADSV on UNIX
On UNIX, a command-line utility, PROADSV, supports OpenEdge administrative
capabilities. PROADSV allows you to start up, shut down, and query the status of the
AdminServer, among other tasks. See Appendix C, “Command and Utility Reference”
for detailed syntax information.
Changing the default port
This section discusses ways to change the AdminServer’s default port, 20931.
Performing the task from the Windows desktop
In Windows, the AdminServer runs as a service. The AdminServer is configured to start
automatically. However, you can choose to change the listening port for the
AdminServer as shown in the following code fragment from the AdminServer rmi
registry:
[PluginPolicy.Progress.AdminServer]
pluginclasspath=!{value-of:classpath}
classpath=$DLC/java/...
#In the following code snipit, the port sets the AdminServer rmi registry port
number, the adminport sets the database plugin port, and the jvmargs sets the
database log level to the maximum setting allowed.
port=4321
adminport=7899
Note that if you specify values for the -port on the command line, these values
override values defined in the %DLC/properties/AdminServerPlugins.properties
file.
