Configure new resource environment providers using scripting

 

You can use the wsadmin tool and scripting to configure new resources environment providers. 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 resource environment provider:

 

Procedure

1. Identify the parent ID and assign it to the node variable.

   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 ResourceEnvironmentProvider
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.required('ResourceEnvironmentProvider')
     

   Example output:

   Attribute     Type name     String
   

3. Set up the required attributes and assign it to the repAttrs variable:

   Use Jacl:

   set n1 [list name REP1] set repAttrs [list $name]
   

   • Use Jython:

     n1 = ['name', 'REP1'] repAttrs = [n1]
     

4. Create a new resource environment provider:

   Use Jacl:

   set newrep [$AdminConfig create ResourceEnvironmentProvider $node $repAttrs]
   

   • Use Jython:

     newrep = AdminConfig.create('ResourceEnvironmentProvider', node, repAttrs) print newrep
     

   Example output:

   REP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#ResourceEnvironmentProvider_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.
