Stopping business-level applications with scripting

Use wsadmin and the BLAManagement command group to stop business-level applications.

There are two ways to complete this task. Use the BLAManagement command group for AdminTask or the scripts in the AdminBLA script library to stop the business-level applications.

 

• Use AdminTask to stop business-level applications.
  1. Launch the wsadmin scripting tool using the Jython scripting language.

  2. List the business-level applications in the environment.

     Use the listBLAs command to display a list of business-level applications in the environment...

     AdminTask.listBLAs()
     

     We can optionally specify the partial name of the business-level application of interest to display the configuration ID of the business-level application. The command accepts a partial business-level application name if the system matches the specified name to a unique configuration ID. Use the following example to set the configuration ID of the myBLA business-level application to the blaID variable:

     myBLA=AdminTask.listBLAs('-blaID BLA1')
     

  3. Determine the status of the business-level application.

     Use the getBLAStatus command to display the status of the business-level application of interest...

     AdminTask.getBLAStatus('-blaID myBLA')
     

     The command returns the status of the business-level application as STOPPED or RUNNING.

  4. Stop the running business-level application. Use the stopBLA command to stop the business-level application, as the following example demonstrates:

     AdminTask.stopBLA('-blaID myBLA')
     

     The command returns the following message if the system successfully stops the business-level application:

     BLA ID of stopped BLA if the BLA was not already stopped. 
     

• Use the Jython script library to stop business-level applications.
  1. Launch the wsadmin scripting tool using the Jython scripting language.

  2. List the business-level applications in the environment.

     Use the listBLAs script to display a list of business-level applications in the environment, using the following syntax:

     AdminBLA.listBLAs(blaName, displayDescription)
     

     You can specify one, both, or neither the blaName and displayDescription arguments. Use the blaName argument to specify the name of a specific business-level application, and the displayDescription argument to specify whether to display the description of each returned business-level application. Specify an empty string in place of arguments that you do not want to specify, as the following example demonstrates:

     AdminBLA.listBLAs("", "true")
     

  3. Stop the business-level application. Use the stopBLA script to stop the business-level application, using the following syntax:

     AdminBLA.stopBLA(blaName)
     

     Use the blaName argument to specify the name of the business-level application to stop...

     AdminBLA.stopBLA("myBLA")
