Configuring new WAS40 data sources using scripting

Before you begin

Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Starting the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

Why and when to perform this task

Perform the following steps to configure a new WAS40 data source:

Steps for this task

  1. Identify the parent ID:
    • Using Jacl:

      set newjdbc [$AdminConfig getid "/JDBCProvider:Cloudscape JDBC Provider/"]
    • Using Jython:
      newjdbc = AdminConfig.getid('/JDBCProvider:Cloudscape JDBC Provider/')
      print newjdbc
    Example output:
    JDBC1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml$JDBCProvider_1)
  2. Get required attributes:
    • Using Jacl:

      $AdminConfig required WAS40DataSource
    • Using Jython:
      print AdminConfig.required('WAS40DataSource')
    Example output:
    Attribute    Type
    name				String
  3. Set up required attributes:
    • Using Jacl:

      set name [list name was4DS1]
      set ds4Attrs [list $name]
    • Using Jython:
      name = ['name', 'was4DS1']
      ds4Attrs = [name]
  4. Create WAS40DataSource:
    • Using Jacl:

      set new40ds [$AdminConfig create WAS40DataSource $newjdbc $ds4Attrs]
    • Using Jython:
      new40ds = AdminConfig.create('WAS40DataSource', newjdbc, ds4Attrs)
      print new40ds
    Example output:
    was4DS1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#WAS40DataSource_1)
  5. Save the configuration changes. See the Saving configuration changes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.
  6. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node. See the Synchronizing nodes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.
