Work with data replication domain properties files

We can use properties files to create, modify, or delete data replication domain properties and custom properties.

Determine the changes to make to the data replication domain configuration or its configuration objects.

From the server profile bin directory, run wsadmin -lang jython

Using a properties file create, modify, or delete a data replication domain object. We can also create, modify, or delete data replication domain custom properties.

Run administrative commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties file for a data replication domain, validate the properties, and apply them to your configuration.

for data replication domain properties files. We can
Action Procedure
create Set required properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
modify Edit properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command to modify the value of a custom property.
delete Run the deleteConfigProperties command to delete a property. If the deleted property has a default value, the property is set to the default value. To delete the entire DataReplicationDomain object, uncomment #DELETE=true and then run the deleteConfigProperties command.
create Property Not applicable
delete Property Not applicable

Optionally, we can use interactive mode with the commands:

  1. Create or edit a data replication domain properties file.

    1. Set DataReplicationDomain properties as needed.

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

      #
      # Header
      #
      ResourceType=DataReplicationDomain
      ImplementingResourceType=DataReplicationDomain
      ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:DataReplicationDomain=myDRDomain
      #DELETE=true
      #
       #
      #Properties
      #
      name=myDRDomain # required
       #
      EnvironmentVariablesSection
      #
      #
      #Environment Variables
      cellName=IBM-49F7FB781FECell04

    2. Run the applyConfigProperties command to create or change a data replication domain configuration.

      Running the applyConfigProperties command 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'])

  2. If we no longer need the data replication domain or an existing custom property, we can delete the entire data replication domain object or the custom property.

    • To delete the entire object, specify DELETE=true in the header section of the properties file and run the deleteConfigProperties command; 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 the deleteConfigProperties command.


Results

We can use the properties file to configure and manage the data replication domain object and its properties.


What to do next

Save the changes to the configuration.
