Commands for the AdminApp object using wsadmin scripting

Use the AdminApp object to install, modify, and administer applications.

The AdminApp object interacts with the WebSphere® Application Server management and configuration services to make application inquiries and changes. This interaction includes installing and uninstalling applications, listing modules, exporting, and so on.

You can start the scripting client when no server is running, if you want to use only local operations. To run in local mode, use the -conntype NONE option to start the scripting client. You receive a message that you are running in the local mode. Running the AdminApp object in local mode when a server is currently running is not recommended. This is because any configuration changes made in local mode will not be reflected in the running server configuration and vice versa. If you save a conflicting configuration, you could corrupt the configuration.

Important: If you are deploying an application in the local mode using wsadmin -conntype NONE, you must modify the wsadmin.bat or wsadmin.sh command file in the install_root/bin directory. Complete the following steps:

Make a backup copy of the install_root/bin/wsadmin.bat or install_dir/bin/wsadmin.bat file.
Add the following lines of code to the wsadmin file directly after the call to the setupCmdLine.bat or setupCmdLine.sh file:
```
LIBPATH="$WAS_LIBPATH":$LIBPATH
export LIBPATH EXTSHM
```
```
SHLIB_PATH="$WAS_LIBPATH":$SHLIB_PATH
export SHLIB_PATH
```
```
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$WAS_LIBPATH":$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
```
```
SET PATH=%WAS_PATH%
```
Avoid trouble: Do not specify LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH on the preceding export statement. Specifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 on that export statement overrides any LD_LIBRARY_PATH values that exist in other scripts.
Save the updated wsadmin.bat or wsadmin.sh file.
Deploy the application.

In a deployment manager environment, configuration updates are available only if a scripting client is connected to a deployment manager.

When connected to a node agent or a managed application server, you are not able to update the configuration because the configuration for these server processes are copies of the master configuration which resides in the deployment manager. The copies are created on a node machine when a configuration synchronization occurs between the deployment manager and the node agent. Make configuration changes to the server processes by connecting a scripting client to a deployment manager. For this reason, to change a configuration, do not run a scripting client in local mode on a node machine. It is not a supported configuration.

The following note applies to the xmi file references in this topic:

Supported configurations: For IBM® extension and binding files, the .xmi or .xml file name extension is different depending on whether you are using a pre-Java EE 5 application or module or a Java™ EE 5 or later application or module. An IBM extension or binding file is named ibm-*-ext.xmi or ibm-*-bnd.xmi where * is the type of extension or binding file such as app, application, ejb-jar, or web. The following conditions apply:

For an application or module that uses a Java EE version prior to version 5, the file extension must be .xmi.
For an application or module that uses Java EE 5 or later, the file extension must be .xml. If .xmi files are included with the application or module, the product ignores the .xmi files.

However, a Java EE 5 or later module can exist within an application that includes pre-Java EE 5 files and uses the .xmi file name extension.

The ibm-webservices-ext.xmi, ibm-webservices-bnd.xmi, ibm-webservicesclient-bnd.xmi, ibm-webservicesclient-ext.xmi, and ibm-portlet-ext.xmi files continue to use the .xmi file extensions.

update

Use the update command to update an application in non-interactive mode. This command supports the addition, removal, and update of application subcomponents or the entire application. Provide the application name, content type, and update options.

Target object

None.

Required parameters

application name

Specifies the name of the application to update.

content type

Use the content type parameter to indicate if you want to update part of the application or the entire application. The following list includes the valid content type values for the update command:

app - Indicates that you want to update the entire application. This option is the same as indicating the update option with the install command. With the app value as the content type, you must specify the operation option with update as the value. Provide the new enterprise archive (EAR) file using the contents option. You can also specify binding information and application options. By default, binding information for installed modules is merged with the binding information for updated modules. To change this default behavior, specify the update.ignore.old or the update.ignore.new options.
file - Indicates that you want to update a single file. You can add, remove, or update individual files at any scope within the deployed application. With the file value as the content type, you must perform operations on the file using the operation option. Depending on the type of operation, additional options are required. For file additions and updates, you must provide file content and the file URI relative to the root of the EAR file using the contents and contenturi options. For file deletion, you must provide the file URI relative to the root of the EAR file using the contenturi option which is the only required input. Any other options that you provide are ignored.
modulefile - Indicates that you want to update a module. You can add, remove, or update an individual application module. If you specify the modulefile value as the content type, you must indicate the operation that you want to perform on the module using the operation option. Depending on the type of operation, further options are required. For installing new modules or updating existing modules in an application, you must indicate the file content and the file URI relative to the root of the EAR file using the contents and contenturi options. You can also specify binding information and application options that pertain to the new or updated modules. For module updates, the binding information for the installed module is merged with the binding information for the input module by default. To change the default behavior, specify the update.ignore.old or the update.ignore.new options. To delete a module, indicate the file URI relative to the root of the EAR file.
Restriction: Generally, you cannot add or update a module if it depends on other classes outside the module, such as classes within an optional package or library. Client-side processing involves introspecting input module classes and those classes might not load successfully unless class dependencies also are resolved. You can add or update a module if you make the required classes available on a file system that is accessible through wsadmin scripting. Through wsadmin scripting, you can modify the com.ibm.ws.scripting.classpath property in the profile_root/properties/wsadmin.properties file to include those classes so that the class loader can resolve them.
partialapp - Indicates that you want to update a partial application. Using a subset of application components provided in a compressed .zip file format you can update, add, and delete files and modules. The compressed file is not a valid Java 2 platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) archive. Instead, it contains application artifacts in the same hierarchical structure as they display in an EAR file. For more information on how to construct the partial application compressed file, see the Java API section. If you indicate the partialapp value as the content type, use the contents option to specify the location of the compressed file. When a partial application is provided as an update input, binding information and application options cannot be specified and are ignored, if provided.

Optional parameters

options: There are many options available for the update command. For a list of each valid option for the update command, see Options for the AdminApp object install, installInteractive, edit, editInteractive, update, and updateInteractive commands using wsadmin scripting.

[8.5.5.16 or later] When a full application update is performed, the application analysis report is deleted and not recoverable even if a configuration save is not performed.

$AdminApp update myApp file {-operation add -contents c:/apps/myApp/web.xml 
-contenturi META-INF/web.xml}

$AdminApp update myApp file {-operation add -contents /apps/myApp/web.xml 
-contenturi META-INF/web.xml}

Using Jython:

print AdminApp.update('myApp', 'file', '[-operation add -contents c:/apps/myApp/web.xml 
-contenturi META-INF/web.xml]')

print AdminApp.update('myApp', 'file', '[-operation add -contents /apps/myApp/web.xml 
-contenturi META-INF/web.xml]')

Using Jython list:

print AdminApp.update('myApp', 'file', ['-operation', 'add', '-contents', 'c:/apps/myApp/web.xml',
 '-contenturi',  'META-INF/web.xml'])

print AdminApp.update('myApp', 'file', ['-operation', 'add', '-contents', '/apps/myApp/web.xml', 
'-contenturi',  'META-INF/web.xml'])

updateAccessIDs

Use the updateAccessIDs command to update the access ID information for users and groups that are assigned to various roles that are defined in the application. The system reads the access IDs from the user registry and saves the IDs in the application bindings. This operation improves runtime performance of the application. Use this command after installing an application or after editing security role-specific information for an installed application. This method cannot be invoked when the -conntype option for the wsadmin tool is set to NONE. You must be connected to a server to invoke this command.

Target object

None.

Required parameters

application name: Specifies the name of the application of interest.
bALL: The bALL boolean parameter retrieves and saves all access IDs for users and groups in the application bindings. Specify false to retrieve access IDs for users or groups that do not have an access ID in the application bindings.

Examples

Using Jacl or true:
```
$AdminApp updateAccessIDs myapp true
```
Using Jacl for false:
```
$AdminApp updateAccessIDs myapp false
```

Using Jython for true:

print AdminApp.updateAccessIDs('myapp', 1)

Using Jython for false:

print AdminApp.updateAccessIDs('myapp', 0)

updateInteractive

Use the updateInteractive command to add, remove, and update application subcomponents or an entire application. When you update an application module or an entire application using interactive mode, the steps that you use to configure binding information are similar to those that apply to the installInteractive command. If you update a file or a partial application, the steps that you use to configure the binding information are not available. In this case, the steps are the same as the ones you use with the update command.

Target object

None.

Required parameters

application name

Specifies the name of the application to update.

content type

Use the content type parameter to indicate if you want to update part of the application or the entire application. The following list includes the valid content type values for the updateInteractive command:

app - Indicates that you want to update the entire application. This option is the same as indicating the update option with the install command. With the app value as the content type, you must specify the operation option with update as the value. Provide the new enterprise archive (EAR) file using the contents option. You can also specify binding information and application options. By default, binding information for installed modules is merged with the binding information for updated modules. To change this default behavior, specify the update.ignore.old or the update.ignore.new options.
file - Indicates that you want to update a single file. You can add, remove, or update individual files at any scope within the deployed application. With the file value as the content type, you must perform operations on the file using the operation option. Depending on the type of operation, additional options are required. For file additions and updates, you must provide file content and the file URI relative to the root of the EAR file using the contents and contenturi options. For file deletion, you must provide the file URI relative to the root of the EAR file using the contenturi option which is the only required input. Any other options that you provide are ignored.
modulefile - Indicates that you want to update a module. You can add, remove, or update an individual application module. If you specify the modulefile value as the content type, you must indicate the operation that you want to perform on the module using the operation option. Depending on the type of operation, further options are required. For installing new modules or updating existing modules in an application, you must indicate the file content and the file URI relative to the root of the EAR file using the contents and contenturi options. You can also specify binding information and application options that pertain to the new or updated modules. For module updates, the binding information for the installed module is merged with the binding information for the input module by default. To change the default behavior, specify the update.ignore.old or the update.ignore.new options. To delete a module, indicate the file URI relative to the root of the EAR file.
Restriction: Generally, you cannot add or update a module if it depends on other classes outside the module, such as classes within an optional package or library. Client-side processing involves introspecting input module classes and those classes might not load successfully unless class dependencies also are resolved. You can add or update a module if you make the required classes available on a file system that is accessible through wsadmin scripting. Through wsadmin scripting, you can modify the com.ibm.ws.scripting.classpath property in the profile_root/properties/wsadmin.properties file to include those classes so that the class loader can resolve them.
partialapp - Indicates that you want to update a partial application. Using a subset of application components provided in a compressed .zip file format you can update, add, and delete files and modules. The compressed file is not a valid Java 2 platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) archive. Instead, it contains application artifacts in the same hierarchical structure as they display in an EAR file. For more information on how to construct the partial application compressed file, see the Java API section. If you indicate the partialapp value as the content type, use the contents option to specify the location of the compressed file. When a partial application is provided as an update input, binding information and application options cannot be specified and are ignored, if provided.

Optional parameters

options: There are many options available for the updateInteractive command. For a list of each valid option for the updateInteractive command, see Options for the AdminApp object install, installInteractive, edit, editInteractive, update, and updateInteractive commands using wsadmin scripting.

[8.5.5.16 or later] When a full application update is performed, the application analysis report is deleted and not recoverable even if a configuration save is not performed.
