Now SQL server browser is already running and requirement is to change the SQL port from Dynamic to static 1433.
We have been asked to do this port conversion from dynamic to static for the named SQL database instance whose port is 50177 and its cluster virtual IP is 10.8.38.96
Per the link:-
If the TCP Dynamic Ports dialog box contains 0, indicating the Database Engine is listening on dynamic ports, delete the 0
So we have to remove the 0
In the IPn Properties area box, in theTCP Port box, type the port number you want this IP address to listen on, and then clickOK.
SO after removing 0 we have to type 1433 on TCP PORT field of IP5
Now from IP1 to IP10 we have all the TCP Dynamic ports as 0 ( should we remove all these zeroes) and add 1433 on theTCP portOr doing this only for the cluster virtual IP alone would be enough.
In the same link we have a person stating this
Additional changes need to be made to the IPALL section
In my case I had to also update the ports located in the IPAll section. I had to clear the Dynamic Ports box, and fill in the TCP Port to match the settings I assigned to the IP address. This may only apply to clustered instances where each named instance has a separate IP address.
SO we have to do this on IPALL section as well. Is that right?
Now from IP1 to IP10 we have all the TCP Dynamic ports as 0 ( should we remove all these zeroes) and add 1433 , can someone one confirm on this ?
