To change ports for OBIEE 11g Adminserver and Biserver1
This is a way of Making the Port changes to OBIEE 11g without logging into the UI
1. Bring Down Services OBIEE All services
- $MW_HOME/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl stopall
- $MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/stopManagedWebLogic.sh bi_server1
- ps -ef |grep Node|grep nodemanager |cut -c10-15
This will show the Node Manager process. Write down its PID. Then execute:
- kill <NodeManager_PID>
- $MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/stopWebLogic.sh
2. Change config.xml ports add an extra tag if needed within config.xml for AdminServer - In example i have changed port to 8005
File can be found here: Remember to take a backup of the file$MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/config/config.xml
find tag <name>AdminServer</name>
find tag under the tag above called <machine>hostname.net</machine>
add a tag under machine tag called
<listen-port>8005</listen-port>
If you dont set a listen port tag then the standard port is 7001
3. Change config.xml ports add an extra tag if needed within config.xml for BIServer1 - In example i have changed port to 8006
Find tag <name>bi_server1</name>find tag under the tag above called <machine>hostname.net</machine>
<listen-port>8006</listen-port>
The listen port tag should exist here so just change the port.
4. Modify NQSConfig.xml
If you dont change these settings sometimes you cant login to OBIEE after making Port Changes.
File can be found here : Remember to take a backup of the file.$MW_HOME/instances/instance1/config/OracleBIServerComponent/coreapplication_obis1/NQSConfig.INI
Alter Entries ( Sample given i have set port to 8006)
FMW_SECURITY_SERVICE_URL = "http://192.1.1.1:8006"; -- Make sure Port is correct.
FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = YES; -- Change from NO to YES
Save file
5. Start OBIEE all services
nohup $MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/startWebLogic.sh &nohup $MW_HOME/wlserver_10.3/server/bin/startNodeManager.sh &
nohup $MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/startManagedWebLogic.sh bi_server1 &
nohup $MW_HOME/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl startall &
After Everything has started and working ok the NQSConfig setting
FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = YES; can be set to NO.
Ports can also be changed directly within Weblogic using the UI
http://hostname:7001/console
Goto Servers - Click on a server
Once clicked you will see the listner port : Lock and Edit Make the change and save it
