Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.3

Situation

How to set the QuickTask port on the ZENworks managed device agent.  Note:  It is typically not necessary to change this from the default.

Resolution

Windows:  Modify the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Novell\ZCM\WEB_SERVER_PORT DWORD 
default (no entry) is 7628
XPlat (Mac and Linux):  Modify the properties file:
 /etc/opt/novell/zenworks/conf/xplatzmd.properties add WEB_SERVER_PORT=
default (no entry) is 7628

Additional Information

When the quick task port is changed on the device, the next refresh of the device will cause that information to flow up to the zone registration.  At that time the registration web service will update the device's database entry (zdevice.port) for the Quick Task port.  That is the port used by any ZCC Quick Task actions.
