Working with data replication domain properties files

You can use properties files to create, modify, or delete data replication domain properties and custom properties.

Before you begin

Determine the changes that you want to make to your data replication domain 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 data replication domain object. You can also create, modify, or delete data replication domain custom properties.

Run administrative commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties file for a data replication domain, validate the properties, and apply them to your configuration.

Table 1. Actions for data replication domain properties files. You can create, modify, and delete data replication domain properties.
Action Procedure
create Set required properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
modify Edit properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command to modify the value of a custom property.
delete Run the deleteConfigProperties command to delete a property. If the deleted property has a default value, the property is set to the default value. To delete the entire DataReplicationDomain object, uncomment #DELETE=true and then run the deleteConfigProperties command.
create Property Not applicable
delete Property Not applicable

Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:

AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')

Procedure

  1. Create or edit a data replication domain properties file.
    1. Set DataReplicationDomain properties as needed.

      Open an editor on an DataReplicationDomain properties file. Modify the Environment Variables section to match your system and set any property value that needs to be changed. An example DataReplicationDomain properties file follows:

      #
      # Header
      #
      ResourceType=DataReplicationDomain
      ImplementingResourceType=DataReplicationDomain
      ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:DataReplicationDomain=myDRDomain
      #DELETE=true
      #
      
      #
      #Properties
      #
      name=myDRDomain #required
      
      #
      EnvironmentVariablesSection
      #
      #
      #Environment Variables
      cellName=IBM-49F7FB781FECell04
    2. Run the applyConfigProperties command to create or change a data replication domain 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'])
  2. If you no longer need the data replication domain or an existing custom property, you can delete the entire data replication domain object or the custom property.
    • 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]') 
    • To delete a custom property, specify only the property to be deleted in the properties file and then run the deleteConfigProperties command.

Results

You can use the properties file to configure and manage the data replication domain object and its properties.

What to do next

Save the changes to your configuration.
