Obtaining the status of the IBM BPM document store

The getDocumentStoreStatus command is used to obtain the status of the IBM BPM document store and the IBM_BPM_DocumentStore application.

Before you begin

The getDocumentStoreStatus command is run using the AdminTask object of the wsadmin scripting client. To run the command, the following conditions must be met:
  • The command must be run on the deployment manager node.
  • One or more application cluster members must be running.
  • The command must be run in connected mode. Do not specify the wsadmin -conntype none option.
  • You must connect to the deployment manager with a user ID that has WebSphere Application Server operator privileges.

Start the wsadmin scripting client from the profile_root/bin directory of the deployment manager profile (or the stand-alone server profile of IBM BPM Express). The getDocumentStoreStatus command does not write to a log file, but the wsadmin scripting client always writes a profile_root/logs/wsadmin.traceout log file where you will find exception stack traces and other information.

Before you attempt to obtain the status of the IBM BPM document store, you should review the topic "Limitations in administering the IBM BPM document store."
