When using Admin | File Servers to change the hostname or port of an existing File Server, a File Server Status dialog like the following may be shown: What does this mean and how can it be fixed?
Open the dm.cfg on the client and locate the variable DM_WEB_URL (create new if it is not there). Make sure this is set to the correct value (http(s)://<server>:< port >), e.g.
When attempting to perform a Build from either the Desktop Client or Admin Console the build fails with an error of: Failed to authenticate to the build agent (<servername>:671) (check password) The Agent that Build is trying to connect to is using a non-standard default port of 672.
The increased security enhancements also include the new authentication feature, available both from command line (AUTH) and GUI , to allow a user to identify themselves on a tertiary UNIX, Windows or OS/390 node. Authentication lasts during the life of a session, and users must re-authenticate on re-invocation of the tool.
Some configuration work must be done before running this tool. First, a port must be defined for the diagnost listener in the services file on the server
At the bottom(Status Bar) of Desktop Client shows message “Connecting to Dimensions app server [<server name>:<server port number>]". This message is incorrect. It tried to connect wrong server and port number.
