Work with transaction service properties files

We can use properties files to change transaction service properties under a server.

Determine the changes to make to your transaction service 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 transaction service configuration properties.

Run administrative commands using wsadmin to change a properties file for a transaction service, validate the properties, and apply them to your configuration.

Actions for transaction service properties files. We can create, modify, and delete transaction service properties.

Action	Procedure
create	Not available
modify	Edit properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
delete	Not available
create Property	Set properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
delete Property	Specify the properties to delete in the properties file and then run the deleteConfigProperties command.

Optionally, we can use interactive mode with the commands:

AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')

• Create transaction service properties.

  1. Specify TransationService properties in a properties file.

     Open an editor and specify transaction service properties under a server in a properties file. We can copy the following example properties into an editor and modify the properties as needed for the situation. The example shows a property under TransationService with name myName and value myVal.

     #
     #Environment Variables
     cellName=WASCell06
     serverName=myServer
     nodeName=WASNode04

  2. Run the applyConfigProperties command to create a TransationService 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 existing transaction service properties.
  1. Obtain a properties file for the transaction service to change.

     We can extract a properties file for a TransationService using the extractConfigProperties command.

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

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

  3. Run the applyConfigProperties command.

• Delete the transaction service properties.

  To delete one or more properties, specify only those properties to delete in the properties file and run deleteConfigProperties.

  AdminTask.deleteConfigProperties('[-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt]')

Results

We can use the properties file to manage the transaction service object.

Save the changes to your configuration.
