You can use properties files to create or change mapping
module properties.
Before you begin
Determine the changes that you want to make to your mapping
module configuration or its configuration objects.
Start the
wsadmin scripting tool. To start wsadmin using the Jython language,
run the wsadmin -lang Jython command from the bin directory
of the server profile.
About this task
Using a properties file, you can create, modify, or delete
a mapping module object and its configuration properties.
Run
administrative commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties
file for a mapping module, validate the properties, and apply them
to your configuration.
Table 1. Actions for mapping module properties files. You
can create, modify, and delete mapping module configuration properties.
Action |
Procedure |
create |
Set properties and then run the applyConfigProperties
command. |
modify |
Edit properties and then run the applyConfigProperties
command. |
delete |
Uncomment #DELETE=true and
run the deleteConfigProperties command. |
Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:
AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')
Procedure
- Create a mapping module and its properties.
- Create a properties file for a MappingModule object.
Open an editor and create a mapping module properties file.
You can copy the example properties file in this step into an editor
and modify the properties as needed for your situation. The example
defines a mapping module under a MQQueueConnectionFactory with jndiName myJName.
The factory is defined under a JMSProvider at cell scope:
#
# Header
#
ResourceType=MappingModule
ImplementingResourceType=JMSProvider
ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:JMSProvider=WebSphere MQ JMS Provider:MQQueueConnectionFactory=jndiName#myJName:MappingModule=
AttributeInfo=mapping
#DELETE=true
#
#Properties
#
authDataAlias=myADA
mappingConfigAlias=myMCA
EnvironmentVariablesSection
#
#
#Environment Variables
cellName=WASCell06
- Run the applyConfigProperties command to create a mapping
module configuration.
Running the applyConfigProperties
command applies the properties file to the configuration. In this
Jython example, the optional -reportFileName parameter
produces a report named report.txt:
AdminTask.applyConfigProperties(['-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt '])
- Modify an existing mapping module.
- Obtain a properties file for the mapping module that
you want to change.
You can extract a properties file
for a MappingModule object using the extractConfigProperties command.
- Open the properties file in an editor and change the
properties as needed.
Ensure that the environment variables
in the properties file match your system.
- Run the applyConfigProperties command.
- If you no longer need a mapping module, you can delete
the entire mapping module object.
To delete the entire
object, specify DELETE=true in the header section
of the properties file and run the deleteConfigProperties command;
for example:
AdminTask.deleteConfigProperties('[-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt]')
Results
You can use the properties file to configure and manage
the mapping module object.
What to do next
Save the changes to your configuration.
