Work with TCP inbound channel properties files

We can use properties files to create, modify, or delete TCP inbound channel properties and custom properties.

Determine the changes to make to your TCP inbound channel configuration or its configuration objects.

Use a properties file, you can create, modify, or delete a TCP inbound channel object. We can also create, modify, or delete TCP inbound channel custom properties.

Run administrative commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties file for a TCP inbound channel, validate the properties, and apply them to the configuration.

Actions for TCP inbound channel properties files. We can create, modify, and delete TCP inbound channel objects.

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 TCPInboundChannel object, uncomment #DELETE=true and then run deleteConfigProperties.
create Property	Not applicable
delete Property	Not applicable

Actions for TCP inbound channel custom properties. We can create, modify, and delete TCP inbound channel 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

• Create or edit a TCP inbound channel properties file.

  1. Set TCPInboundChannel object properties as needed.

     Open an editor on a TCPInboundChannel properties file. Modify the Environment Variables section to match the system and set any property value that needs to be changed. An example TCPInboundChannel properties file follows:

     #
     # Header
     #
     ResourceType=TCPInboundChannel
     ImplementingResourceType=TransportChannelService
     ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:Node=!{nodeName}:Server=!{serverName}:TransportChannelService=:TCPInboundChannel=myTCPIC
     AttributeInfo=transportChannels
     #DELETE=true
     #
     
     #
     #Properties
     #
     maxOpenConnections=20000 #integer,required,default(20000)
     name= myTCPIC #required
     hostNameIncludeList={}
     hostNameExcludeList={}
     endPointName=WC_adminhost
     inactivityTimeout=60 #integer,required,default(60)
     discriminationWeight=0 #integer,default(0)
     addressIncludeList={}
     addressExcludeList={}
     threadPool=WebContainer #ObjectName(ThreadPool)
     
     #
     EnvironmentVariablesSection
     #
     #
     #Environment Variables
     cellName=myCell04
     serverName=server1
     nodeName=myNode05
     

  2. Run applyConfigProperties to change a TCP inbound channel 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'])
     

• Create or edit TCP inbound channel custom properties.

  1. Set TCPInboundChannel custom properties as needed.

     Open an editor on a TCPInboundChannel 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; for example:

     #
     # Header
     #
     ResourceType=TCPInboundChannel
     ImplementingResourceType=TransportChannelService
     ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:Node=!{nodeName}:Server=!{serverName}:TransportChannelService=:TCPInboundChannel=myTCPIC
     AttributeInfo=properties(name,value)
     #
     
     #
     #Properties
     #
     existingProp=newValue
     newProp=newValue
     
     #
     EnvironmentVariablesSection
     #
     #
     #Environment Variables
     cellName=myCell04
     serverName=server1
     nodeName=myNode05
     

  2. Run applyConfigProperties.

• If you no longer need the TCP inbound channel or an existing custom property, you can delete the entire TCP inbound channel 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 the TCP inbound channel object and its properties.

What to do next

Save the changes to the configuration.
Extract properties files using wsadmin.sh
Create server, cluster, application, or authorization group objects using properties files and wsadmin scripting
Delete server, cluster, application, or authorization group objects using properties files
