Configuring ports

You can set a number of different ports using the file <foglight_home>/config/server.config, including mandatory ports required for Foglight to run.

For a list of these ports, their default values, and the configuration parameters you can use to set them in server.config, see the Administration and Configuration Help.

 
* 
NOTE: In certain configurations the Management Server may use ports in addition to the ones that you set using server.config; for example, when Foglight is running in High Availability (HA) mode. See the Administration and Configuration Guide for details.

Configuring the cluster multicast port used in High Availability mode

You can change the cluster multicast port that is used when Foglight is running in High Availability (HA) mode. Members of an HA cluster use this port to communicate with each other. For more information, see the High Availability Field Guide.

Setting up Foglight server federation

Federation is a Foglight feature that addresses the needs of customers who monitor large-scale environments that are naturally partitioned into logical units. Each of these partitions is traditionally served by one Management Server instance and its distributed clients and agents.

Federation enables you to use one Management Server to operate, while using other Management Server as the data source. For detailed information about Foglight federation and how to create a federated environment, see the Federation Field Guide.

 
* 
IMPORTANT: Federation is an advanced feature, which requires a dedicated Management Server separate from the Management Servers that are acting as data collectors. Contact Quest Professional Services to design and implement a federation strategy.

Setting the SQL Parser properties

The following default system properties appear in the server.config file. The port setting can be changed during the install process, or by editing the server.config file.
