You can use properties files to modify or delete key store
file properties of web servers.
Before you begin
Determine the changes that you want to make to your key
store file properties 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 modify or delete a key
store file object.
Run administrative commands using wsadmin
to change a properties file for a key store file, validate the properties,
and apply them to your configuration.

Edit properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command
to modify the value of a custom property. |
delete |
Specify the properties to delete in the properties
file and then run the deleteConfigProperties command
to delete a property. If the deleted property has a default value,
the property is set to the default value. |

Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:
AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')
Procedure
- Modify existing key store file properties.
- Obtain a properties file for the key store file that
you want to change.
You can extract a KeyStoreFile properties
file using the extractConfigProperties command.
- Open the properties file in an editor and change the
custom properties as needed.
Open an editor and specify
key store file custom properties in a properties file. You can copy
the following example properties into an editor and modify the properties
as needed for your situation. To specify a custom property, edit the AttributeInfo value
and properties values. Ensure that the environment variables in the
properties file match your system.
#

- Run the applyConfigProperties command
to change a key store file properties 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'])
- Delete key store file properties.
To delete
one or more properties, specify only those properties to delete in
the properties file and run deleteConfigProperties.
AdminTask.deleteConfigProperties('[-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt]')
Results
You can use the properties file to configure and manage
the key store file object and its properties.
What to do next
Save the changes to your configuration.
