Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Starting the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.
The following example queries for the presence of Application MBean to find out whether the application is running. Using Jacl:
$AdminControl completeObjectName type=Application,name=myApplication,*Using Jython:
print AdminControl.completeObjectName('type=Application,name=myApplication,*')
where:
| $ | is a Jacl operator for substituting a variable name with its value |
| AdminControl | is an object that enables the manipulation of MBeans running in a WebSphere server process |
| completeObjectName | is an AdminControl command |
| type=Application,name=myApplication | is the hierarchical containment path of the configuration object |
| is a Jython command |
Result
If myApplication is running, then there should be an MBean created for it. Otherwise, the command returns nothing. If myApplication is running, the following is the example output:
WebSphere:cell=mycell,name=myApplication,mbeanIdentifier=cells/mycell/applications/myApplication.ear/deployments/myApplication/deployment.xml#ApplicationDeployment_1,type=Application,node=mynode,Server=dmgr,process=dmgr,J2EEName=myApplication
