VariableConfiguration command group
Use the Jython or Jacl scripting languages to configure servers with wsadmin.sh. The commands and parameters in the VariableConfiguration group can be used to remove variable definitions from the system, to set values for variables, or to query for variable values with a specific scope.
The VariableConfiguration command group includes the following commands:
removeVariable
Use the removeVariable command to remove a variable definition from the system. A variable is a configuration property that you can use to provide a parameter for some values in the system.
Target object
None
Parameters and return values
-variableName
The name of the variable. (String, required)
-scope
The scope of the variable definition. The default is Cell. (String, optional)
The syntax of the scope parameter is Type=value
Supported types are Cell, Node, Servers, Application and Cluster, for example:
- Node=node1
- Node=node1, Server=server1
- Application=app1
- Cluster=cluster1
- Cell=cell1
-node
The name of the node. This parameter is only needed for server scopes that do not have unique name across nodes. (String, optional) Examples
Interactive mode example usage:
### Jacl
$AdminTask removeVariable {-interactive}### Jython string
AdminTask.removeVariable ('[-interactive]')
Jython list:
AdminTask.removeVariable (['-interactive'])
setVariable
Use the setVariable command to set the value for a variable. A variable is a configuration property that you can use to provide a parameter for some values in the system.
Target object
None
Parameters and return values
-variableName
The name of the variable. (String, required)
-scope
The scope of the variable definition. The default is Cell. (String, optional)
The syntax of the scope parameter is Type=value, for example:
- Node=node1
- Node=node1,Server=server1
- Application=app1
- Cluster=cluster1
- Cell=cell1
.
-node
The name of the node. This parameter is only needed for server scopes that do not have unique name across nodes. (String, optional)
-variableValue
The value of the variable. (String, optional)
-variableDescription
The description of the variable. (String, optional) Examples
Batch example...
### Jacl
$AdminTask setVariable {-variableName varname1 -scope Cell=localhostNode01Cell,Node= localhostNode01}### Jython string
AdminTask.setVariable('[-variableName varname1 -scope Cell=localhostNode01Cell,Node= localhostNode01]')
Jython list:
AdminTask.setVariable(['-variableName', 'varname1', '-scope', 'Cell=localhostNode01Cell,Node= localhostNode01'])
Interactive example...
### Jacl
$AdminTask setVariable {-interactive}### Jython string
AdminTask.setVariable ('[-interactive]')
Jython list:
AdminTask.setVariable (['-interactive'])
showVariables
Use the showVariables command to list variable values under a scope.
Target object
None
Parameters and return values
- scope
The scope of the variable definition. The default is Cell. (String, optional)
The syntax of the scope parameter is Type=value
Supported types are Cell, Node, Servers, Application and Cluster, for example:
- Node=node1
- Node=node1, Server=server1
- Application=app1
- Cluster=cluster1
- Cell=cell1
-node
The name of the node. This parameter is only needed for server scopes that do not have unique name across nodes. (String, optional)
-variableName
The name of the variable. If you specify this parameter, the value of this variable is returned. If not specified, all variables defined under the scope will return in list format where each element is a variable name and value pair. (String, optional) Examples
Interactive mode example usage:
### Jacl
$AdminTask showVariables {-interactive}### Jython string
AdminTask.showVariables ('[-interactive]')
Jython list:
AdminTask.showVariables (['-interactive'])
Use the wsadmin scripting AdminTask object for scripted administration
