Issue
Promotion of a replica fails in RSA Authentication Manager 8.1 in the pre-check stage.
The following errors are in the Planned-Promotion-Precheck-<datestamp>.log:
  
ERROR: The Operations Console on the primary instance is not reachable to check replication status or reachability with other replica instances. 

ERROR: Could not access HTTP invoker remote service at [https://myprimary_server_host_name. domain_name.com:7072/operations-console/dispatcher/HttpInvokerPlannedPromotion]; nested exception is org.apache.commons.httpclient.ConnectTimeoutException: The host did not accept the connection within timeout of 20000 ms

The following errors are in am/server/logs/ops-console.log:

Cause
The file Planned-Promotion-Precheck-<datestamp>.log clearly indicates that port 7072 is not open between the replica and primary server. 
 
ERROR: The Operations Console on the primary instance is not reachable to check replication status or reachability with other replica instances. 

Promotion activity on a replica, tries to connect to the primary's Operations Console and checks the following: 
  1. To verify replication status and reachability.
  2. To make sure that there are nobackups scheduled at the time of promotion. 
  3. To make sure that there are no conflicting operations currently in progress.
Resolution
Open port 7072 in addition to other ports described on page 96 of RSA Authentication Manager 8.1 SP1 Setup and Configuration Guide.
