HP Web Jetadmin Web Service

HP Web Jetadmin can run on a multi-homed server or on a server that has multiple network interfaces. In many cases, a multi-homed server is connected to more than one network and has multiple IP addresses. A multi-homed server with multiple IP addresses can cause problems because HP Web Jetadmin tends to use only one address for various reasons.

HP Web Jetadmin is a collection of features that administrators can use to manage devices. Each of these features might require communications on the network or convey the IP address through which communications should take place to other features either on or off the HP Web Jetadmin server. These features facilitate learning the HP Web Jetadmin server IP address when the HPWJA service starts. These features do so in isolation and might not select the correct IP address. The following sections describe situations where features might not detect and select the correct IP address and provide a workaround that forces HP Web Jetadmin to select the correct IP address.

HP Web Jetadmin Client Connection

The HP Web Jetadmin client startup is initiated through HTTP by using Internet Explorer. Immediately after the startup sequence, the HP Web Jetadmin client sends the client host an HTTP message that points to

a .NET remote connection. The client host then initiates a relatively secure connection to the

HP Web Jetadmin server based on this communication. If the HP Web Jetadmin server is multi-homed and the HPWJA service selects the wrong IP address, this .NET remote connection fails because the system that hosts the client cannot communicate through the IP address provided. Follow these steps to force the HPWJA service to use the correct IP address:

1.Stop the HPWJA service by using Windows Service Manager.

NOTE: Be careful when stopping the HPWJA service. There might be critical tasks running. To view the running tasks in HP Web Jetadmin, go to Application Management > Overview > Application Management - Active Tasks. To view the client logins in HP Web Jetadmin, go to Application Management > Overview > Client Management - Active Clients.

2.Use Notepad or a similar editor to open the following configuration file:

C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\Web Jetadmin 10\config\WjaService\System.Remoting.config

NOTE: Make sure that Notepad is running with sufficient privileges to update and save the file.

3.Find the following code in the System.Remoting.config file:

<application>

<channels>

<channel ref="tcp" port="4088" name="CMRemotingChannel" rejectRemoteRequests="false"
