About this task

Perform the following steps to configure custom properties for URL providers:

Procedure

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

      set newurlp [$AdminConfig  getid  /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/URLProvider:URLP1/]
    • Using Jython:
      newurlp = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/URLProvider:URLP1/')
      print newurlp
    Example output:
    URLP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#URLProvider_1)
  2. Get the J2EE resource property set:
    • Using Jacl:

      set propSet [$AdminConfig showAttribute $newurlp propertySet]
    • Using Jython:
      propSet = AdminConfig.showAttribute(newurlp, 'propertySet')
      print propSet
    Example output:
    (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#PropertySet_7)
    Avoid trouble Avoid trouble: Quotation marks exist in the output of this command with the propertySet parameter. The existence of these quotation marks might lead to difficulties when you parse the output of the command.gotcha
  3. Identify the required attributes:
    • Using Jacl:

      $AdminConfig required J2EEResourceProperty
    • Using Jython:
      print AdminConfig.required('J2EEResourceProperty')
    Example output:
    Attribute     Type
    name         String
  4. Set up the required attributes:
    • Using Jacl:

      set name [list name RP2]
      set rpAttrs [list $name]
    • Using Jython:
      name = ['name', 'RP2']
      rpAttrs = [name]
  5. Create a J2EE resource property:
    • Using Jacl:

      $AdminConfig create J2EEResourceProperty $propSet $rpAttrs
    • Using Jython:
      print AdminConfig.create('J2EEResourceProperty', propSet, rpAttrs)
    Example output:
    RP2(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#J2EEResourceProperty_1)
  6. Save the configuration changes. See the Saving configuration changes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.
