Configure custom properties for URLs using wsadmin

Use the wsadmin scripting tool to set custom properties for URLs.

Before starting this task, wsadmin.sh must be running. See the topic Starting the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

To configure a new custom property for a URL:

1. Identify the parent ID and assign it to the newurl variable.

   • Jacl:

     set newurl [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/URLProvider:URLP1/URL:URL1/]

   • Jython:

     newurl = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/URLProvider:URLP1/URL:URL1/')
     print newurl

   Example output:

   URL1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#URL_1)

2. Create a J2EE resource property set:

   • Jacl:

     set propSet [$AdminConfig showAttribute $newurl propertySet]

   • Jython:

     propSet = AdminConfig.showAttribute(newurl, 'propertySet') print propSet

   Example output:

   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#J2EEResourcePropertySet_7)

3. Identify the required attributes:

   • Jacl:

     $AdminConfig required J2EEResourceProperty

   • Jython:

     print AdminConfig. required('J2EEResourceProperty')

   Example output:

   Attribute     Type
   name         String

4. Set up the required attributes:

   • Jacl:

     set name [list name RP3]
     set rpAttrs [list $name]

   • Jython:

     name = ['name', 'RP3']
     rpAttrs = [name]

5. Create a J2EE resource property:

   • Jacl:

     $AdminConfig create J2EEResourceProperty $propSet $rpAttrs

   • Jython:

     print AdminConfig.create('J2EEResourceProperty', propSet, rpAttrs)

   Example output:

   RP3(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#J2EEResourceProperty_7)

6. Save the configuration changes. See the topic Saving configuration changes with wsadmin.sh for more information.

7. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node. See the topic Synchronizing nodes with wsadmin.sh for more information.
