Configure new mail sessions using wsadmin.sh

Use scripting and wsadmin.sh to configure new mail sessions.

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

Perform the following steps to configure a new mail session.

Tasks

1. Identify the parent ID:
   • Jacl:

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

   • Jython:

     newmp = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/MailProvider:MP1/')
     print newmp
     

   Example output:

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

2. Get required attributes:
   • Jacl:

     $AdminConfig required MailSession
     

   • Jython:

     print AdminConfig.required('MailSession')
     

   Example output:

   Attribute       Type
   name				   String
   jndiName       String
   

3. Set up required attributes:
   • Jacl:

     set name [list name MS1]
     set jndi [list jndiName mail/MS1]
     set msAttrs [list $name $jndi]
     

     Example output:

     {name MS1} {jndiName mail/MS1}
     

   • Jython:

     name = ['name', 'MS1']
     jndi = ['jndiName', 'mail/MS1']
     msAttrs = [name, jndi]
     print msAttrs
     

     Example output:

     [[name, MS1], [jndiName, mail/MS1]]
     

4. Create the mail session:
   • Jacl:

     $AdminConfig create MailSession $newmp $msAttrs
     

   • Jython:

     print AdminConfig.create('MailSession', newmp, msAttrs)
     

   Example output:

   MS1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#MailSession_1)
   

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