Work with data replication domain properties files

We can use properties files to create, modify, or delete data replication domain properties and custom properties.

Determine the changes to make to your data replication domain configuration or its configuration objects.

Start wsadmin.sh.

To start wsadmin using the Jython language, run...

WP_PROFILE/bin/wsadmin -lang jython

Use a properties file, you can create, modify, or delete a data replication domain object. We can also create, modify, or delete data replication domain custom properties.

Run administrative commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties file for a data replication domain, validate the properties, and apply them to the configuration.

Actions for data replication domain properties files. We can create, modify, and delete data replication domain properties.

Action	Procedure
create	Set required properties and then run applyConfigProperties.
modify	Edit properties and then run applyConfigProperties to modify the value of a custom property.
delete	Run deleteConfigProperties to delete a property. If the deleted property has a default value, the property is set to the default value. To delete the entire DataReplicationDomain object, uncomment #DELETE=true and then run deleteConfigProperties.
create Property	Not applicable
delete Property	Not applicable

Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:

AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')

Procedure

1. Create or edit a data replication domain properties file.

   1. Set DataReplicationDomain properties as needed.

      Open an editor on an DataReplicationDomain properties file. Modify the Environment Variables section to match the system and set any property value that needs to be changed. An example DataReplicationDomain properties file follows:

      #
      # Header
      #
      ResourceType=DataReplicationDomain
      ImplementingResourceType=DataReplicationDomain
      ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:DataReplicationDomain=myDRDomain
      #DELETE=true
      #
      
      #
      #Properties
      #
      name=myDRDomain #required
      
      #
      EnvironmentVariablesSection
      #
      #
      #Environment Variables
      cellName=IBM-49F7FB781FECell04
      

   2. Run applyConfigProperties to create or change a data replication domain configuration.

      Run applyConfigProperties applies the properties file to the configuration. In this Jython example, the optional -reportFileName parameter produces a report named report.txt:

      AdminTask.applyConfigProperties(['-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt'])
      

2. If you no longer need the data replication domain or an existing custom property, you can delete the entire data replication domain object or the custom property.

   • To delete the entire object, specify DELETE=true in the header section of the properties file and run deleteConfigProperties; for example:

     AdminTask.deleteConfigProperties('[-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt]')
     

   • To delete a custom property, specify only the property to be deleted in the properties file and then run deleteConfigProperties.

Results

We can use the properties file to configure and manage the data replication domain object and its properties.

What to do next

Save the changes to the configuration.
Extract properties files using wsadmin.sh
Create server, cluster, application, or authorization group objects using properties files and wsadmin scripting
Delete server, cluster, application, or authorization group objects using properties files
