Configure new topics by using scripting
We can configure new topics by using wsadmin and scripting.
Complete the following steps to configure a new WebSphere queue:
In the following examples, code blocks beginning with wsadmin> show code that is entered by the user. Lines that do not begin with wsadmin> show code that has been returned by the console.
Procedure
- Identify the parent ID and assign in to a variable. In this example the variable is named v5jmsp.
### Jacl
wsadmin>set v5jmsp [$AdminConfig getid "/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/JMSProvider:WebSphere JMS Provider/"]### Jython
wsadmin>v5jmsp = AdminConfig.getid("/Cell:mycell/Node:myNode/JMSProvider:WebSphere JMS Provider/") wsadmin>print v5jmsp
Example output:
"WebSphere JMS Provider(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#builtin_jmsprovider)"
- Get required attributes:
### Jacl
wsadmin>$AdminConfig required WASQueue### Jython
wsadmin>print AdminConfig.required('WASQueue')
Example output:
Attribute Type name String jndiName String
- Set up required attributes:
### Jacl
wsadmin>set name [list name WASQ1] wsadmin>set jndi [list jndiName jms/WASQ1] wsadmin>set wqAttrs [list $name $jndi]Example output:
{name WASQ1} {jndiName jms/WASQ1}### Jython
wsadmin>name = ['name', 'WASQ1'] wsadmin>jndi = ['jndiName', 'jms/WASQ1'] wsadmin>wqAttrs = [name, jndi] wsadmin>print wqAttrsExample output:
[[name, WASQ1], [jndiName, jms/WASQ1]]
- Create the queue:
### Jacl
wsadmin>$AdminConfig create WASQueue $v5jmsp $wqAttrs### Jython
wsadmin>print AdminConfig.create('WASQueue', v5jmsp, wqAttrs)
Example output:
WASQ1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#WASQueue_1)
- Save the configuration changes.
- In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node.
Use the wsadmin scripting AdminConfig object for scripted administration
Start the wsadmin scripting client using wsadmin.sh
