Working with virtual host properties files

You can use properties files to create or change virtual host properties.

Before you begin

Determine the changes that you want to make to your virtual host configuration or its configuration objects.

Start the wsadmin scripting tool. To start wsadmin using the Jython language, run the wsadmin -lang Jython command from the bin directory of the server profile.

About this task

Using a properties file, you can create, modify, or delete a virtual host object. You can also work with host aliases and mime entries of a virtual host.

Run administrative commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties file for a virtual host, validate the properties, and apply them to your configuration.

Table 1. Actions for virtual host properties files. You can create, modify, and delete virtual host configuration properties.
Action Procedure
create Set required properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
modify Edit required properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
delete To delete an entire virtual host object, uncomment #DELETE=true and run the deleteConfigProperties command.
create Property To add a host alias, add an entry such as the example 9999=* alias to the Host Alias section and then run the applyConfigProperties command.

To add a mime type, add an entry such as the example newMime={a,b,c} to the Mime Types section and then run the applyConfigProperties command.

delete Property To delete an existing host alias, list only that alias in the Properties section of the properties file and then run the deleteConfigProperties command. For example, to delete the example 9999=* alias, keep only that 9999=* alias and remove other properties from the Host Alias section and then run deleteConfigProperties.

Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:

AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')

Procedure

Results

You can use the properties file to configure and manage the virtual host object.
