Listing attributes of configuration objects using the wsadmin tool

Overview

1. Invoke the AdminConfig object commands interactively, in a script, or use the wsadmin -c command from an operating system command prompt.

2. List the attributes of a given configuration object type, using the attributes command, for example:

   Using Jacl:

   $AdminConfig attributes type

   Using Jython:

   AdminConfig.attributes('type')

   where:

   $	is a Jacl operator for substituting a variable name with its value
   AdminConfig	is an object representing the WebSphere Application Server configuration
   attributes	is an AdminConfig command
   type	is an object type

   
   
   This command returns a list of attributes and its data type.

   To get a list of attributes for the JDBCProvider type, use the following example command:

   Using Jacl:

   $AdminConfig attributes JDBCProvider
   

   Using Jython:

   AdminConfig.attributes('JDBCProvider')

3. List the required attributes of a given configuration object type, using the required command, for example:

   Using Jacl:

   $AdminConfig required type

   Using Jython:

   AdminConfig.required('type')

   where:

   $	is a Jacl operator for substituting a variable name with its value
   AdminConfig	is an object representing the WebSphere Application Server configuration
   required	is an AdminConfig command
   type	is an object type

   
   
   This command returns a list of required attributes.

   To get a list of required attributes for the JDBCProvider type, use the following example command:

   Using Jacl:

   $AdminConfig required JDBCProvider

   Using Jython:

   AdminConfig.required('JDBCProvider')

4. List attributes with defaults of a given configuration object type, using the defaults command, for example:

   Using Jacl:

   $AdminConfig defaults type

   Using Jython:

   AdminConfig.defaults('type')

   where:

   $	is a Jacl operator for substituting a variable name with its value
   AdminConfig	is an object representing the WebSphere Application Server configuration
   defaults	is an AdminConfig command
   type	is an object type

   
   
   This command returns a list of all attributes, types, and defaults.

   To get a list of attributes with defaults displayed for the JDBCProvider type, use the following example command:

   Using Jacl:

   $AdminConfig defaults JDBCProvider

   Using Jython:

   AdminConfig.defaults('JDBCProvider')
