You cannot connect to the Web interface. Your Web browser displays a "page cannot be displayed" or "connection was refused."message.
This issue happens when the OpsCenter Web interface (the OpsCenter console) is not running or is inaccessible on the network.
|
To connect to the Web interface Verify that the OpsCenter Web server Service is running. You can check the status of all OpsCenter processes on UNIX by entering the following command:
<INSTALL_PATH>/SYMCOpsCenterServer/bin/opsadmin.sh monitor
Verify that a Web browser on the OpsCenter server can connect to the OpsCenter console by using the following address: https://localhost/opscenter
By default, OpsCenter tries to run on port 443 (HTTPS). If port 443 is not available,
OpsCenter can use a different port. To learn more about the HTTPS ports that
OpsCenter uses, run the configurePorts utility. Run
the following command: On Windows: <INSTALL_PATH>\OpsCenter\gui\bin\goodies\configurePorts.bat -status
On UNIX: <INSTALL_PATH>/SYMCOpsCenterWebGUI/bin/goodies/configurePorts.sh
-status
