Configure custom properties for URL providers using scripting

Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Starting the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

Perform the following steps to configure custom properties for URL providers:

1. Identify the parent ID and assign it to the newurlp variable.

   • Using Jacl:

     set newurlp [$AdminConfig  getid  /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/URLProvider:URLP1/]

   • Using Jython:

     newurlp = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/URLProvider:URLP1/')
     print newurlp

   Example output:

   URLP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#URLProvider_1)

2. Get the J2EE resource property set:

   • Using Jacl:

     set propSet [$AdminConfig showAttribute $newurlp propertySet]

   • Using Jython:

     propSet = AdminConfig.showAttribute(newurlp, 'propertySet')
     print propSet

   Example output:

   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#PropertySet_7)

3. Identify the required attributes:

   • Using Jacl:

     $AdminConfig required J2EEResourceProperty

   • Using Jython:

     print AdminConfig.required('J2EEResourceProperty')

   Example output:

   Attribute     Type name         String

4. Set up the required attributes:

   • Using Jacl:

     set name [list name RP2]
     set rpAttrs [list $name]

   • Using Jython:

     name = ['name', 'RP2']
     rpAttrs = [name]

5. Create a J2EE resource property:

   • Using Jacl:

     $AdminConfig create J2EEResourceProperty $propSet $rpAttrs

   • Using Jython:

     print AdminConfig.create('J2EEResourceProperty', propSet, rpAttrs)

   Example output:

   RP2(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#J2EEResourceProperty_1)

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

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