Performing operations on running objects using wsadmin.sh

We can use scripting to invoke operations on running objects.

Before starting this task, wsadmin must be running. See the topic about starting the wsadmin scripting client. We can run wsadmin commands that obtain the object names of running objects and perform operations:

  1. Obtain the object name of the running object. For example:

    • Jacl:

        $AdminControl completeObjectName name

    • Jython:

        AdminControl.completeObjectName(name)

    AdminControl completeObjectName command description. Run the completeObjectName command with an object name.

    Element Description
    $ is a Jacl operator for substituting a variable name with its value
    AdminControl is an object that enables the manipulation of MBeans running in a product process
    completeObjectName is an AdminControl command
    name is a fragment of the object name. It is used to find the matching object name. For example: type=Server,name=serv1,*. It can be any valid combination of domain and key properties. For example, type, name, cell, node, process, etc.

  2. Set the s1 variable to the running object, for example:

    • Jacl:

        set s1 [$AdminControl completeObjectName type=Server,name=server1,*]

    • Jython:

        s1 = AdminControl.completeObjectName('type=Server,name=server1,*')

  3. Invoke the operation. For example:

    • Jacl:

        $AdminControl invoke $s1 stop

    • Jython:

        AdminControl.invoke(s1, 'stop')


Example

The following example is for operations that require parameters:
