Step 2 On the Summary tab, make note of the path listed in the Release Directory field.
This is the current release directory.
Neither the Admin Tool nor the JDE provide a mechanism to add or edit the
niagarad.properties file; instead you must use one of the following procedures to
manually create or edit the file as needed:
• Changing the Admin Port on a Web Supervisor
• Changing the Admin Port on a JACE-NP
• Changing the Admin Port on a JACE-4/5
Caution Do not alter the existing content of niagarad.properties. Only add the
information described in the following procedure.
Changing the Admin Port on a Web Supervisor
Procedure 6-4 Changing port 3011 of a Web Supervisor host.
Step 1 On the Web Supervisor, open the Windows text editor Notepad by selecting Start
> Programs > Accessories > Notepad.
Step 2 From the menu, choose File > Open.
The Open dialog box appears and is initially set to show only files with a .txt
extension.
Step 3 In the Open dialog box, change the Files of Type list to All Files.
Step 4 Using the current release directory information you noted in Step 2 of the previous
procedure, browse the drive (and the sub-directories) to locate the
niagarad.properties file.
A typical directory and file structure looks like this:
D:\niagara\r2.203.nnn\nre\lib\niagarad.properties
Step 5 If you find the file, double-click to open it. Otherwise, click Cancel to be returned
to the new (untitled) file window.
Step 6 Add a line to the file that reads:
adminPort=<newport>
where <newport> is the number of the new port. Be sure to type in the line with the
capitalization as shown. Figure 6-8 shows an example of the line added to a new (not
yet saved) niagarad.properties file.
