Answer for yesterday and new issue
Tags :Technical
I am attempting
to make sure I follow up on things I post and show some of the answers
more often. Well because I got some heat posting good topics and
having solutions but not always how. Just trying to make the blog
even more enticing.
Yesterday I mentioned an Adminp issue we were troubleshooting.
This one was quite simple in the end. For some reason the user
name was not being changed in a TeamRoom after a recertification was done.
Well come to find out, all the AdminP settings were left at the default.
For some reason this database was waiting until the default Sun at
12:00am to process the request. Basically treating it as a
delayed request. So after forcing everything to process in Adminp
and checking, all done. Needless to say we have modified their default
settings.
The new issue for today brings me to one of the most
feared pieces of Domino server tasks. The ICM !!!! (I can hear
the screams of horror and many of you running away from the keyboard in
droves thinking of the Internet Cluster Manager). Here is the scenario...........
The server was 5.011 and behind a firewall. We
moved it to a new firewall and went ahead and upgraded it to 6.01 just
for grins. OK, we weren't grinning for long. It stopped working
entirely. First was a port conflict warning that never existed before.
No configurations were changed at all except the Domino upgrade.
So I cheated so far and disabled the actual TCPIP port after Dave
F and I banged our heads on the desk forever.
sorry, lunchtime real quick, I will continue on shortly.....
OK, back from lunch, let's continue.
So at the last step we disabled the TCPIP port and restarted the ICMPORT.
Wham, I am running an unsupported Domino HTTP stack for the ICM through
a wonderful hack. We found doing show port commands that the primary
IP address was binding to port 80 before we stopped the port and the secondary
IP assigned to the ICM was only seeing 1352 as a bind. So after stopping
the TCP port, we were able to pick up 80 on the ICM.
