Hello friends,

Recently our team built a new Linux server with DataStage 7.5.x on it. We are planning to use clients installed on Windows servers to connect to the new server.
The problem is we don't know the port to be opened on the Linux server so as to initiate a client connection. The connection times out even when the server is up and running. I can connect to the server via Putty

Any help would be highly appreciated
Thanks a bunch in advance

Why not just check '/etc/services'? The default port for DataStage is 31538 but I'd suggest you verify there.

You also need to verify the connection daemon is up and running:

Code: Select all

ps -ef |grep dsrpcd |grep -v grep

Should return one line.

Thanks Craig
I was able to connect to the server after the network team opened the port and firewall
