The ba/client (GUI and command line), the scheduler and the web client read
their init options from the /baclient/dsm.opt file.
You can put a statement in the dsm.opt file to set a specific TCP/IP port
number for the ba/client and the scheduler to use:

TCPPORT  xxxx

If you don't specify, the default is 1500 for the ba/client, including GUI,
command line, and scheduler.


If you use the web client, you can specify its port number with:

HTTPPORT xxxx

The default is 1581.
