Known differences between WSAdmin and the Administrative Console
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
There are some documented differences between WSAdmin and the Administrative Console.
 
Resolving the problem
URL Rewriting doesn't come to effect after wsadmin script invocation , whereas the config change in "Session Management" of application comes into effect when this change is done through administrative console.

  1. When installing an application to a cluster through the administrative console, at step #11 Map modules to application servers, choose cluster1 in cell S1EMCLC1, the following server name: WebSphere:cell=S1EMCLC1,cluster=cluster1

    However, when installing the application through wsadmin scripting specifying the cluster as follows:
    $AdminApp installInteractive /IBWJ/ears/WPCPVTBEARApr24.ear {-cluster cluster1}

    It automatically maps the modules to a different server name, where S1ENLC1 is the node where one of the clustered servers lives:

    Module: PVTBMDB
    URI: PVTBMDB.jar,META-INF/ejb-jar.xml
    Server: [WebSphere:cell=S1EMCLC1,node=S1ENLC1,cluster=cluster1]:
    Module: WPCPVTBEJB
    URI: WPCPVTBEJB.jar,META-INF/ejb-jar.xml
    Server: [WebSphere:cell=S1EMCLC1,node=S1ENLC1,cluster=cluster1]:
    Module: WPCPVTBWeb
    URI: WPCPVTBWeb.war,WEB-INF/web.xml
    Server: [WebSphere:cell=S1EMCLC1,node=S1ENLC1,cluster=cluster1]:

  2. $AdminConfig list type scope ignores every scope that is more specific than node. WebSphere Portal configuration makes use of $AdminConfig list type scope using server IDs as scope objects. On IBM® WebSphere® Application Server distributed, it correctly returns all objects of the given type in the scope of the server ID. On Application Server z/OS, it returns all objects of the given type in the scope of the server node.
