Commands for the AdminConfig object

Use the AdminConfig object to invoke configuration commands and to create or change elements of the WAS configuration, for example, creating a data source.

We can start the scripting client without a running server, if we only want to use local operations. To run in local mode, use the -conntype NONE option to start the scripting client. You receive a message that we are running in the local mode. If a server is currently running, running the AdminConfig tool in local mode is not recommended. This is because any configuration changes made in local mode will not be reflected in the running server configuration and vice versa. If we save a conflicting configuration, you could corrupt the configuration.

In a dmgr environment, configuration updates are available only if a scripting client is connected to a dmgr.

When connected to a node agent or a managed appserver, you will not be able to update the configuration because the configuration for these server processes are copies of the master configuration which resides in the dmgr. The copies are created on a node machine when a configuration synchronization occurs between the dmgr and the node agent. Make configuration changes to the server processes by connecting a scripting client to a dmgr. For this reason, to change a configuration, do not run a scripting client in local mode on a node machine. It is not a supported configuration.

We might have to convert the Jython output from a string to a list for further processing.

Examples...

• Jacl...

  $AdminConfig showall "Default Datasource(cells/mycell/nodes/DefaultNode/servers/server1:resources.xml#DataSource_1)"

• Jython...

  print AdminConfig.showall ("Default Datasource(cells/mycell/nodes/DefaultNode/servers/server1:resources.xml#DataSource_1)")

 

showAttribute

Display only the value for the single attribute specified.

Required parameters

configuration ID

Configuration ID of the object of interest.

attribute

Attribute to query.

Sample output...

The output of this command is different from the output of the show command when a single attribute is specified. The showAttribute command does not display a list that contains the attribute name and value. It only displays the attribute value...

mynode

Examples...

• Jacl...

  set ns [$AdminConfig getid /Node:mynode/]
  $AdminConfig showAttribute $ns hostName

• Jython...

  ns = AdminConfig.getid('/Node:mynode/')
  print AdminConfig.showAttribute(ns, 'hostName')

 

types

Return a list of the configuration object types that we can manipulate. Use wildcard characters (*) or Java regular expressions (.*) in the command syntax to customize the search query.

Sample output...

Returns a list of object types...

AdminService Agent ApplicationConfig ApplicationDeployment ApplicationServer AuthMechanism AuthenticationTarget AuthorizationConfig AuthorizationProvider AuthorizationTableImpl BackupCluster CMPConnectionFactory CORBAObjectNameSpaceBinding Cell CellManager Classloader ClusterMember ClusteredTarget CommonSecureInteropComponent

Examples...

The following examples return each object type in the configuration:

• Jacl...

  $AdminConfig types

• Jython...

  print AdminConfig.types()

The following examples return each object type in the configuration that contains the security string:

• Jacl...

  $AdminConfig types *security*

• Jython...

  print AdminConfig.types('*security*')

 

uninstallResourceAdapter

Uninstall a J2C resource adapter with the given J2C resource adapter configuration ID and an option list. When you remove a J2CResourceAdapter object from the configuration repository, the installed directory will be removed at the time of synchronization.

A stop request will be sent to the J2CResourceAdapter MBean that was removed.

Required parameters

configuration ID

Configuration ID of the resource adapter to remove.

Optional parameters

options list

Uninstall options for command. The valid option is force. This option forces the uninstallation of the resource adapter without checking whether the resource adapter is being used by an application. The application using it will not be uninstalled. If we do not specify the force option and the specified resource adapter is still in use, the resource adapter is not uninstalled.

Sample output...

Returns the configuration ID of the J2C resource adapter that is removed...

WASX7397I:

The following J2CResourceAdapter objects are removed: MyJ2CRA(cells/juniarti/nodes/juniarti|resources.xml#J2CResourceAdapter_1069433028609)

Examples...

• Jacl...

  set j2cra [$AdminConfig getid /J2CResourceAdapter:MyJ2CRA/]
  $AdminConfig uninstallResourceAdapter $j2cra {-force}
  $AdminConfig save

• Jython...

  j2cra = AdminConfig.getid('/J2CResourceAdapter:MyJ2CRA/')
  print AdminConfig.uninstallResourceAdapter(j2cra, '[-force]')
  AdminConfig.save()

 

unsetAttributes

Reset specific attributes for a configuration object to the default values.

Required parameters

configuration ID

Configuration ID of the configuration object of interest.

attributes

Attributes to reset to the default values.

Examples...

• Jacl...

  set cluster [$AdminConfig getid /ServerCluster:myCluster]
  $AdminConfig unsetAttributes $cluster {"enableHA", "preferLocal"}

• Jython...

  cluster = AdminConfig.getid("/ServerCluster:myCluster")
  AdminConfig.unsetAttributes(cluster, ["enableHA", "preferLocal"])

 

validate

Request the configuration validation results based on the files in the workspace, the value of the cross-document validation enabled flag, and the validation level setting. Optionally, we can specify a configuration ID to set the scope. If we specify a configuration ID, the scope of this request is the object named by the configuration ID parameter.

Required parameters: None.

Optional parameters

configuration ID

Configuration ID of the object of interest.

Sample output...

WASX7193I: Validation results are logged in...

c:\WebSphere5\AppServer\logs\wsadmin.valout

Total number of messages: 16
WASX7194I: Number of messages of severity 1: 16

Examples...

• Jacl...

  $AdminConfig validate

• Jython...

  print AdminConfig.validate()
