Executable Arguments

This command only applies to the base WebSphere Application Server and the WebSphere Application Server - Express products. It specifies the arguments that are passed to the executable when starting the process.

For example, the executable target program might expect three arguments: arg1 arg2 arg3.

Data type String

Working Directory

This command only applies for distributed platforms. It specifies the file system directory that the process uses as its current working directory.

Important: z/OS users should not use theWorking Directory setting on the administrative console. On z/OS, the working directory is always the UNIX System Services directory that is defined via the OMVS setting of the RACF user profile for the user that starts the servant. For z/OS, you cannot use the administrative console to change this setting. Therefore, to provide compatibility between the applications on a z/OS platform and a distributed platform, set the UNIX System Services directory to the same value that was supplied for the Working Directory option on the distributed platform.

The process uses this directory to determine the locations of input and output files with relative path names.

Passivated enterprise beans are placed in the current working directory of the application server on which the beans are running. Make sure the working directory is a known directory under the root directory of the WebSphere Application Server product.
