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.

It was little bit quiet here after Connect 2014. I had lots of projects and no time to add new scripts or even do bug fixing. I promised at Connect, that i will fix the JDBC drivers, that they will load on Windows too. See cnxMemberCheckExIDByEmail.py as an example. Loading JDBC Drivers within jython scripts Jan Riedel sent me a solution for SLES and i tested his proposal today within Windows. He points me in the right direction, i mustn’t load the path or jar within the script, it is better to load on starting wsadmin. You have to add the JDBC Driver path to WAS_EXT_DIRS.

I started a new project on OpenNTF for the collection of scripts we created to speed up and simplify WebSphere and Connections Administration. Link to this project: Administration Scripts for WebSphere In the moment most of documentation is only as comment in these scripts. Descriptions can be found in Github and Scripting101 . Highlights J2EE Security Role Backup and Restore Set initial Security Roles for Connections Applications (Author: Klaus Bild ) Documentation When you want to start with this collection, copy the jython script to your Deployment Manager bin-folder ($WAS_HOME/profiles/Dmgr01/bin) and call the scripts with wsadmin.sh -f scriptname I will create more documentation in the next days.

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.
