Configuration task properties
WebSphere Portal configuration tasks use properties specified in...
profile_root/ConfigEngine/properties/wkplc.properties
Helper files are provided under...
ConfigEngine/config/helpers
You can also use parentProperties and SaveParentProperties properties....
parentProperties Location of a parent properties file used when running ConfigEngine.sh. Supersedes values for the same property in wkplc.properties.
SaveParentProperties If true, property values in the parent properties file will be copied to wkplc.properties upon successful completion of the configuration task. For example, on the WebSphere Portal single server or on all nodes of the portal cluster, run...
cd profile_root/ConfigEngine
ConfigEngine.sh -DparentProperties=/helper_file_directory/helper.properties -DSaveParentProperties=true -DWasPassword=passwordWhen running a ConfigEngine task, either specify the PortalAdminPwd and WasPassword parameters in wkplc.properties or on the command line.
ConfigEngine.bat -DparentProperties=/helper_file_directory/helper.properties -DSaveParentProperties=true -DPortalAdminPwd=portal_password -WasPassword=was_password
You will receive an exception if you save cluster related properties before running the clustering tasks when you run...
-DparentProperties=/helper_file_directory/helper.properties -DSaveParentProperties=true
If the parentProperties file contains the WasSoapPort, WasRemoteHostName, WasUserid, WasPassword parameters for the Deployment Manager, ConfigEngine will attempt to connect to the Deployment Manager to synchronize the registry. This connection will fail and display an exception, which can be ignored, and the properties will be written to wkplc.properties.
