Configuration data for the WebSphere® Application
Server product resides in files. Two services help you reconfigure
and otherwise manage these files: the file transfer service and file
synchronization service.
About this task
By default, the file transfer service is always configured
and enabled at a node agent, so you do not need to take additional
steps to configure this service. However, you might need to configure
the file synchronization service.
Procedure
- Go to the File Synchronization Service page. Click in the console navigation tree. Then, click the node
agent for which you want to configure a synchronization server and
click File synchronization service.
- On the File Synchronization Service page, customize the
service that helps make configuration data consistent across a cell
by moving updated configuration files from the deployment manager
to the node. Change the values for properties on the
File Synchronization Service page. The file synchronization
service is always started, but you can control how it runs by changing
the values.
- By default if node synchronization fails five times consecutively,
automatic synchronization is disabled. To keep automatic synchronization
enabled, specify a custom property on the Java virtual
machine (JVM) of node agent using the administrative console.
- Click . Click on the node agent for which you want
to configure the optional custom property.
- Under Server Infrastructure, expand Java
and Process Management then click .
- Click New.
- Specify a name and value for the custom property.
The com.ibm.websphere.management.sync.allowfailure custom
property:
To keep automatic synchronization enabled, specify
this custom property with a value of
true.
