Work with activity session service properties files
We can use properties files to change activity session service configuration objects and custom properties.
Determine the changes to make to your activity session service configuration objects or custom properties.
Start wsadmin.sh.
To start wsadmin using the Jython language, run...
WP_PROFILE/bin/wsadmin -lang jython
Use a properties file, you can modify or delete an activity session service object. We can also create, modify, or delete activity session service custom properties.
Run administrative commands using wsadmin to change a properties file for an activity session service, validate the properties, and apply them to the configuration.
Actions for activity session service configuration objects. We can modify and delete activity session service objects.
Action Procedure create Not applicable modify Edit properties and then run applyConfigProperties. delete Run deleteConfigProperties. Deleting a property sets the default value, if there is a default value for the property. create Property Not applicable delete Property Not applicable
Actions for activity session service custom properties. We can create, modify, and delete activity session service custom properties.
Action Procedure create Not applicable modify Edit properties and then run applyConfigProperties to modify the value of an existing custom property. delete Not applicable create Property Set properties and then run applyConfigProperties to create a custom property. delete Property Specify the properties to delete in the properties file and then run deleteConfigProperties to delete an existing custom property. The properties file must contain only the properties to be deleted. Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:
AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')
Procedure
- Edit an activity session service properties file.
- Set ActivitySessionService object properties as needed.
Open an editor on an ActivitySessionService properties file. Modify the Environment Variables section to match the system and set any property value that needs to be changed. An example ActivitySessionService properties file follows:
# # Header # ResourceType=ActivitySessionService ImplementingResourceType=PMEServerExtension ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:Node=!{nodeName}:Server=!{serverName}:PMEServerExtension=:ActivitySessionService= AttributeInfo=activitySessionService # # #Properties # enable=false #boolean,default(false) context=null defaultTimeout=300 #integer,required,default(300) # EnvironmentVariablesSection # # #Environment Variables cellName=myCell04 serverName=server1 nodeName=myNode05- Set ActivitySessionService custom properties as needed.
To specify a custom property, edit the AttributeInfo value and properties values; for example:
# # Header # ResourceType=ActivitySessionService ImplementingResourceType=PMEServerExtension ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:Node=!{nodeName}:Server=!{serverName}:PMEServerExtension=:ActivitySessionService= AttributeInfo=properties(name,value) # # #Properties # existingProp=value newProp=newValue # EnvironmentVariablesSection # # #Environment Variables cellName=myCell04 serverName=server1 nodeName=myNode05- Run applyConfigProperties to change an activity session service configuration.
Run the applyConfigProperties command applies the properties file to the configuration. In this Jython example, the optional -reportFileName parameter produces a report named report.txt:
AdminTask.applyConfigProperties(['-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt'])
- If you no longer need the activity session service or an existing custom property, you can delete the entire activity session service object or the custom property.
- To delete the entire object, run deleteConfigProperties for example:
AdminTask.deleteConfigProperties('[-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt]')
- To delete a custom property, specify only the property to be deleted in the properties file and then run deleteConfigProperties.
Results
We can use the properties file to manage the activity session service object and its properties.
What to do next
