propagatePluginCfg.py script

To automatically propagate the generated plugin-cfg.xml file, run...

<WAS_HOME>/bin/propagatePluginCfg.py

To use propagatePluginCfg.py, either...

• Configure the Plugin config change script using the administrative console
• Use the custom property ODCPluginCfgUpdateScript_<definitionID>

The propagatePluginCfg.py script file supports two operations:

• copyToRepository <localPath> <remoteRepositoryPath> [<remoteRepositoryPath> ...]

  Copies a locally generated plugin-cfg.xml file into one or more locations in the deployment manager configuration repository, and performs a node synchronization to push plugin-cfg.xml to all remote nodes.

  Usage example...

  • <WAS_HOME>/bin/wsadmin.sh -f <WAS_HOME>/bin/propagatePluginCfg.py -lang jython copyToRepository /tmp/plugin-cfg.xml cells/myCell/nodes/myIHSNode/servers/myIHSServer/plugin-cfg.xml

  • <WAS_HOME>/bin/wsadmin.sh -f <WAS_HOME>/bin/propagatePluginCfg.py -lang jython copyToRepository /tmp/plugin-cfg.xml cells/myCell/nodes/myIHSNode1/servers/myIHSServer1/plugin-cfg.xml cells/myCell1/nodes/myIHSNode2/servers/myIHSServer2/plugin-cfg.xml

• uploadToIHSAdminServer url uid pwd localPath remotePath

  Uploads a local plugin-cfg.xml file to a remote IBM HTTP Server (IHS) administration server.

  where:

  localPath	absolute path to the local file that is to be copied or uploaded.
  remoteRepsitoryPath	relative path in the repository where the local file can be copied to.
  remotePath	absolute path of the file on the IHS administration server.
  url	IHS administration server URL of the form <protocol>://<host>:<port>
  uid	user name identifier to use in authenticating to the IHS administration server.
  pwd	password to use in authenticating to the IHS administration server.

  Usage example...

  WAS_HOME/bin/wsadmin.sh -f WAS_HOME/bin/propagatePluginCfg.py -lang jython https://myIHSHost:8192 ihsusr ihspasswd /tmp/plugin-cfg.xml /opt/IHS/plugins/config/webserver1/plugin-cfg.xml

We can also automatically propagate the generated plugin-cfg.xml file to web servers using the autoPropagate keyword option in the administrative console. Read about propagating plugin-cfg.xml to web servers using the autoPropagate keyword option for more information.
