By default, Pulse Service Manager uses port 7100 and the two preceding ports (7099
and 7098) on every machine if you have a Pulse Master setup. That is, the server is at a
central location.
Note: If you want to modify the default port, ensure that its two preceding ports are also
available.
7. Run vista.bat (Windows) or vista (Linux) again. This is needed for Pulse to read the new
location.
Now that you have run Pulse Service Manager, MACHINE_X is a Pulse Master node.
8. Launch Allegro EDM Configuration Manager and configure to
Folder_A and, optionally, the updated location.
9. Configure the client startup script, .bat, to point to the 17.4
Cadence installation directory.
10. Navigate to the location of the 17.4 .bat (Pulse Master node)
and run adw_uprev to ensure that the database schema is up to date with the latest
Allegro EDM release.
