Removing configuration objects with the wsadmin tool

Use this task to delete a configuration object from the configuration repository. This action only affects the configuration. Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Starting the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

Overview

Procedure

1. Assign the ID string that identifies the server that you want to remove:

   Using Jacl:

   set s1 [$AdminConfig getid /Node:mynode/Server:myserver/]

   Using Jython:

   s1 = AdminConfig.getid('/Node:mynode/Server:myserver/')

   where:

   set	is a Jacl command
   s1	is a variable name
   $	is a Jacl operator for substituting a variable name with its value
   AdminConfig	is an object that represents the WebSphere Application Server configuration
   getid	is an AdminConfig command
   Node	is an object type
   mynode	is the host name of the node from which the server is removed
   Server	is an object type
   myserver	is the name of the server to remove

2. Remove the configuration object. For example:

   Using Jacl:

   $AdminConfig remove $s1

   • Using Jython:

     AdminConfig.remove(s1)

   where:

   $	is a Jacl operator for substituting a variable name with its value
   AdminConfig	is an object that represents the WebSphere Application Server configuration
   remove	is an AdminConfig command
   s1	evaluates the ID of the server that is specified in step number 2

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

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