In Windows, the AdminServer runs as a service. The AdminServer is configured to start automatically. However, you can choose to change the listening port for the AdminServer as shown in the following code fragment from the AdminServer rmi registry:
[PluginPolicy.Progress.AdminServer]
pluginclasspath=!{value-of:classpath}
classpath=$DLC/java/...
#In the following code snipit, the port sets the AdminServer rmi registry port
number, the adminport sets the database plugin port, and the jvmargs sets the
database log level to the maximum setting allowed.
port=4321
adminport=7899
Note that if you specify values for the -port on the command line, these values override values defined in the %DLC/properties/AdminServerPlugins.properties file.
