You can use scripting and the wsadmin tool to configure new referenceables.

Before you begin

Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the topic about starting the wsadmin scripting client for more information.

About this task

Perform the following steps to configure a new referenceable.

Procedure

  1. Identify the parent ID and assign it to the newrep variable.
    • Using Jacl:

      set newrep [$AdminConfig  getid  /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/
      ResourceEnvironmentProvider:REP1/]
    • Using Jython:

      newrep = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/
      ResourceEnvironmentProvider:REP1/')
      print newrep
    Example output:
    REP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#ResourceEnvironmentProvider_1)
  2. Identify the required attributes:
    • Using Jacl:

      $AdminConfig required Referenceable
    • Using Jython:

      print AdminConfig.required('Referenceable')
    Example output:
    Attribute     Type
    factoryClassname   String
    classname   String
  3. Set up the required attributes:
    • Using Jacl:

      set fcn [list factoryClassname REP1]
      set cn [list classname NM1]
      set refAttrs [list $fcn $cn]
    • Using Jython:

      fcn = ['factoryClassname', 'REP1']
      cn = ['classname', 'NM1']
      refAttrs = [fcn, cn]
      print refAttrs
    Example output:
    {factoryClassname {REP1}} {classname {NM1}}
  4. Create a new referenceable:
    • Using Jacl:

      set newref [$AdminConfig create Referenceable  $newrep  $refAttrs]
    • Using Jython:

      newref = AdminConfig.create('Referenceable',  newrep,  refAttrs)
      print newref
    Example output:
    (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#Referenceable_1)
  5. Save the configuration changes.
