Configure new WebSphere queue connection factories using scripting

 

You can use scripting and the wsadmin tool to configure new queue connection factories in WAS. 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 WebSphere queue connection factory:

 

Procedure

1. Identify the parent ID:

   Use Jacl:

   set newjmsp [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/JMSProvider:JMSP1/]
   

   • Use Jython:

     newjmsp = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:myNode/JMSProvider:JMSP1/')  print newjmsp
     

   Example output:

   JMSP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#JMSProvider_1)
   

2. Get required attributes:

   Use Jacl:

   $AdminConfig required WASQueueConnectionFactory
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.required('WASQueueConnectionFactory')
     

   Example output:

   Attribute       Type name           String
   jndiName       String
   

3. Set up required attributes:

   Use Jacl:

   set name [list name WASQCF] set jndi [list jndiName jms/WASQCF] set mqcfAttrs [list $name $jndi]
   

   Example output:

   {name WASQCF} {jndiName jms/WASQCF}
   

   • Use Jython:

     name = ['name', 'WASQCF'] jndi = ['jndiName', 'jms/WASQCF'] mqcfAttrs = [name, jndi] print mqcfAttrs
     

     Example output:

     [[name, WASQCF], [jndiName, jms/WASQCF]]
     

4. Create was queue connection factories:

   Use Jacl:

   $AdminConfig create WASQueueConnectionFactory $newjmsp $mqcfAttrs
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.create('WASQueueConnectionFactory', newjmsp, mqcfAttrs)
     

   Example output:

   WASQCF(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#WASQueueConnectionFactory_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.
