Information

Web servers provide numerous processes, features, and functionalities that use TCP/IP ports. Some of these processes may be deemed unnecessary or too unsecure to run on a production system. The ports that the ESX Agent Manager listens on are configured in the 'catalina.properties' file and must be verified as accurate to their shipping state.

Solution

Navigate to and open:

/etc/vmware-eam/catalina.properties

Navigate to the ports specification section.

Set the ESX Agent Manager port specifications according to the following:

bio.http.port=15005
