can't use communication between partitions first port 5914

[Former Member]

Dear all,

Fristly i install a nw702-java system with DB2V9.7 use the communication between partitions first port5914.And then we unistall the system due to some special reason. when we install the system again we find the communication between partitions first port change to 6000 and the last port change to 60003,but it's very strange the fisrt port is default set to 60000 we can't change it to 5914 and the last port default set to 60003 we can change it.We want to change the two ports to 5914 and 5917 as our planning.Can anyone kindly help me to solve it?By the way we didn't use NIS services and our OS plartform is Linux-x86. The attachment is the system screenshot.Thanks!

Please make sure you have the following entries are present in the /etc/services file

sapdb2<SID>	5912/tcp	# SAP DB2 Communication Port
DB2_db2<sid>	5914/tcp
DB2_db2<sid>_1	5915/tcp
DB2_db2<sid>_2	5916/tcp
DB2_db2<sid>_END	5917/tcp

Make sure the port 5914(or any of the above ports) is not being listed in the /etc/services for any other service . If present comment it out.

yes,dear i have checked /etc/services many times and didn't have anythins used these ports.I'm so confused that i can't choose the port and the first port is deafult set to 60000 i can't change it.Below  part of our services file

Make sure in the /etc/services file the following is set

sapdb2<SID>	5912/tcp	# SAP DB2 Communication Port
DB2_db2<sid>	5914/tcp
DB2_db2<sid>_1	5915/tcp
DB2_db2<sid>_2	5916/tcp
DB2_db2<sid>_END	5917/tcp

60000 might have been for DB2_db2<sid> .

Hash all ports which are mentioned above for any other service.

Stop sapinst and restart again .
