Use the commands in the ServerManagement command group
for the AdminTask object or the AdminServerManagement script library
to create a new application server, Web server, proxy server, or generic
server.
Before you begin
There are three ways to complete this task. This topic
uses the AdminConfig object and the commands for the AdminTask object
to create a new server configuration. Alternatively, you can use the
scripts in the AdminServerManagement script library to create an application
server, Web server, proxy server, or generic server.
Procedure
- Start the wsadmin scripting tool.
- Obtain the configuration ID of the node object.
The following examples obtain the configuration ID of
the node object and assign it to the node variable
In these examples, node_name is the name of the
node to which you are adding the new server, server_name is
the name of the server you are creating, template_name is
the name of the template you want used to create the server. The AdminTask.createApplicationServer()
command requires you to specify a node name. The node name must be
enclosed within single quotation marks. The AdminConfig.create() command
requires you to specify the configuration ID of the node object. If
you do not know the configuration ID, issue the AdminConfig.getid('/Node:node_name/')
command to obtain that information.
If you want to display the configuration
ID of the node object, issue the following command:
print node
- Determine whether to use the AdminConfig or AdminTask object
to create the server.
- Create the server.
- The following example uses the commands for the AdminTask
object to create a server:
Using the AdminTask object:
Using Jacl:
$AdminTask createApplicationServer node_name
{-name server_name –templateName template_name}
Using Jython:
AdminTask.createApplicationServer('node_name',
['-name', 'server_name', '-templateName', 'tempate_name'])
- The following example uses the AdminConfig object
to create a server. In these examples node is the
node variable to which the configuration ID of the node object is
assigned.
Using the AdminConfig object:
Using Jacl:
$AdminConfig create Server $node {{name server_name}}
Using Jython:
AdminConfig.create('Server', node, ['name', 'server_name'])
- Save the configuration changes.
Use the following command example to save your configuration
changes:
AdminConfig.save()
- In a network deployment
environment only, synchronize the node.
Use the syncActiveNode or syncNode scripts in the
AdminNodeManagement script library to propagate the configuration
changes to node or nodes.
