What is igrid server - port 19000?

in flag

Recently our monitoring tools is reporting a port as down, the port number is 19000.

I have never seen this port before and I don't find out good information. Doing some tests, I've seen I can telnet it using localhost, but not ipaddres/hostname:

[root@server01 ~]# telnet 10.122.96.60 19000
Trying 10.122.96.84...
telnet: connect to address 10.122.96.60: Connection refused
[root@server01 ~]# telnet localhost 19000
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

Also, it is used by some java process and informix database:

[root@server01 ~]# lsof -iTCP:19000

What is this? How can I allow this port for remote connections (our monitoring tool)? Recently the server has migrated from physical machine to virtual machine and now the monitoring tool cannot reach this port.

The /etc/services has:

igrid           19000/tcp               # iGrid Server
igrid           19000/udp               # iGrid Server

You can try to use ss and ps commands to check further. Example of output, replace 12345 with your PID:

$ sudo ss -lntp | grep :19000
LISTEN  0  128  127.0.0.1:19000  0.0.0.0:*  users:(("program-name",pid=12345,fd=62))

$ sudo ps aux | grep 12345

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
