Options for the AdminApp object install, installInteractive, edit, editInteractive, update, and updateInteractive commands

This article lists the available options for the install , installInteractive, edit, editInteractive, update, and updateInteractive commands of the AdminApp object. The options listed in this article apply to all of these commands except where noted.

See Commands for the AdminApp object for more detailed information on how to use the commands. See Usage table for the options of the AdminApp object install, installInteractive, update, updateInteractive, edit, and editInteractive commands for a list of applicable commands for each option.

The following options are available for the install , installInteractive, edit, editInteractive, update, and updateInteractive commands:

Option name: Examples:
ActSpecJNDI Binds J2C activation specs to destination JNDI names. You can bind J2C activation specs in your application or module to a destination JNDI name. This option is optional. Each element of the ActSpecJNDI option consists of the following fields: RARModule, uri, j2cid, j2c.jndiName. j2c.jndiName field, can be assigned a value. The current contents of the option after running default bindings include:

  • RARModule: <rar module name>

  • uri: <rar name>,META-INF/ra.xml

  • Object identifier: <messageListenerType>

  • JNDI name: null

You can only use this option if the activation spec has the Destination property defined in the ra.xml file and the introspected type of the Destination property is the following: javax.jms.Destination

Use the taskInfo command of the AdminApp object to obtain information about the data that is needed for your application. You need to provide data for rows or entries that are either missing information, or require an update.

javax.jms.Queue jms/Resource2]]]')
MapResRefToEJB Maps resource references to resources. You must map each resource reference that is defined in your application to a resource. Use this option to provide missing data or to update a task.

Each element of the MapResRefToEJB option consists of the following fields: module, EJB, uri, referenceBinding, resRef.type, JNDI, login.config.name, and auth.props. Of these fields, the following can be assigned values: JNDI, login.config.name, auth.props. The JNDI field is required. The current contents of the option after running default bindings include:

  • Module: deplmtest.jar

  • EJB: MailEJBObject

  • URI: deplmtest.jar,META-INF/ejb-jar.xml

  • Reference binding: jms/MyConnectionFactory

  • Resource type: javax.jms.ConnectionFactory

  • JNDI name: [jms/MyConnectionFactory]:

  • Login Configuration Name: [null]:

  • Properties: []:

If the login.config.name is set to DefaultPrincipalMapping, a property is created with the name com.ibm.mapping.authDataAlias . The value of the property is set by the auth.props. If the login.config name is not set to DefaultPrincipalMapping, the auth.props can specify multiple properties. The string format is websphere:name= <name1>,value=<value1>,description=<desc1>. Specify multiple properties using the plus sign (+) .

Use the taskInfo command of the AdminApp object to obtain information about the data that is needed for your application. You need to provide data for rows or entries that are either missing information, or require an update.

Using Jacl:
$AdminApp install c:/app1.ear {-MapResRefToEJB {{deplmtest.jar 
MailEJBObject deplmtest.jar,META-INF/ejb-jar.xml mail/MailSession9 
javax.mail.Session jndi1 login1 authProps1} {"JavaMail Sample WebApp" "" 
mtcomps.war,WEB-INF/web.xml mail/MailSession9 javax.mail.
Session jndi2 login2 authProps2}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.install('c:/app1.ear', ['-MapResRefToEJB', [['deplmtest.jar', 
'MailEJBObject', 'deplmtest.jar,META-INF/ejb-jar.xml mail/MailSession9', 
'javax.mail.Session', 'jndi1', 'login1', 'authProps1'], 
["JavaMail Sample WebApp", "", 
'mtcomps.war,WEB-INF/web.xml', 'mail/MailSession9', 'javax.mail.
Session', 'jndi2', 'login2', 'authProps2']]])
MapRolesToUsers Maps users to roles. You must map each role that is defined in the application or module to a user or group from the domain user registry. You can specify multiple users or groups for a single role by separating them with a pipe (|). Use this option to provide missing data or to update a task.

Use the taskInfo command of the AdminApp object to obtain information about the data that is needed for your application. You need to provide data for rows or entries that are either missing information, or require an update.

Using Jacl:
$AdminApp install c:/myapp.ear {-MapRolesToUsers {{"All Role" No Yes "" ""} 
{"Every Role" Yes No "" ""} {DenyAllRole No No user1 group1}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.install('c:/myapp.ear', '[-MapRolesToUsers [["All Role" No Yes "" ""] 
["Every Role" Yes No "" ""] [DenyAllRole No No user1 group1]]]')

where {{"All Role" No Yes "" ""} corresponds to the following:

"All Role" Represents the role name
No Indicates to allow access to everyone (yes/no)
Yes Indicates to allow access to all authenticated users (yes/no)
"" Indicates the mapped users
"" Indicates the mapped groups

MapRunAsRolesToUsers Maps RunAs Roles to users. The enterprise beans you that install contain predefined RunAs roles. Enterprise beans that need to run as a particular role for recognition while interacting with another enterprise bean use RunAs roles. Use this option to provide missing data or to update a task.

Use the taskInfo command of the AdminApp object to obtain information about the data that is needed for your application. You need to provide data for rows or entries that are either missing information, or require an update.

Using Jacl:
$AdminApp install c:/myapp.ear {-MapRunAsRolesToUsers 
{{UserRole user1 password1} 
{AdminRole administrator administrator}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.install('c:/myapp.ear', '[-MapRunAsRolesToUsers 
[[UserRole user1 password1] 
[AdminRole administrator administrator]]]')
MapWebModToVH Selects virtual hosts for Web modules. Specify the virtual host where you want to install the Web modules that are contained in your application. You can install Web modules on the same virtual host, or disperse them among several hosts. Use this option to provide missing data or to update a task.

Use the taskInfo command of the AdminApp object to obtain information about the data that is needed for your application. You need to provide data for rows or entries that are either missing information, or require an update.

Using Jacl:
$AdminApp install c:/myapp.ear {-MapWebModToVH {{"Default Application" 
default_app.war,WEB-INF/web.xml default_host} {"Examples Application" 
examples.war,WEB-INF/web.xml default_host}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.install('c:/myapp.ear', '[-MapWebModToVH [["Default Application" 
default_app.war,WEB-INF/web.xml default_host] ["Examples Application" 
examples.war,WEB-INF/web.xml default_host]]]')

noprocessEmbeddedConfig Use this option to ignore the embedded configuration data that is include in the application. This option does not required a value.

If the application Enterprise Archive (EAR) file does not contain embedded configuration data, the noprocessEmbeddedConfig option is the default setting. Otherwise, the default setting is the processEmbeddedConfig option.

 
nouseMetaDataFromBinary That the metadata that is used at run time, for example, deployment descriptors, bindings, extensions, and so on, come from the configuration repository. This option is the default setting and it does not require a value. Use this option to indicate that the metadata that is used at run time comes from the enterprise archive file (EAR) file.  
nousedefaultbindings Specifies not to use default bindings for installation. This option is the default setting and it does not require a value.  
operation The operation that you want to perform. This option only applies to the update command. The valid values include:

  • add - Adds new content.

  • addupdate - Adds or updates content based on the existence of content in the application.

  • delete - Deletes content.

  • update - Updates existing content.

The operation option is required if the content type is file or modulefile. If the value of the content type is app, the value of the operation option must be update.

The following examples show how to use the options for the update command to update a single file in a deployed application: Using Jacl:

$AdminApp update app1 file {-operation update -contents 
c:/apps/app1/my.xml -contenturi app1.jar/my.xml}
Using
Jython string:
AdminApp.update('app1', 'file', '[-operation update -contents 
c:/apps/app1/my.xml -contenturi app1.jar/my.xml]')
Using
Jython list:
AdminApp.update('app1', 'file', ['-operation', 'update', 
'-contents', 'c:/apps/app1/my.xml', '-contenturi', app1.jar/my.xml'])

where AdminApp is the scripting object, update is the command, app1 is the name of the application you want to update, file is the content type, operation is an option of the update command, update is the value of the operationoption, contents is an option of the update command, /apps/app1/my.xml is the value of the contents option, contenturi is an option of the update command, app1.jar/my.xml is the value of the contenturi option.

processEmbeddedConfig Use this option to process the embedded configuration data that is included in the application. This option does not required a value.

If the application Enterprise Archive (EAR) file contains embedded configuration data, this option is the default setting. If not, the default setting is the nonprocessEmbeddedConfig option.

 
preCompileJSPs To precompile the JavaServer Pages files. This option does not require a value. The default is nopreCompileJSPs.  
reloadEnabled That the file system of the application will be scanned for updated files so that changes reload dynamically. This option is the default setting and it does not require a value.  
reloadInterval The time period in seconds that the file system of the application will be scanned for updated files. Valid range is greater than zero. The default is three seconds.  
server The server name to install or update an entire application or to update an application in order to add a new module. If you want to update an application, this option only applies if the application contains a new module that does not exist in the installed application.  
update Updates the installed application with a new version of the enterprise archive file (EAR) file. This option does not require a value.

The application that is being updated, which is specified by the appname option, must already be installed in the WebSphere Application Server configuration. The update action merges bindings from the new version with the bindings from the old version, uninstalls the old version, and installs the new version. The binding information from new version of the EAR file is preferred over the corresponding one from the old version. If any element of binding is missing in the new version, the corresponding element from the old version is used.

 
update.ignore.new That during the update action, bindings from the new version of the application are ignored. This option does not require a value. This option applies only if you specify one of the following items:

  • The update option for the install command.

  • The modulefile or app as the content type for the update command.

 
update.ignore.old That during the update action, the bindings from the installed version of the application are ignored. This option does not require a value. This option applies only if you specify one of the following items:

  • The update option for the install command.

  • The modulefile or app as the content type for the update command.

 
useMetaDataFromBinary That the metadata that is used at run time, for example, deployment descriptors, bindings, extensions, and so on, come from the EAR file. This option does not require a value.

The default value is nouseMetaDataFromBinary, which means that the metadata that is used at run time comes from the configuration repository.

 
usedefaultbindings To use default bindings for installation. This option does not require a value.

The default setting is nousedefaultbindings.

 
validateinstall The level of application installation validation. Valid option values include:

  • off - Specifies no application deployment validation. This value is the default.

  • warn - Performs application deployment validation and continues with the application deployment process even when reported warnings or error messages exist.

  • fail - Performs application deployment validation and does not to continue with the application deployment process when reported warnings or error messages exist.

 
verbose Causes additional messages to display during installation. This option does not require a value.  
WebServicesClientBindDeployedWSDL The immutable values for this option identify the client Web service that you are modifying. The scoping fields include: Module, EJB, and Web service. The single mutable value for this task is the deployed WSDL file name. It indicates the Web Services Description Language (WSDL) the client uses.

The Module field identifies the enterprise or Web application within the application. If the module is an enterprise bean , the EJB field identifies a particular enterprise bean within the module. The Web service field identifies the Web service within the enterprise bean or the Web application module. This identifier corresponds to the wsdl:service attribute in the WSDL file, prepended with service/, for example, service/WSLoggerService2.

The deployed WSDL attribute names a WSDL file relative to the client module. An example of a deployed WSDL for a Web application is the following: WEB-INF/wsdl/WSLoggerService.

Using Jacl:
$AdminApp install WebServicesSamples.ear {-WebServicesClientBindDeployedWSDL 
{{AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookW2JE service/WSLoggerService2 
META-INF/wsdl/DeployedWsdl1.wsdl}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.install('WebServicesSamples.ear', '[-WebServicesClientBindDeployedWSDL 
[[AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookW2JE service/WSLoggerService2 
META-INF/wsdl/DeployedWsdl1.wsdl]]]')
WebServicesClientBindPortInfo The immutable values identify the port of a client Web service that you are modifying. The scoping fields include: Module, EJB, Web service and Port. The mutable values for this task include: Sync Timeout, BasicAuth ID, BasicAuth Password, SSL Config, and Overridden Endpoint URI. The basic authentication and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) fields affect transport level security, not Web services security. Using Jacl:
$AdminApp install WebServicesSamples.ear {-WebServicesClientBindPortInfo 
{{AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookW2JE 
service/WSLoggerService2 WSLoggerJMS 3000 newHTTP_ID newHTTP_pwd 
sslAliasConfig http://yunus:9090/WSLoggerEJB/services/WSLoggerJMS}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.install('WebServicesSamples.ear', '[-WebServicesClientBindPortInfo 
[[AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookW2JE 
service/WSLoggerService2 WSLoggerJMS 3000 newHTTP_ID newHTTP_pwd 
sslAliasConfig http://yunus:9090/WSLoggerEJB/services/WSLoggerJMS]]]')
WebServicesClientBindPreferredPort Associates a preferred port (implementation) with a port type (interface) for a client Web service. The immutable values identify a port type of the client Web service that you are modifying. The scoping fields include: Module, EJB, Web service and Port Type. The mutable value for this task is Port.

  • Port Type - QName ("{namespace} localname") of a port type that is defined by a wsdl:portType attribute in the WSDL file that identifies an interface.

  • Port - QName of a port defined by a wsdl:port attribute within a wsdl:service attribute in a WSDL file that identifies an implementation that has preference.

Using Jacl:
$AdminApp install WebServicesSamples.ear {-WebServicesClientBindPreferredPort 
{{AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookW2JE service/WSLoggerService2 
WSLoggerJMS WSLoggerJMSPort}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.install('WebServicesSamples.ear', '[-WebServicesClientBindPreferredPort 
[[AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookW2JE service/WSLoggerService2 
WSLoggerJMS WSLoggerJMSPort]]]')
WebServicesServerBindPort Sets two attributes of a Web service port. The immutable values identify the port of a Web service that you are modifying. The scope fields include: Module, Web service and Port. The mutable values include: WSDL Service Name, and Scope.

The scope determines the life cycle of implementing the Java bean. The valid values include: Request (new instance for each request), Application (one instance for each web-app), and Session (new instance for each HTTP session).

The scope attribute does not apply to Web services that a Java Message Service (JMS) transport. The scope attribute does not apply to enterprise beans.

The
WSDL service name identifies a service when more than one service has the same port name. The WSDL service name is represented as a QName string, for example, {namespace}localname .

Using Jacl:
$AdminApp install WebServicesSamples.ear {-WebServicesServerBindPort 
{{AddressBookW2JE.jar service/WSLoggerService2 WSLoggerJMS {} Session}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.install('WebServicesSamples.ear', '[-WebServicesServerBindPort 
[[AddressBookW2JE.jar service/WSLoggerService2 WSLoggerJMS "" Session]]]')
WebServicesClientCustomProperty Supports the configuration of the name value parameter for the description of the client bind file of a Web service. The immutable values identify the port of the Web service that you are modifying. The scope fields include: Module, Web service, and Port. The mutable values include: name and value.

The format of the name and value values include a string that represents multiple name and value pairs by using the + character as a separator. For example, name string = "n1+n2+n3" value string = "v1+v2+v3" yields name/value pairs: {{"n1" "v1"}, {"n2" "v2"}, {"n3" " v3"}}

Using Jacl:
$AdminApp edit WebServicesSamples {-WebServicesServerCustomProperty 
{{AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookService AddressBook http.proxyHost +http.proxyPort myhost+80}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.edit ( 'WebServicesSamples', '[ -WebServicesServerCustomProperty 
[[AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookService AddressBook 
http.proxyHost+http.proxyPort myhost+80]]]')
WebServicesServerCustomProperty

Supports the configuration of the name value parameter for the description of the server bind file of a Web service. The scoping fields include the following: Module, EJB, and Web service. The mutable values for this task include: name and value.

The format of the these values include a string that represents multiple name and value pairs by using the plus (+) character as a separator. For example, name string = "n1+n2+n3" value string = "v1+v2+v3" yields name/value pairs: {{"n1" "v1"}, {"n2" "v2"}, {"n3" " v3"}}

Using Jacl:
$AdminApp edit WebServicesSamples {-WebServicesServerCustomProperty 
{{AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookService AddressBook 
com.ibm.websphere.webservices.http.responseContentEncoding deflate}}}
Using Jython:
AdminApp.edit ( 'WebServicesSamples', '[ -WebServicesServerCustomProperty 
[[AddressBookW2JE.jar AddressBookService AddressBook 
com.ibm.websphere.webservices.http.responseContentEncoding deflate]]]')
