Running administrative commands
Scripts are used to administer the Profiles feature. These scripts use the AdminConfig object available in IBM WebSphere Application Server wsadmin client to interact with the Profiles server.
You cannot use administrative tools to add or remove a profile from your LDAP system. You must use that directory's native tools to create and delete profiles. These scripts give an administrator (who otherwise would not have access to edit a user's profile data), the ability to edit various fields in a user's profile. For example, one use of the capability is to remove unwanted or inappropriate content.
Unlike with configuration properties, when you use administrative commands to change server administration properties, you do not have to check out any files nor restart the server. Your changes take effect immediately.
To run administrative commands...
- Open a command window and start the wsadmin command line tool as described in the topic, Starting wsadmin.
- Start the Profiles script with the following command:
- Stand-alone deployment:
execfile("profilesAdmin.py")
- Network deployment:
execfile("WAS_HOME/profiles/Dmgr01/config/bin_lc_admin/ profilesAdmin.py")
- See Profiles administrative commands for acomplete list of editable administrative properties for the Profiles feature.
- Profiles administrative commands
Use the commands listed to edit administrative properties for Profiles. No file checkout or server restart is needed when using these commands.
