Use the -attributes parameter for the setPolicyType and
setBinding commands to specify additional configuration information
for the HTTPTransport policy and policy set binding. Application and
system policy sets can use the HTTPTransport policy and binding.
Use the following commands and parameters
in the PolicySetManagement group of the AdminTask object to customize
your policy set configuration.
- Use the attributes parameter for the getPolicyType and
getBinding commands to view the properties for your policy and binding
configuration. To get an attribute, pass the property name to the
getPolicyType or getBinding command.
- Use the attributes parameter for the setPolicyType and
setBinding commands to add, update, or remove properties from your
policy and binding configurations. To add or update an attribute,
specify the property name and value. The setPolicyType and setBinding
commands update the value if the attribute exists, or adds the attribute
and value if the attribute does not exist. To remove an attribute,
specify the value as an empty string (""). The attributes parameter
accepts a properties object.
Note: If a property name or value supplied with the attributes parameter
is not valid, then the setPolicyType and setBinding commands fail
with an exception. The property that is not valid is logged as an
error or warning in the SystemOut.log file. However, the
command exception might not contain the detailed information for the
property that caused the exception. When the setPolicyType and setBinding
commands fail, examine the SystemOut.log file for any error
and warning messages that indicate that the input for the attributes parameter
contains one or multiple properties that are not valid.
For transitioning users: In WebSphere Application
Server Version 7.0, the security model is enhanced to a domain-centric
security model instead of a server-based security model. The configuration
of the default global security (cell) level and default server level
bindings has also changed in this version of the product. In the WebSphere
Application Server Version 6.1 Feature Pack for Web Services, you
can configure one set of default bindings for the cell and optionally
configure one set of default bindings for each server. In Version
7.0, you can configure one or more general service provider bindings
and one or more general service client bindings. After you have configured
general bindings, you can specify which of these bindings is the global
default binding. You can also optionally specify general binding that
are used as the default for an application server or a security domain.
trns
To support a mixed-cell environment, WebSphere
Application Server supports Version 7.0 and Version 6.1 bindings.
General cell-level bindings are specific to Version 7.0 Application-specific
bindings remain at the version that the application requires. When
the user creates an application-specific binding, the application
server determines the required binding version to use for application.
The following sections explain the policy and binding properties
to configure:
HTTPTransport policy properties
The
HTTPTransport policy set can be used for HTTPS, basic authorization,
compression, and binary encoding transport methods.
Configure
the HTTPTransport policy by specifying the following attributes with
the
setPolicyType command:
- protocolVersion
- Specifies the version of HTTP to use. The valid version values
are HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/1.0.
- maintainSession
- Specifies whether the HTTP session is enabled when a message is
sent. The valid values are yes or no.
- chunkTransferEnc
- Specifies whether to enable chunked transfer encoding. The valid
values are yes or no.
- sendExpectHeader
- Specifies whether to send an expect 100-request header. The valid
values are yes or no.
- compressRequest:name
- Specifies whether to compress the request. The valid values are gzip, x-gzip, deflate,
or none.
- compressResponse:name
- Specifies whether to compress the response. The valid values are gzip, x-gzip, deflate,
or none.
- acceptRedirectionURL
- Specifies whether to accept URL redirection automatically. The
valid values are yes or no.
- messageResendOnce
- Specifies if a message can be sent more than once. The valid values
are yes or no.
- connectTimeout
- Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, before a connection
times out when sending a message. Specify an integer value that is
greater than zero. If a value of zero or less is specified, the connectTimeout
property is set to the default value of 180 seconds. No maximum value
is set for this property.
- writeTimeout
- Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, before the write time
out occurs. Specify an integer value. Specify an integer value that
is greater than zero. If a value of zero or less is specified, the
connectTimeout property is set to the default value of 300 seconds.
No maximum value is set for this property.
- readTimeout
- Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, before the read time
out occurs. Specify an integer value. Specify an integer value that
is greater than zero. If a value of zero or less is specified, the
connectTimeout property is set to the default value of 300 seconds.
No maximum value is set for this property.
- persistConnection
- Specifies whether to use a persistent connection when sending
messages. Valid values are yes or no.
The following setPolicyType example command
sets values for each HTTPTransport binding property:
AdminTask.setPolicyType('[-policySet "WSHTTPS custom" -policyType HTTPTransport -attributes "[[protocolVersion HTTP/1.1]
[sessionEnable yes][chunkTransferEnc yes][sendExpectHeader yes][compressRequest:name gzip][compressResponse:name
gzip][acceptRedirectionURL yes][messageResendOnce no][connectTimeout 300][writeTimeout 300]
[readTimeout 300][persistConnection yes]]"]')
HTTPTransport binding properties
Configure
the HTTPTransport binding by specifying the following attributes with
the
setBinding command:
- outAsyncResponseBasicAuth:userid
- Specifies the user name for basic authentication of outbound asynchronous
responses.
- outAsyncResponseBasicAuth:password
- Specifies the password for basic authentication of outbound asynchronous
responses.
- outAsyncResponseProxy:userid
- Specifies the user name for the outbound asynchronous service
responses proxy.
- outAsyncResponseProxy:password
- Specifies the password for the outbound asynchronous service responses
proxy.
- outAsyncResponseProxy:port
- Specifies the port number for the outbound asynchronous service
responses proxy.
- outAsyncResponseProxy:host
- Specifies the host name for the outbound asynchronous service
responses proxy.
- outRequestBasicAuth:userid
- Specifies the user name or basic authentication of outbound service
requests.
- outRequestBasicAuth:password
- Specifies the password for basic authentication of outbound service
requests.
- outRequestProxy:userid
- Specifies the user name for the outbound service request proxy.
- outRequestProxy:password
- Specifies the password for the outbound service request proxy.
- outRequestProxy:port
- Specifies the port number for the outbound service request proxy.
- outRequestProxy:host
- Specifies the host name for the outbound service request proxy.
The following
setBinding example command
sets values for each HTTPTransport binding property:
AdminTask.setBinding('[-bindingLocation "" -bindingName generalCellWideBind1 -policyType HTTPTransport
-attributes "[[outAsyncResponseBasicAuth:userid myID][outAsyncResponseBasicAuth:password myPW][outAsyncResponseProxy:host hostname]
[outAsyncResponseProxy:port 9060][outAsyncResponseProxy:userid myID][outAsyncResponseProxy:password myPW]
[outRequestBasicAuth:userid myID][outRequestBasicAuth:password myPW][outRequestProxy:userid myID]
[outRequestProxy:password myPW][outRequestProxy:port 9061][outRequestProxy:host hostname]]"]')
