You can use properties files to create or change mail session
properties.
Before you begin
Determine the changes that you want to make to your mail
session 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 mail session object and its configuration properties.
Run
administrative commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties
file for a mail session, validate the properties, and apply them to
your configuration.
Table 1. Actions
for mail session properties files. You can create, modify,
and delete mail session configuration properties.Action |
Procedure |
create |
Set properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command. |
modify |
Edit properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command. |
delete |
Uncomment #DELETE=true and
run the deleteConfigProperties command. |
Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:
AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')
Procedure
- Create a mail session and its properties.
- Create a properties file for a MailSession object.
Open an editor and create a mail session properties file.
You can copy an example properties file in this step into an editor
and modify the properties as needed for your situation.
The
following example defines a mail session with jndiName myJndiName under
a mail provider named Built-in Mail Provider at cell
scope:
#
# Header
#
ResourceType=MailSession
ImplementingResourceType=MailSession
ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:MailProvider=Built-in Mail Provider:MailSession=jndiName#myJndiName
#DELETE=true
#
#
#Properties
#
mailStorePort=0 #integer,default(0)
mailFrom=null
mailTransportPort=0 #integer,default(0)
mailStoreHost=null
providerType=null
mailTransportHost=null
mailStorePassword=null
debug=false #boolean,default(false)
mailStoreUser=null
category=null
description=myJndiName #required
mailTransportUser=null
ObjectName=null
mailStoreProtocol=null
provider=Built-in Mail Provider #ObjectName(MailProvider),readonly
String=null
mailTransportPassword=null
strict=true #boolean,default(true)
name=myName #required

- Run the applyConfigProperties command
to create a mail session configuration.
Running the applyConfigProperties command
applies the properties file to the configuration. In this Jython example,
the optional -reportFileName parameter produces a
report named report.txt:
AdminTask.applyConfigProperties(['-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt'])
- Modify an existing mail session.
- Obtain a properties file for the mail session that you
want to change.
You can extract a properties file for
a MailSession object using the extractConfigProperties command.
- Open the properties file in an editor and change the
properties as needed.
Ensure that the environment variables
in the properties file match your system.
- Run the applyConfigProperties command
to change a mail session configuration.
- If you no longer need a mail session, you can delete the
entire mail session object.
To delete the entire object,
specify DELETE=true in the header section of the
properties file and run the deleteConfigProperties command;
for example:
AdminTask.deleteConfigProperties('[-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt]')
Results
You can use the properties file to configure and manage
the mail session object.
What to do next
Save the changes to your configuration.
