Importing and exporting policy sets to client or server environments using wsadmin scripting

Use the wsadmin tool, which supports the Jython and Jacl scripting languages, to export and import application or system policy sets for web services. The exportPolicySet command creates an archive file based on the policy set configuration, and the importPolicySet command imports a default policy set or policy set from an archive file.

Before you begin

When administrative security is enabled, verify that you use the correct administrative role, as the following table describes:
Table 1. Administrative roles. This table describes the administrative roles and associated authorization when administrative security is enabled.
Administrative role Authorization
Administrator The Administrator role must have cell-wide access to import and export policy sets.
Configurator The Configurator role cannot import and export policy sets.
Deployer The Deployer role cannot import and export policy sets.
Operator The Operator role cannot import and export policy sets.
Monitor The Monitor role cannot import and export policy sets.

About this task

You can use the exportPolicySet and importPolicySet commands to exchange system or application policy sets between servers or between a client and a provider. To reuse a policy set on a new server or client, export the policy set to an archive file, then import the archive file on the destination server or client. This topic provides examples for exporting a policy set, importing a policy set from an archive file, and importing a default policy set.
