To verify that the ports are open, you can use a wget command, a web browser, or another method of your choice. If the port is open, the command returns the current status information. -
Resolution
In the following examples, replace <port#> with the applicable port number, and replace <hostName> with the IP address of the machine on which NVSD is installed.
The default ports required for client connection to SmartDisk are 37452 and 37453.- To use the wget command:
On the system on which NVSD is installed, type:
wget http://<localhost>:<port#>/proc/dedupe/stats.stnz

wget http://<hostName>:<port#>/proc/dedupe/stats.stnz
