[AG-TECH] One-page summary of AG port usage -- please help us complete it

[R. P. Channing ["Rick"] Rodgers]

Exactly!  :)

Actually, the problem you raise in a humorous way is why I put out the list,
and the call for help in completing it.  I am in *exactly* the same situation
you are in, trying to set up an AG cluster in a medical facility (UCSF) where
I have collaborators.  It has been stalled for MONTHS now, because the
local administrators run a very restrictive setup, and we have not been
able to give them a clear, concise list of what ports have to be opened.
It's been very frustrating, and has brought our collaboration to a halt.
If I didn't have so many other pulls on my time, I'd sit down and read the
source code for vic, rat, and the AG framework to try to figure out what
ports are being used, but that seems ridiculous when I know that some active
developer could probably do that in minutes (as opposed to my hours).
I pray that someone will do just that, it would be a terrific service to the
entire AG community!

Best Regards, Rick Rodgers

eventually
