    ... 18 more Verify if the TIBCO Spotfire Server and Node managers machines can communicate:

  • Check if the TIBCO Spotfire Server can ping and Telnet to the Node Manager server on the ports 9501 or 9502. You can refer to the log snippet and verify the connectivity based on what port it is failing. For example, based on the above error message you can run the syntax "telnet 10.220.181.61 9502" from Spotfire Server machine and verify if you are able to connect. See below screenshot for your reference:User-added image

If it fails with "Connect failed" message, please verify if the port is open and that you are able to communicate:

  •  Check if there is any firewall rules that is blocking the communication between Spotfire Server and Node Manager.
