Hi Hugo, BMC only have purposed to upgrade Midtier, but not to configure the ARTCPPORT. I mean, we have turned off the Register-With-Portmapper in these preproduction server, but if we don´t configure the ARTCPPORT on each client, they get a RPC timeout. I can´t understand why, but if we turn it off clients turn it on, if we turn Register-With-Portmapper on, clients only use TCD-Specific-Port, so we have purposed to configure an environment variable (ARTCPPORT) via sms to every non-web clients. We only have one production server, so we have to be totally convinced to introduce changes on production environment, it´s critical for us.
Finally, the solution appears to consist in upgrade Midtier, turn off Register-With-Portmapper and configure ARTCPPORT for every ARS clients. What do you think about it? I can´t risk. How can I set the ARTCPPORT variable on Midtier startup? Regards, Enrique. Hugo Visser-3 wrote: > > OK, one thing to note that setting a server port does not override the use > of a portmapper.
