Specifying port values

The value range for CLEARCASE_MIN_PORT is 1024 through 65534, and the value range for CLEARCASE_MAX_PORT is 1025 through 65535. The value of CLEARCASE_MAX_PORT must be greater than the value of CLEARCASE_MIN_PORT.

About this task

Note: Use the range 49152 through 65535, which is the Dynamic/Private Port Range.
To specify minimum and maximum port values on Linux® and the UNIX® system, set the CLEARCASE_MIN_PORT and CLEARCASE_MAX_PORT environment variables in either of the following places:
  • The shipping.conf file on the exposed host. For more information, see the shipping.conf reference page.
  • The versionvault script on the exposed host:
    1. Edit the file versionvault-home-dir/etc/versionvault.
    2. Add the following lines, replacing min-port and max-port with your minimum and maximum port values. These lines must precede the section that starts the albd_server. 
      #
# Set values for minimum and maximum port numbers
#
CLEARCASE_MIN_PORT=min-port 
CLEARCASE_MAX_PORT=max-port 
export CLEARCASE_MIN_PORT
export CLEARCASE_MAX_PORT
To specify minimum and maximum port values on Windows®:
  1. On the exposed host, open Control Panel and click the System icon.
  2. Create two system environment variables, CLEARCASE_MIN_PORT and CLEARCASE_MAX_PORT, and specify their values.
