Hi Guys,
Do anyone know how to reset the cached ports ( /etc/services) in SAP without restarting sap ?
Issue :
1) in one of the application server , the entry was wrongly made in the past
sapmsBIP 3200/tcp ---> This is wrong
2) I had changed this to 3600
sapmsBIP 3600/tcp
3) It works perfectly from OS level
XXXXXX:bepadm 67> lgtst -H <hostname> -S sapmsBIP
using trcfile: dev_lg
list of reachable application servers
-------------------------------------
[XXXXX_BIP_00] [XXXX] [10.10.51.27] [sapdp00] [3200] [DIA UPD BTC UP2 ICM ]
[XXXXX_BIP_00] [XXXX] [10.10.51.24] [sapdp00] [3200] [DIA UPD BTC UP2 ICM ]
[XXXXX_BIP_00] [XXXX] [10.10.51.23] [sapdp00] [3200] [DIA UPD BTC SPO UP2 ICM ]
list of selectable logon groups with favorites
------------------------------------------------
[BI Production System] [XXXXXX] [3200] [730]
[BI_PARALLEL] [XXXXX] [3200] [730]
[SPACE] [XXXXX] [3200] [730]

4) Still SAP thinks , it has to reach 3200

I am very positive the restart will solve as per forums and notes etc., But still wanted to try without SAP restart if possible:-)
