HTTPTransport policy and binding properties
Use the -attributes parameter for the setPolicyType and setBinding commands to specify additional configuration information for the HTTPTransport policy and policy set binding. Application and system policy sets can use the HTTPTransport policy and binding.
Use the following commands and parameters in the PolicySetManagement group of the AdminTask object to customize your policy set configuration.
- Use the -attributes parameter for the getPolicyType
and getBinding commands to view the properties for your policy and binding configuration.
To get an attribute, pass the property name to the getPolicyType or getBinding command.
- Use the -attributes parameter for the setPolicyType
and setBinding commands to add, update, or remove properties from your policy and binding configurations.
To add or update an attribute, specify the property name and value. The setPolicyType and setBinding commands update the value if the attribute exists, or adds the attribute and value if the attribute does not exist.
To remove an attribute, specify the value as an empty string (""). The -attributes parameter accepts a properties object.
If a property name or value supplied with the -attributes parameter is not valid, then the setPolicyType and setBinding commands fail with an exception. The property that is not valid is logged as an error or warning in the SystemOut.log file. However, the command exception might not contain the detailed information for the property that caused the exception. When the setPolicyType and setBinding commands fail, examine the SystemOut.log file for any error and warning messages that indicate that the input for the -attributes parameter contains one or multiple properties that are not valid.
New feature: Beginning in WAS v8.0 you can configure the server to use the HPEL log and trace infrastructure instead of using SystemOut.log , SystemErr.log, trace.log, and activity.log files or native z/OS logging facilities. If you are using HPEL, you can access all of your log and trace information using the LogViewer command-line tool from your server profile bin directory. See the information about using HPEL to troubleshoot applications for more information on using HPEL.New feature:
For transitioning users: In WebSphere Application Server v7.0 and later, the security model was enhanced
to a domain-centric security model instead of a server-based security model. The configuration of the default global security (cell) level and default server level bindings has also changed in this version of the product. In the WAS v6.1 Feature
Pack for Web Services, you can configure one set of default bindings for the cell and optionally configure one set of default bindings for each server. In v7.0 and later, you can configure one or more general service provider bindings and one or more general service client bindings. After we have configured general bindings, you can specify which of these bindings is the global default binding. You can also optionally specify general binding that are used as the default for an application server or a security domain. trns
To support a mixed-cell environment, WebSphere Application Server supports v7.0 and v6.1 bindings. General cell-level bindings are specific to v7.0 and later Application-specific bindings remain at the version that the application requires. When the user creates an application-specific binding, the application server determines the required binding version to use for application.
The following sections explain the policy and binding properties to configure:
HTTPTransport policy properties
The HTTPTransport policy set can be used for HTTPS, basic authorization, compression, and binary encoding transport methods.
Configure the HTTPTransport policy by specifying the following attributes with the setPolicyType command:
The following setPolicyType example command sets values for each HTTPTransport binding property:
AdminTask.setPolicyType('[-policySet "WSHTTPS custom" -policyType HTTPTransport
-attributes "[[protocolVersion HTTP/1.1]
[sessionEnable yes][chunkTransferEnc yes][sendExpectHeader yes]
[compressRequest:name gzip][compressResponse:name
gzip][acceptRedirectionURL yes][messageResendOnce no][connectTimeout
300][writeTimeout 300]
[readTimeout 300][persistConnection yes]]"]')
HTTPTransport binding properties
Configure the HTTPTransport binding by specifying the following attributes with the setBinding command:
The following setBinding example command sets values for each HTTPTransport binding property:
AdminTask.setBinding('[-bindingLocation "" -bindingName generalCellWideBind1 -policyType
HTTPTransport
-attributes "[[outAsyncResponseBasicAuth:userid myID][outAsyncResponseBasicAuth:password
myPW][outAsyncResponseProxy:host hostname]
[outAsyncResponseProxy:port 9060][outAsyncResponseProxy:userid myID]
[outAsyncResponseProxy:password myPW]
[outRequestBasicAuth:userid myID][outRequestBasicAuth:password myPW]
[outRequestProxy:userid myID]
[outRequestProxy:password myPW][outRequestProxy:port 9061][outRequestProxy:host
hostname]]"]')
WSHTTPS default policy set
Configure application and system policy sets for web services using wsadmin.sh
