Creating profiles enabled for a feature pack using the command prompt

A profile includes all of the files that the server processes can change in the runtime environment. You can create a profile enabled for a feature pack by specifying a feature-pack profile template when you run the manageprofiles command.

Before you begin

Install the feature pack on top of an existing Network Deployment installation. Use the installation topics in the information center for installation instructions for the feature pack.

About this task

This example explains how to use the manageprofiles command-line tool to create a deployment manager runtime environment that uses the feature-pack profile templates.

You can create profiles that are enabled for the Feature Pack for XML. The templates for these profiles are located in the app_server_root/profileTemplates/XML directory.

Attention: Do not manually modify the files that are located in the app_server_root/profileTemplates/ directory or its subdirectories. For example, if you are changing the ports during profile creation, then use the Profile Management Tool or the -startingPort or -portsFile arguments on the manageprofiles command instead of modifying the file in the profile template directory.

Use the following steps to create a new profile for the feature-pack environment. This example is for a deployment manager profile.

Procedure

  1. Open your command utility.
    • [AIX Solaris HP-UX Linux Windows] Open a command prompt and navigate to the app_server_root/bin directory.
  2. Create a deployment manager profile that uses the feature-pack environment.

    Be sure to specify the fully qualified file path for the -templatePath parameter. If a relative file path is specified for the -templatePath parameter, then your profile might not be fully enabled.

    For example, enter the following command to create a deployment manager profile enabled for the feature pack:

    [Windows]
    manageprofiles.bat -create -profileName Dmgr01 -templatePath 
    app_server_root\profileTemplates\XML\dmgr.xmlfep
    [Linux] [Solaris] [HP-UX] [AIX]
    manageprofiles.sh -create -profileName Dmgr01 -templatePath 
    app_server_root/profileTemplates/XML/dmgr.xmlfep

Results

The command returns a message indicating success if a profile is created.
