Work with end point properties file

We can use properties files to change the end points of a server.

Determine the changes to make to the end point configuration.

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

Using a properties file, we can modify end point properties.

Run administrative commands using wsadmin to extract a properties file for an end point, validate the properties, and apply them to your configuration.

for end point properties files. We can modify end point

Action	Procedure
create	Not available
modify	Edit properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
delete	Not available

Optionally, we can use interactive mode with the commands:

AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')

1. Edit end point properties under a server.

   Open an editor on a properties file. Example properties for an EndPoint under a server follow. The example specifies three different host names in the Environment Variables section: myHostName,* and localhost. We can copy the example properties into an editor and modify them as needed for the situation.

   hostName1=*
   hostName=myHostName
   cellName=WASCell06
   serverName=myServer
   nodeName=WASNode04

2. Run the applyConfigProperties command.

   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'])

Results

We can use the properties file to configure and manage the end point properties.

What to do next

Save the changes to the configuration.
