Running administrative commands
Jython scripts are used to administer the Communities feature. These scripts allow the administrator to view Communities data and perform administrative tasks for Communities.
Administrative commands interact with the Communities feature and its resources through scripts. These scripts use the AdminControl object available in the IBM WebSphere Application Server wsadmin tool to interact with the Communities server. Each script uses managed Java™ beans (MBeans) to perform administrative tasks.If an error occurs when you are executing the MBean commands, you can examine the SystemOut.log file to determine what went wrong.
Unlike with configuration properties, when you use administrative commands you do not have to check out any files or restart the server. The commands are executed and take effect immediately.
