BusinessObjects Enterprise Administrator's Guide

Configuring the CMS on UNIX

To configure the CMS on UNIX

1. Run ccm.sh.

By default the script and the ccm.config file are installed in the Business Objects install directory, for example /export/home/businessobjects.

2. Stop the Central Management Server.
3. Edit the ccm.config file to insert the following command line:

-port FQDN:6400 -requestport portnum

For the -port command, replace FQDN with the fully qualified domain name of the machine that is running the CMS. This machine must be routable from the application server.

For the -requestport command, substitute any valid free port number for portnum.

4. Use ccm.sh to start the Central Management Server.
