Configure custom properties for resource environment providers using scripting

 

You can use scripting to configure custom properties for a resource environment provider. Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Start the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

 

Overview

Perform the following steps to configure a new custom property for a resource environment provider:

 

Procedure

1. Identify the parent ID and assign it to the newrep variable.

   Use Jacl:

   set newrep [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/ResourceEnvironmentProvider:REP1/]
   

   • Use Jython:

     newrep = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/ResourceEnvironmentProvider:REP1/') print newrep
     

   Example output:

   REP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#ResourceEnvironmentProvider_1)
   

2. Identify the required attributes:

   Use Jacl:

   $AdminConfig required J2EEResourceProperty
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.required('J2EEResourceProperty')
     

   Example output:

   Attribute     Type name     String
   

3. Set up the required attributes and assign it to the repAttrs variable:

   Use Jacl:

   set name [list name RP] set rpAttrs [list $name]
   

   • Use Jython:

     name = ['name', 'RP'] rpAttrs = [name]
     

4. Get the J2EE resource property set:

   Use Jacl:

   set propSet [$AdminConfig showAttribute $newrep propertySet]
   

   • Use Jython:

     propSet = AdminConfig.showAttribute(newrep, 'propertySet')  print propSet
     

   Example output:

   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#PropertySet_1)
   

5. Create a J2EE resource property:

   Use Jacl:

   $AdminConfig create J2EEResourceProperty $propSet $rpAttrs
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.create('J2EEResourceProperty', propSet, rpAttrs)
     

   Example output:

   RP(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#J2EEResourceProperty_1)
   

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

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