Commands for the AdminConfig object

 

Commands for the AdminConfig object

Use the AdminConfig object to invoke configuration commands and to create or change elements of the WebSphere Application Server configuration, for example, creating a data source.

You can start the scripting client without a running server, if you only want to use local operations. To run in local mode, use the -conntype NONE option to start the scripting client. You receive a message that you are running in the local mode. If a server is currently running, running the AdminConfig tool in local mode is not recommended. This is because any configuration changes made in local mode will not be reflected in the running server configuration and vice versa. If you save a conflicting configuration, you could corrupt the configuration. In a deployment manager environment, configuration updates are available only if a scripting client is connected to a deployment manager. When connected to a node agent or a managed application server, you will not be able to update the configuration because the configuration for these server processes are copies of the master configuration which resides in the deployment manager. The copies are created on a node machine when a configuration synchronization occurs between the deployment manager and the node agent. Make configuration changes to the server processes by connecting a scripting client to a deployment manager. For this reason, to change a configuration, do not run a scripting client in local mode on a node machine. It is not a supported configuration.

The following commands are available for the AdminConfig object:

Command name: Parameters and return values: Examples:
attributes Returns a list of the top level attributes for a given type.

  • Parameters: object type

    The name of the object type that you input here is the one based on the XML configuration files and does not have to be the same name that the administrative console displays.

  • Returns: A list of attributes.

Example usage: Using Jacl:

$AdminConfig attributes ApplicationServer
Using Jython:
print AdminConfig.attributes('ApplicationServer')

WASX7053I: The AdminConfig object communicates with the configuration service in a WebSphere Application Server 
to manipulate configuration data for an Application Server installation.  The AdminConfig 
object has commands to list, create,
remove, display, and modify configuration data, as well as commands to display information about configuration data types.

Most of the commands supported by the AdminConfig object operate in two modes:
the default mode is one in which the AdminConfig object communicates with the Application Server to accomplish its tasks.  A local mode is also possible, in which no server communication takes place.  The local mode of operation is invoked by bringing up the scripting client without a server connected using the command line "-conntype NONE" option or setting the "com.ibm.ws.scripting.connectionType=NONE" property in the wsadmin.properties file.

The following commands are supported by the AdminConfig object; more detailed information about each of these commands is available by using the help command of the AdminConfig object and by supplying the name of the command as an argument.

installResourceAdapter Installs a Java 2 Connector (J2C) resource adapter with the given Resource Adapter Archive (RAR) file name and an option string in the node.The RAR file name is the fully qualified file name that resides in the node that you specify. The valid options include the following options:

  • rar.name

  • rar.desc

  • rar.archivePath

  • rar.classpath

  • rar.nativePath

  • rar.threadPoolAlias

  • rar.propertiesSet

The rar.name option is the name for the J2C resource adapter. If you do not specify this option, the display name in the RAR deployment descriptor is used. If that name is not specified, the RAR file name is used. The rar.desc option is a description of the J2CResourceAdapter. The rar.archivePath is the name of the path where you extract the file. If you do not specify this option, the archive is extracted to the $\{CONNECTOR_INSTALL_ROOT\} directory. The rar.classpath option is the additional class path. rar.propertiesSet is constructed with the following:

name String value String type String *desc String *required true/false 
* means the item is optional
Each attribute of the property are specified in a set of {}. A property is specified in a set of {}. You can specify multiple properties in {}.

When you edit the installed application with the embedded RAR, only existing J2C connection factory, J2C activation specs, and J2C administrative objects will be edited. No new J2C objects will be created.

uninstallResourceAdapter Uninstalls a Java 2 Connector (J2C) resource adapter with the given J2C resource adapter configuration ID and an option list.

One option is valid for this command: * force

This option forces the uninstallation of the resource adapter without checking whether the resource adapter is being used by an application. The application that is using it will not be uninstalled. If you do not specify the force option and the specified resource adapter is still in use, the resource adapter is not uninstalled.

When you remove a J2CResourceAdapter object from the configuration repository, the installed directory will be removed at the time of synchronization. A stop request will be sent to the J2CResourceAdapter MBean that was removed.

  • Parameters: J2C resource adapter configuration ID, list of options

  • Returns: The configuration ID of J2CResourceAdapter object that is removed.

Example usage: Using Jacl:

set j2cra [$AdminConfig getid /J2CResourceAdapter:MyJ2CRA/]
$AdminConfig uninstallResourceAdapter $j2cra {-force}
$AdminConfig save 
Using Jython:
j2cra = AdminConfig.getid('/J2CResourceAdapter:MyJ2CRA/')
print AdminConfig.uninstallResourceAdapter(j2cra, '[-force]')
AdminConfig.save()
Example output:
WASX7397I: The following J2CResourceAdapter objects are removed: 
MyJ2CRA(cells/juniarti/nodes/juniarti|resources.xml#J2CResourceAdapter_1069433028609)
validate Invokes validation.

This command requests configuration validation results based on the files in your workspace, the value of the cross-document validation enabled flag, and the validation level setting. Optionally, you can specify a configuration ID to set the scope. If you specify a configuration ID, the scope of this request is the object named by the config id parameter.

  • Parameters: config id (optional)

  • Returns: A string that contains results of the validation.

Example usage: Using Jacl:

$AdminConfig validate
Using Jython:
print AdminConfig.validate()
Example output:
WASX7193I: Validation results are logged in c:\WebSphere5\
AppServer\logs\wsadmin.valout: Total number of messages: 16
