Portal configuration tasks for administering virtual portals
You can use configuration tasks for administering virtual portals.
WebSphere® Portal provides
the following configuration tasks that you can use perform the following
work with virtual portals:
- Create virtual portals
- List all virtual portals
- Modify a virtual portal
- Delete a virtual portal.
Before you use these configuration tasks, read the topics about Planning for virtual portals and Administering virtual portals carefully. For details about the configuration program and about how to use the configuration tasks see Configuring.
You pass the parameters in the parameter list for each
configuration task as appropriate. You do this by either of the following
methods:
- Specifying the parameter and value preceded by -D on the command line.
- Defining them in the file wkplc.properties . Note: The property file must be encoded in the ISO 8859-1 character encoding format.
Notes for z/OS:
- On z/OS®, you configure virtual portals by using the Customization Dialog. The customization jobs generated by the Customization Dialog use the configuration tasks listed here. The information given in these topics is provided for reference purposes only.
- On z/OS, the Customization Dialog provides options for creating, modifying, or deleting a virtual portal, but not for listing virtual portals. However, when you modify or delete a virtual portal, you need the object ID of that virtual portal. When you create, modify, or delete a virtual portal by using the configuration task of the Customization Dialog, the Customization Dialog creates the job EJPSMVPL in your target control data set. You can use this job to list all virtual portals in your configuration. Submit the job EJPSMVPL. Upon completion, examine the job output. Success is indicated with rc=0 in the job output. This way you can determine the object ID of a virtual portal.
