unlock these network ports, the only option is to run HP SUM locally and update network-based hosts, such as the OA, iLO, and VC, through their web interfaces. The SOAP server that HP SUM launches uses ports 443 or 63006. You can define your own ports by modifying the hpsum.ini file. 1. Open hpsum.ini in a text editor. You can find the file in the same folder as the HP SUM application. 2. Look for the following lines: Port=443 AlternatePort=63006 3. Change the AlternatePort to a port free of another web service. NOTE: For security reasons, HP does not recommend changing the main port from port 443. Table 3 HP SUM Windows network ports Ports Port 443 Ports 445 and 137/138/139 (Port 137 is used only if you are using NetBIOS naming service.) Port 62286 Ports 80 or 63000-63006 Description A secure data port used to transfer information. Connects to the remote ADMIN$ share on target servers. These are the standard ports Windows servers use to connect to the remote file shares. If you can connect remotely to a remote Windows file share on the target server, then you have the right ports open. Default for some internal communications. This port listens on the remote side if there is no conflict. If a conflict occurs, the next available port is used. Logs are passed to the target and retrieved through an internal secure web server that uses port 80 if it is available. If it is not available, the Web server uses first available port in the range of 60000-63005. This support allows updates of the iLO and VC firmware without the need to access the host server. It also allows the servers to run VMware or other virtualization platforms to update the iLO firmware without requiring a server reboot or a migration of the virtual machines to other servers. NOTE: HP SUM attempts to determine if a server running HP SUM also hosts a web server. In some cases, HP SUM cannot detect an existing web server and attempts to use port 80. If this occurs, installations that are using HP SUM will fail. If failure occurs, you can move HP SUM to another server or workstation that is not already running a web server. You can also disable the web server until HP SUM installations are complete. Table 4 HP SUM Linux network ports Ports Port 22 Port 443 Port 62286 Ports 80 or 63006 Description Establishes a connection to the remote Linux server via SSH. For Integrity servers, HP SUM uses this port to discover target settings. A secure data port used to transfer information. Default for some internal communications. It listens on the remote side if there is no conflict. If a conflict occurs, the next available port is used. Updates are passed to the target and retrieved through an internal secure web server that uses port 80 if it is available or port 63006, if it is not. This support allows iLO and VC firmware updates without having to access the host server. It also allows servers running VMware or other virtualization platforms to update their iLO without having to reboot their server or to migrate their virtual machines to other servers. Using HP SUM 25
