You can use properties files to create or change uniform
resource locator (URL) properties.
Before you begin
Determine the changes that you want to make to your URL
configuration.
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 URL object and its configuration properties.
Run administrative
commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties file for a
URL instance, validate the properties, and apply them to your configuration.
Table 1. Actions for URL properties
files. You can create, modify, and delete URL 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 URL and its properties.
- Create a properties file for a URL object.
Open
an editor and create a URL properties file. You can copy the example
properties file in this step into an editor and modify the properties
as needed for your situation.
An example properties
file for a URL named myURLJndiName under the Default
URL Provider at cell scope follows:
#
# Header
#
ResourceType=URL
ImplementingResourceType=GenericType
ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:URLProvider=Default URL Provider:URL=jndiName#myURLJndiName
#DELETE=true
#
#
#Properties
#
spec=mySpec #required
name=myName #required
description=null
category=null
providerType=null
provider=Default URL Provider #ObjectName(URLProvider)
jndiName=myURLJndiName #required

#
#Environment Variables
cellName=WASCell06
- Run the applyConfigProperties command to create a URL
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 URL.
- Obtain a properties file for the URL that you want to
change.
You can extract a properties file for a URL
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 to change a URL
configuration.
- If you no longer need a URL, you can delete the entire
URL 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 URL object.
What to do next
Save the changes to your configuration.
