Work with key store file properties files
We can use properties files to modify or delete key store file properties of web servers.
Determine the changes to make to your key store file properties 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 modify or delete a key store file object.
Run administrative commands using wsadmin to change a properties file for a key store file, validate the properties, and apply them to the configuration.
Actions for key store file properties files. We can modify or delete key store file objects.
Action Procedure create Not applicable modify Edit properties and then run applyConfigProperties to modify the value of a custom property. delete Specify the properties to delete in the properties file and then run deleteConfigProperties to delete a property. If the deleted property has a default value, the property is set to the default value. create Property Not applicable delete Property Not applicable Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:
AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')
Procedure
- Modify existing key store file properties.
- Obtain a properties file for the key store file that to change.
We can extract a KeyStoreFile properties file using the extractConfigProperties command.
- Open the properties file in an editor and change the custom properties as needed.
Open an editor and specify key store file custom properties in a properties file. We can copy the following example properties into an editor and modify the properties as needed for your situation.
To specify a custom property, edit the AttributeInfo value and properties values. Ensure that the environment variables in the properties file match the system.
# # Header # ResourceType=KeyStoreFile ImplementingResourceType=WebServer ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:Node=!{nodeName}:Server=!{serverName}:WebServer=:KeyStoreFile=name#keyFile,directory#keys AttributeInfo=keyStoreFiles # # #Properties # directory=keys name=keyFile # EnvironmentVariablesSection # # #Environment Variables cellName=myNode04Cell nodeName=myNode04 serverName=IHS- Run applyConfigProperties to change a key store file properties 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'])
- Delete key store file properties.
To delete one or more properties, specify only those properties to delete in the properties file and run deleteConfigProperties.
AdminTask.deleteConfigProperties('[-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt]')
Results
We can use the properties file to configure and manage the key store file object and its properties.
What to do next
Save the changes to the configuration.
