How to change PORT 8000 for omaws32.exe
Hi,
I've a server 2650 with the Dell Management software.
Unfortunately, process omaws32.exe is using port 8000.
I need to use this port for another application.
How can I modify the settings for this process.
I've checked all menu without success.
Help is warmly welcomed !
Eric

If port 8000 is in use during the installation of OpenManage, it will assign the next highest available port to that process. Since that was not the case in your instance, you may need to uninstall OpenManage, (reboot as needed,) and then make sure that the application that you need to use port 8000 is actively running and using port 8000, during the OpenManage Server Administrator installation.
I would advise using the "netstat -o -n" command to lookup what Process IDs are using what ports, and then you can compare those process ID's with their associated processes in Task Manager. Make sure your application is using port 8000 before starting the install; after the install you can use netstat to make sure that it is still assigned port 8000, and you should see OMAWS32.EXE using 8001 or 8002, etc., as was the next available port.

I've found a solution ... Let me share it with you :
" Stop "Server Administrator" service (versions 1.0 - 1.2.3) or "Secure Port Server" (versions 1.3 and above)
Edit the file Program Files\Dell\openmanage\oldiags\lib\OmahaLoader.properties
Search for and change the entry "registryPort" to a new base port number that will not be in use by another service on the system. Start the Server Administrator service "
Hooping that will help others users ...
Thanks anyway !
Have fun !
