How can I change the default listening port (port 162) for xtrapd?

To change the default listening port for xtrapd, run the commands as described below:

On Linux Management Server:

  • /opt/VRTSsfmcs/bin/xtrapdctrl stop

  • /opt/VRTSsfmcs/bin/xtrapdctrl start new port no

Note:

If xtrapd is restarted, it will again fall back to the default listening port 162.

On Windows Management Server:

On Windows operating system, xtrapd runs as a service. To change the listening port in Windows, the xtrapd service must be re-registered for the new port.

  • C:\Program Files\Veritas\VRTSsfmcs\bin>vomsc --stop xtrapd

  • C:\Program Files\Veritas\VRTSsfmcs\bin>xtrapd.exe -unregister

  • C:\Program Files\Veritas\VRTSsfmcs\bin>xtrapd.exe -register -c "Path in %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Symantec\VRTSsfmh\shared\xtrapd\xtrapd.conf" new port no

  • C:\Program Files\Veritas\VRTSsfmcs\bin>vomsc --start xtrapd

Note:

No SNMP traps will be processed while the ports are being updated.
