Manage generic servers using scripting

 

Overview

A generic server is a server that the WAS manages but did not supply. Use WAS to define, start, stop, and monitor generic servers.

 

Steps for this task (dependent on configuration)

• Start wsadmin

• To define a generic server, use the following example:

  • Jacl

    $AdminTask createGenericServer mynode {-name generic1 -ConfigProcDef 
    {{"/usr/bin/myStartCommand" "arg1 arg2" "" "" "/tmp/workingDirectory" "/tmp/stopCommand" "argy argz"}}}
    $AdminConfig save
    

  • Jython

    AdminTask.createGenericServer('mynode', '[-name generic1 -ConfigProcDef 
    [[c:\tmp\myStartCommand.exe "a b c" "" "" C:\tmp\myStopCommand "x y z"]]]')
    AdminConfig.save()
    

• To start a generic server, use the launchProcess parameter, for example:

  • Jacl

    set nodeagent [$AdminControl queryNames *:*,type=NodeAgent]
    $AdminControl invoke $nodeagent launchProcess generic1
    

  • Jython

    nodeagent = AdminControl.queryNames ('*:*,type=NodeAgent')
    AdminControl.invoke(nodeagent, 'launchProcess', 'generic1')
    

  Example output

  true
  

  or

  false
  

false
