Example: Migrating - Allowing configuration overwrite when saving a configuration

The following examples demonstrate how to enable configuration overwrite in network deployment for WAS V5.x and V6.x:

$AdminConfig setSaveMode overwriteOnConflict

Jython

AdminConfig.setSaveMode('overwriteOnConflict')

wsadmin V6.x

Enable configuration repository to allow configuration overwrite:

Jacl

set s1AdminService [$AdminConfig getid /Server:dmgr/AdminService:/]

set configRepository [$AdminConfig showAttribute $s1AdminService configRepository]
set props [$AdminConfig showAttribute $configRepository properties]
set foundAllowConfigOverwrites ""
if {$props != "{}"} {
  foreach prop $props {
    if {[$AdminConfig showAttribute $prop name] == "allowConfigOverwrites"} {
      set foundAllowConfigOverwrites $prop
      break
    }
  }
}

if {$foundAllowConfigOverwrites == ""} {
  $AdminConfig create Property $configRepository {{name allowConfigOverwrites} {value true}}
} else {
  $AdminConfig modify $foundAllowConfigOverwrites {{value true}}
}

$AdminConfig save

Jython

s1AdminService = AdminConfig.getid('/Server:dmgr/AdminService:/')
configRepository = AdminConfig.showAttribute(s1AdminService, 'configRepository')
props = AdminConfig.showAttribute(configRepository, 'properties')
foundAllowConfigOverwrites = ''
if props != '[]':
  properties = props[1:len(props)-1].split(' ')
  for prop in properties:
    name = AdminConfig.showAttribute(prop, 'name')
    if name == 'allowConfigOverwrites':
      foundAllowConfigOverwrites = prop
      break

if len(foundAllowConfigOverwrites) != 0:
  AdminConfig.modify(foundAllowConfigOverwrites, [['value', 'true']])
else:
  AdminConfig.create('Property', configRepository, [['name', 'allowConfigOverwrites'], ['value', 'true']])

AdminConfig.save()

Restart the deployment manager. From the bin directory of the deployment manager profile, run the following:
On Windows platforms
```
stopManager 
startManager
```
On Unix platforms
```
./stopManager.sh
./startManager.sh
```

Allow configuration overwrite, for example:

Jacl

$AdminConfig setSaveMode overwriteOnConflict

Jython

AdminConfig.setSaveMode('overwriteOnConflict')
