Specify configuration objects using the wsadmin scripting tool
Specify configuration objects with scripting and the wsadmin tool.
To manage an existing configuration object, identify the configuration object and obtain a configuration ID of the object to use for subsequent manipulation.
Procedure
### Jacl ### Obtain the ID of the configuration object with the getid command set var [$AdminConfig getid /type:name/]
### Jython ### Obtain the ID of the configuration object with the getid command var = AdminConfig.getid('/type:name/')We can specify multiple /type:name/ value pairs in the string, for example, /type:name/type:name/type:name/. If you specify the type in the containment path without the name, include the colon, for example, /type:/. The containment path must be a path that contains the correct hierarchical order. For example, if you specify /Server:server1/Node:node/ as the containment path, you do not receive a valid configuration ID because Node is a parent of Server and comes before Server in the hierarchy.
This command returns all the configuration IDs that match the representation of the containment and assigns them to a variable.
To look for all the server configuration IDs that reside in the mynode node...
### Jacl set nodeServers [$AdminConfig getid /Node:mynode/Server:/] ### Jython nodeServers = AdminConfig.getid('/Node:mynode/Server:/')
To look for the server1 configuration ID that resides in mynode:
### Jacl set server1 [$AdminConfig getid /Node:mynode/Server:server1/] ### Jython server1 = AdminConfig.getid('/Node:mynode/Server:server1/')To look for all the server configuration IDs:
### Jacl set servers [$AdminConfig getid /Server:/] ### Jython servers = AdminConfig.getid('/Server:/')
Obtain the ID of the configuration object with the list command, for example: ### Jacl
set var [$AdminConfig list type]...or...
set var [$AdminConfig list type scopeId]### Jython
var = AdminConfig.list('type')orvar = AdminConfig.list('type', 'scopeId')
This command returns a list of configuration object IDs of a given type. If you specify the scopeId value, the list of objects is returned within the specified scope. The returned list is assigned to a variable.
To look for all the server configuration IDs
### Jacl set servers [$AdminConfig list Server] ### Jython servers = AdminConfig.list('Server')
To look for all the server configuration IDs in the mynode node:
### Jacl set scopeid [$AdminConfig getid /Node:mynode/] set nodeServers [$AdminConfig list Server $scopeid] ### Jython scopeid = AdminConfig.getid('/Node:mynode/') nodeServers = AdminConfig.list('Server', scopeid)
If more than one configuration ID is returned from the getid or the list command, the IDs are returned in a list syntax. One way to retrieve a single element from the list is to use the lindex command. The following example retrieves the first configuration ID from the server object list:
### Jacl set allServers [$AdminConfig getid /Server:/] set aServer [lindex $allServers 0] ### Jython allServers = AdminConfig.getid('/Server:/') # get line separator import java lineSeparator = java.lang.System.getProperty('line.separator') arrayAllServers = allServers.split(lineSeparator) aServer = arrayAllServers[0]Use wsadmin scripting with Jacl
Start the wsadmin scripting client using wsadmin.sh
