Administering managed domains, firmware, and settings versions using scripting

Use the wsadmin tool to administer managed domain and firmware version history for the DataPower® appliance manager. You can revert to previous domain and firmware versions that exist in the DataPower appliance manager.

Before you begin

Before you begin, set up the DataPower appliance manager by adding and configuring appliances and managed sets.

About this task

When a DataPower administrator modifies the domain, firmware, or settings, the DataPower appliance manager automatically creates a copy of the previous configuration as domain, firmware, and settings versions if the following conditions apply:
  • The DataPower appliance manager creates domain versions if the appliance is in a managed set and the domain is managed.
  • The DataPower appliance manager only creates firmware versions when the administrator adds new firmware versions to the DataPower appliance manager.
  • The DataPower appliance manager creates settings versions if the appliance is configured in a managed set.

You can use the wsadmin tool to view a history of versions, revert to a previous domains version, or copy a domain version to another managed set. This topic provides examples for modifying the domain, firmware, and settings versions. To view additional information and examples for the commands in this topic, refer to the documentation for the dpManagerCommands command group for the AdminTask object.
