Disable the trace service using scripting

We can disable the services of a configured server with scripting and the wsadmin tool.

Perform the following steps to disable the trace service of a configured server. We can modify this example to disable a different service.

Tasks

1. Start the wsadmin scripting tool.
2. Identify the server and assign it to the server variable. For example:
   • Jacl:

     set server [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/Server:server1/]
     

   • Jython:

     server = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/Server:server1/')
     print server
     

   Example output:

   server1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#Server_1)
   

3. List all the services belonging to the server and assign them to the services variable. The following example returns a list of services:
   • Jacl:

     set services [$AdminConfig list Service $server]
     

   • Jython:

     services = AdminConfig.list('Service', server)
     print services
     

   Example output:

   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#AdminService_1)
   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#DynamicCache_1)
   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#MessageListenerService_1)
   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#ObjectRequestBroker_1)
   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#PMIService_1)
   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#RASLoggingService_1)
   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#SessionManager_1)
   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#TraceService_1)
   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#TransactionService_1)
   

4. Identify the trace service and assign it to the traceService variable.

   Since trace service is the seventh element in the list, retrieve this element using index 6.

   • Jacl:

     set traceService [$AdminConfig list TraceService $server]
     

   • Jython:

     traceService = AdminConfig.list('TraceService', server)
     print traceService
     

   Example output:

   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#TraceService_1)
   

5. Disable the trace service by modifying the enable attribute. For example:
   • Jacl:

     $AdminConfig modify $traceService {{enable false}}
     

   • Jython:

     AdminConfig.modify(traceService, [['enable', 'false']])
     

6. Save the configuration changes.

   AdminConfig.save()
   

7. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node.

   Use the syncActiveNode or syncNode scripts in the AdminNodeManagement script library to propagate the configuration changes to node or nodes.

   • Use the syncActiveNodes script to propagate the changes to each node in the cell:

     AdminNodeManagement.syncActiveNodes()
     

   • Use the syncNode script to propagate the changes to a specific node:

     AdminNodeManagement.syncNode("myNode")
