Kirk Lund resolved GEODE-1904.
------------------------------
       Resolution: Invalid
    Fix Version/s: 1.0.0-incubating

Closing this ticket because it's an invalid request. 

The current behavior is expected. If --server-port is not specified then start server will start a server on the default port 40404. If --server-port is specified then it will start a server on the specified port instead. In both cases, it will also start listening to additional ports that are specified in the cache.xml.

If a user wants to disable the default server on port 40404, then the user must specify --disable-default-server.

> 1) start a server with --server-port 40404
> 2) start a 2nd server without specifying --server-port or --disable-default-server but do specify --cache-xml containing a unique server port
> 3) start will fail due to assertAvailablePort
> The error will look something like:
> java.lang.RuntimeException: An IO error occurred while starting a Server in /dx2-office-dhcp32 on dx2-office-dhcp32[40404]: Network is unreachable; port (40404) is not available on localhost.
> Work-around is to specify --disable-default-server in step #2. This will cause it to skip assertAvailablePort(40404).
> I believe it's more intuitive to the user if we also make the change to skip assertAvailablePort(40404) if --cache-xml is specified when --server-port is not  specified.
