Customize Cluster Name and Ports

Use the Customize Cluster Name and Ports page to customize the names and the starting port of the clusters and cluster members.

For the Deployment Environment Configuration wizard: Servers > Deployment Environments > New and complete each preceding configuration page.

The Customize Cluster Name and Ports page applies to the cluster type (for example, Application Deployment Target, Messaging Infrastructure, Supporting Infrastructure) that you are configuring for the deployment environment.

Note: Ensure that the starting port numbers you specify are at least 20 ports apart. Port numbers are reserved and assigned to each node for the cluster members using the port number that is specified. If you specify an initial port when you create the deployment environment, that same initial port specified would be assigned to the cluster member. For example, if the port number for the first cluster member is 2000, it would use the port numbers 2000, 2001, 2002, and so on. The port number of the second cluster member would be 2020 and the port numbers would be 2020, 2021, 2022, and so on. The port number of the third cluster member would be 2040.

The page includes information on the following sections:

The table lists the cluster members that are included in the cluster that you are configuring. The cluster types that are available depend on the deployment environment pattern that you selected. If you selected Single Cluster pattern, only the Application Cluster is available. If you selected Application, Remote Messaging, and Remote Support pattern, the Application Cluster, Remote Messaging Cluster, and Remote Support Cluster is available.

The number of cluster member names that display in the table match the number of cluster members that you entered for the cluster type column and node row on the Define Clusters page.

Column headings and row content are as follows:
Application Cluster
Specifies information for defining the application cluster for the node.
Cluster Name
Contains the system-generated default value for the cluster name. You can update the cluster name using this field. The default value is based on a naming convention of Deployment_Environment_Name.Application_Cluster_Name.
Cluster member details
The table displays and allows you to configure the cluster members. The following fields are displayed in the table.
Table 1. Application Cluster Member
Field Description
Node Name A read-only field that displays the node name.
Cluster Member Name Contains the application cluster member name. You can update the name using this field. The default value is based on a naming convention of Deployment_Environment_Name.Application_Cluster Name.Node_Name.Member_Number. For example, MyDE.AppTarget.Node1.0.
Starting Port Specify the starting port for the first application cluster member. To use the default number, either leave this field blank or enter the default port number.
Note: Ensure that the port numbers specified have an interval of 20.
Remote Messaging Cluster
Specifies information for defining the remote messaging cluster for the node.
Cluster Name
Contains the system-generated default value for the cluster name. You can update the cluster name using this field. The default value is based on a naming convention of Deployment_Environment_Name.Remote_Messaging_Cluster_Name.
Cluster member details
The table displays and allows you to configure the cluster members. The following fields are displayed in the table.
Table 2. Remote Messaging Cluster Member
Field Description
Node Name A read-only field that displays the node name.
Cluster Member Name Contains the remote messaging cluster member name. You can update the name using this field. The default value is based on a naming convention of Deployment_Environment_Name.Remote_Messaging_Cluster_Name.Node_Name.Member_Number. For example, MyDE.Messaging.Node1.0.
Starting Port Specify the starting port for the first remote messaging cluster member. To use the default number, either leave this field blank or enter the default port number.
Note: Ensure that the port numbers specified have an interval of 20.
Remote Support Cluster
Specifies information for defining the remote support cluster for the node.
Cluster Name
Contains the system-generated default value for the cluster name. You can update the cluster name using this field. The default value is based on a naming convention of Deployment_Environment_Name.Remote_Support_Cluster_Name.
Cluster member details
The table displays and allows you to configure the cluster members. The following fields are displayed in the table.
Table 3. Remote Support Cluster Member
Field Description
Node Name A read-only field that displays the node name.
Cluster Member Name Contains the remote support cluster member name. You can update the name using this field. The default value is based on a naming convention of Deployment_Environment_Name.Remote_Support_Cluster_Name.Node_Name.Member_Number. For example, MyDE.Support.Node1.0.
Starting Port Specify the starting port for the first remote support cluster member. To use the default number, either leave this field blank or enter the default port number.
Note: Ensure that the port numbers specified have an interval of 20.
