Configure new custom properties using wsadmin.sh

Use scripting and the wsadmin tool to configure new custom properties.

See the topic about starting the wsadmin scripting client for more information.

Perform the following steps to configure a new custom property:

Tasks

1. Identify the parent ID.
   • Jacl:

     set newmp [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/MailProvider:MP1/]
     

   • Jython:

     newmp = AdminConfig.create('MailProvider', node, mpAttrs)
     print newmp
     

   Example output:

   MP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#MailProvider_1)
   

2. Get the J2EE resource property set.
   • Jacl:

     set propSet [$AdminConfig showAttribute $newmp propertySet]
     

   • Jython:

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

   Example output:

   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#PropertySet_2)
   

3. Get 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 CP1]
     set cpAttrs [list $name]
     

     Example output:

     {name CP1}
     

   • Jython:

     name = ['name', 'CP1']
     cpAttrs = [name]
     print cpAttrs
     

     Example output:

     [[name, CP1]]
     

5. Create a J2EE resource property.
   • Jacl:

     $AdminConfig create J2EEResourceProperty $propSet $cpAttrs
     

   • Jython:

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

   Example output:

   CP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#J2EEResourceProperty_2)
   

6. Save the configuration changes. See the topic Saving configuration changes with the wsadmin tool for more information.
7. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node. See the topic Synchronize nodes with the wsadmin tool for more information.
