Jython Scripting wsadmin

Klaus Bild provided two scripts for setting Connections Admins through jython and wsadmin.

I want to add one detail, when you want to add multiple Admins, then you can use pipe | as delimiter.

First line would be

connwasadmin='wasadmin|conadmin'

Thanks Klaus, i like to set the admins through a script, because fixpack installations often set the j2ee roles to default.

SocCnx: more scripts added

Because of a delay of some hours on my flight back from Social Connections V on saturday, i had time to rewrite the jython script for backing up and restore security roles in WebSphere Application Server.

I updated the master branch on GitHub , which now contains a db2 initscript and the two new scripts securityrolebackup.py and securityrolerestore.py !

You can call the scripts through wsadmin.sh|bat and they do following.

securityrolebackup.sh 

cd $WAS_HOME/profiles/Dmgr01/bin
./wsadmin.sh -lang jython -username admin -password password -f "path/securityrolebackup.sh" "../temp"

This will save the security roles for each installed application to $WAS_HOME/profiles/Dmgr01/temp to single files named: Application.txt.

Better Navigation in Connections Scripts

I haven’t touched the Connections scripts for a long time, but I recently made some minor updates to fix compatibility issues with newer versions and added small scripts to speed up configuration. I also got the documentation script running from the menu.

New version of “Administration Scripts for WebSphere”

As preparation for Social Connections VI in Prague next week i redesigned the Administration Scripts for IBM Websphere .

Some highlights:

  • all scripts are moved to a subfolder with DMGR/bin (folder name: ibmcnx)

  • tested in multinode environments

  • added some classes everybody can use for his own scripts

  • adding policies to libraries (personal and communities) are using search now

New scripts:

  • documentation of all jvm settings of each application server

  • create a file with all documentation in one step

  • create cluster members for additional nodes

Sharon created a document with the content of all of our presentations and collected several tipps all around connections and community scripts. She will share this next time. We started to share parts of this document and more documentations (installation, usage) for scripts and IBM Connections on:
