Configure new protocols using scripting

We can configure new protocols with scripting and the wsadmin tool. See the Start the wsadmin scripting client using wsadmin.sh article for more information.

Configure a new protocol:

Procedure

1. Identify the parent ID:

   ### Jacl

   set newmp [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/MailProvider:MP1/]
   

   ### Jython

   newmp = AdminConfig.create('MailProvider', node, mpAttrs)
   print newmp
   

   Example output:

   MP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#MailProvider_1)
   

2. Get required attributes:

   ### Jacl

   $AdminConfig required ProtocolProvider
   

   ### Jython

   print AdminConfig.required('ProtocolProvider')
   

   Example output:

   Attribute       Type
   protocol      String classname       String 

3. Set up required attributes:

   ### Jacl

   set protocol [list protocol "Put the protocol here"]
   set classname [list classname "Put the class name here"]
   set ppAttrs [list $protocol $classname]
   

   Example output:

   {protocol protocol1} {classname classname1}
   

   ### Jython

   protocol = ['protocol', "Put the protocol here"]
   classname = ['classname', "Put the class name here"]
   ppAttrs = [protocol, classname]
   print ppAttrs
   

   Example output:

   [[protocol, protocol1], [classname, classname1]]
   

4. Create the protocol provider:

   ### Jacl

   $AdminConfig create ProtocolProvider $newmp $ppAttrs
   

   ### Jython

   print AdminConfig.create('ProtocolProvider', newmp, ppAttrs)
   

   Example output:

   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#ProtocolProvider_4)
   

5. Save the configuration changes.

6. Synchronize the node.

Use the wsadmin scripting AdminConfig object for scripted administration
Saving configuration changes with wsadmin.sh
Synchronize nodes using wsadmin.sh
