Setup on RH with alternate ports
Hi,
I have downloaded and installed CLM on a Windows server several times with few issues. The environment is up and running and we have began testing the various functionality between the tools.
My team is now ready to put CLM through its paces and the server is a Redhat Linux box which is already running RTC/RQM 2.0.
So I have attempted the install but need to switch the ports the CLM server is listening on. I edited the Tomcat file, the CPA properties, and the CPA friends file and started the server. Went to RTC, brought it up, did setup, and change the two locations for the ports within advanced properties. Before shutting down, I attempted to bring up RQM to do setup. Nothing happens. Tried RDM, nothing happens. Tried CPA, nothing happens.
Is it a result of changing the ports? Don't know. Opened the RQM log file.
Various error messages in there which point to failure to load some bundles, etc, with a statement about "too many open files." Checked the number of files which were available to be opened and increased it to a ridiculous number.
Shutdown the server. Uninstalled. Reinstalled. Configured the "port" files again... same result. Now it has been uninstalled and reinstalled, waiting to be configured.
So I need help resolving this. The first part would appear to be getting the initial setup performed where it was configured to use the alternate ports properly. Is there anything I am missing? Any other steps?
Second, if I did the ports correctly, what should be the ulimit parameters on the linux box? How many files are we expecting to be open at any one time? The box has plenty of power and large reserves of memory.
Thank you.

One answer
The answer to my question is modifying those three files does set the ports correctly, and I adjust the ones in advance properties after the fact for good measure as well.
The problem was related to ulimits which causes a variety of poor behavior. Verify the server ulimit is set to at least 12K before running the install program OR attempting configuration.
