Configure new J2C resource adapters using scripting

 

Use scripting to configure new J2C resource adapters in WebSphere Application Server. Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Start the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

 

Overview

Perform the following steps to configure a new J2C resource adapter:

 

Procedure

1. Identify the parent ID and assign it to the node variable. The following example uses the node configuration object as the parent. You can modify this example to use the cell, cluster, server, or application configuration object as the parent.

   Use Jacl:

   set node [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/]
   

   • Use Jython:

     node = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/') print node
     

   Example output:

   mynode(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|node.xml#Node_1)
   

2. Identify the required attributes:

   Use Jacl:

   $AdminConfig required J2CResourceAdapter
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.required('J2CResourceAdapter')
     

   Example output:

   Attribute     Type name         String
   

3. Set up the required attributes:

   Use Jacl:

   set rarFile c:/currentScript/cicseci.rar set option  [list  -rar.name  RAR1]
   

   Use Jython:

   rarFile = 'c:/currentScript/cicseci.rar' option  = '[-rar.name  RAR1]'
   

4. Create a resource adapter:

   Use Jacl:

   set newra [$AdminConfig installResourceAdapter $rarFile mynode $option]
   

   • Use Jython:

     newra = AdminConfig.installResourceAdapter(rarFile, 'mynode', option) print newra
     

   Example output:

   RAR1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#J2CResourceAdapter_1)
   

5. Save the configuration changes. See the Saving configuration changes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.

6. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node. See the Synchronizing nodes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.
