Work with CMP connection factory mapping module properties files

We can use properties files to create, modify, or delete mapping module properties of container managed persistence (CMP) connection factories.

Determine the changes to make to the CMP connection factory mapping module configuration.

Start the wsadmin scripting tool. To start wsadmin using the Jython language, run the wsadmin -lang Jython command from the bin directory of the server profile.

Using a properties file, we can create, modify, or delete a CMP connection factory mapping module object.

Run administrative commands using wsadmin to apply a properties file for a mapping module to the configuration, validate the properties, or delete them.

factory mapping module properties files. We can create,

Action	Procedure
create	Set required properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
modify	Edit required properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
delete	To delete the entire CMPConnectorFactory MappingModule 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:

AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')

• Create a properties file for a CMPConnectorFactory MappingModule instance.

  1. Set CMPConnectorFactory MappingModule properties as needed.

     Open an editor on a CMPConnectorFactory MappingModule properties file. Modify the Environment Variables section to match your system and set any property value that needs to be changed. To specify a custom property, edit the AttributeInfo value and properties values. An example CMPConnectorFactory MappingModule properties file follows:

     #
     # Header  #
     ResourceType=MappingModule
     ImplementingResourceType=J2CResourceAdapter
     ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:Node=!{nodeName}:Server=!{serverName}:J2CResourceAdapter=myJ2CResourceAdapter:
     CMPConnectorFactory=jndiName#myCFJNDI:MappingModule=
     AttributeInfo=mapping
     #DELETE=true
     #
     #Properties
     #
     authDataAlias=myADA
     mappingConfigAlias=myMCA
      #
      EnvironmentVariablesSection
     #Environment Variables
     cellName=myCell
     nodeName=myNode
     serverName=myServer

  2. Run the applyConfigProperties command to create or change a mapping module 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 '])

• Modify an existing properties file.

  1. Obtain a properties file for the mapping module to change.

     We can extract a properties file for a CMPConnectorFactory MappingModule object using the extractConfigProperties command.

  2. Open the properties file in an editor and change the properties as needed.

     Ensure that the environment variables in the properties file match the system.

  3. Run the applyConfigProperties command.

• If we no longer need the mapping module, we can delete the entire mapping module 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]')

Results

We can use the properties file to configure and manage the mapping module object and its properties.

What to do next

Save the changes to the configuration.
