Performing operations on running objects using wsadmin.sh

We can use scripting to invoke operations on running objects.

We can run wsadmin commands that obtain the object names of running objects and perform operations:

Procedure

1. Obtain the object name of the running object. For example:

   ### Jacl
   $AdminControl completeObjectName name 

   ### Jython AdminControl.completeObjectName(name)

2. Set the s1 variable to the running object, for example:

   ### Jacl

   set s1 [$AdminControl completeObjectName type=Server,name=server1,*]
   

   ### Jython

   s1 = AdminControl.completeObjectName('type=Server,name=server1,*')
   

3. Invoke the operation. For example:

   ### Jacl

   $AdminControl invoke $s1 stop
   

   ### Jython

   AdminControl.invoke(s1, 'stop')
   

Example

The following example is for operations that require parameters:

### Jacl

set traceServ [$AdminControl completeObjectName type=TraceService,process=server1,*]
$AdminControl invoke $traceServ appendTraceString "com.ibm.ws.management.*=all=enabled"

### Jython

traceServ = AdminControl.completeObjectName('type=TraceService,process=server1,*')
AdminControl.invoke(traceServ, 'appendTraceString',  "com.ibm.ws.management.*=all=enabled")
