Work with eviction policy properties files
We can use properties files to create, modify, or delete eviction policy properties and custom properties.
Determine the changes to make to your eviction policy configuration or its configuration objects.
Start wsadmin.sh.
To start wsadmin using the Jython language, run...
WP_PROFILE/bin/wsadmin -lang jython
Use a properties file, you can create, modify, or delete an eviction policy instance. We can also create, modify, or delete eviction policy custom properties.
Run administrative commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties file for an eviction policy, validate the properties, and apply them to the configuration.
Actions for eviction policy properties files. We can create, modify, and delete eviction policy properties.
Action Procedure create Set required properties and then run applyConfigProperties. modify Edit properties and then run applyConfigProperties to modify the value of a custom property. delete Run deleteConfigProperties to delete a property. If the deleted property has a default value, the property is set to the default value. To delete the entire eviction policy, uncomment #DELETE=true and then run deleteConfigProperties.
create Property Not applicable delete Property Not applicable Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:
AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')
Procedure
- Create or edit an eviction policy properties file.
- Set eviction policy properties as needed.
Open an editor on a MemoryCacheEvictionPolicy or DiskCacheEvictionPolicy properties file. Modify the Environment Variables section to match the system and set any property value that needs to be changed.
To specify a custom property, edit the AttributeInfo value and properties values. An example eviction policy properties file follows:
# # MemoryCacheEvictionPolicy # ResourceType=MemoryCacheEvictionPolicy ImplementingResourceType=ServletCacheInstance ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:CacheProvider=myCacheProvider:ServletCacheInstance=jndiName#myServletCacheJndiName:MemoryCacheEvictionPolicy= AttributeInfo=memoryCacheEvictionPolicy #DELETE=true # # #Properties # lowThreshold=80 #integer,default(80) highThreshold=95 #integer,default(95) # # DiskCacheEvictionPolicy # ResourceType=DiskCacheEvictionPolicy ImplementingResourceType=ServletCacheInstance ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:CacheProvider=myCacheProvider:ServletCacheInstance=jndiName#myServletCacheJndiName:DiskCacheEvictionPolicy= AttributeInfo=diskCacheEvictionPolicy #DELETE=true # # #Properties # algorithm=NONE #ENUM(RANDOM|SIZE|NONE),default(NONE) lowThreshold=90 #integer,default(90) highThreshold=95 #integer,default(95) # EnvironmentVariablesSection # # #Environment Variables cellName=myCell04- Run applyConfigProperties to create or change an eviction policy configuration.
Run applyConfigProperties 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 eviction policy or an existing custom property, you can delete the entire eviction policy object or the custom property.
- To delete the entire object, specify DELETE=true in the header section of the properties file and 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 configure and manage an eviction policy object and its properties.
What to do next
