Configure new WebSphere queue connection factories using scripting

Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Starting the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

Perform the following steps to configure a new WebSphere queue connection factory:

1. Identify the parent ID:

   • Using Jacl:

     set newjmsp [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/JMSProvider:JMSP1/]

   • Using Jython:

     newjmsp = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:myNode/JMSProvider:JMSP1/') 
     print newjmsp

   Example output:

   JMSP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#JMSProvider_1)

2. Get required attributes:

   • Using Jacl:

     $AdminConfig required WASQueueConnectionFactory

   • Using Jython:

     print AdminConfig.required('WASQueueConnectionFactory')

   Example output:

   Attribute       Type name       String jndiName    String

3. Set up required attributes:

   • Using Jacl:

     set name [list name WASQCF]
     set jndi [list jndiName jms/WASQCF]
     set mqcfAttrs [list $name $jndi]

     Example output:

     {name WASQCF} {jndiName jms/WASQCF}

   • Using Jython:

     name = ['name', 'WASQCF']
     jndi = ['jndiName', 'jms/WASQCF']
     mqcfAttrs = [name, jndi]
     print mqcfAttrs

     Example output:

     [[name, WASQCF], [jndiName, jms/WASQCF]]

4. Create was queue connection factories:

   • Using Jacl:

     $AdminConfig create WASQueueConnectionFactory $newjmsp $mqcfAttrs

   • Using Jython:

     print AdminConfig.create('WASQueueConnectionFactory', newjmsp, mqcfAttrs)

   Example output:

   WASQCF(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#WASQueueConnectionFactory_1)

5. Save the configuration changes. See the Saving configuration changes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.

6. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node. See the Synchronizing nodes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.
