Configure new mail providers using wsadmin.sh
We can use scripting and wsadmin.sh to configure new mail providers. See the topic Starting the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.
Configure a new mail provider:
Procedure
- Identify the parent ID:
### Jacl
set node [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/]### Jython
node = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/') print node
Example output:
mynode(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|node.xml#Node_1)
- Get required attributes:
### Jacl
$AdminConfig required MailProvider### Jython
print AdminConfig.required('MailProvider')
Example output:
Attribute Type name String
- Set up required attributes:
### Jacl
set name [list name MP1] set mpAttrs [list $name]### Jython
name = ['name', 'MP1'] mpAttrs = [name]
- Create the mail provider:
### Jacl
set newmp [$AdminConfig create MailProvider $node $mpAttrs]### Jython
newmp = AdminConfig.create('MailProvider', node, mpAttrs) print newmp
Example output:
MP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#MailProvider_1)
- Save the configuration changes. See the topic Saving configuration changes with wsadmin.sh for more information.
- Synchronize the node. See the topic Synchronizing nodes with the wsadmin tool for more information.
