Starting a cluster 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 start a cluster:

Steps for this task

  1. Identify the ClusterMgr MBean and assign it to the clusterMgr variable.
    • Using Jacl:
      set clusterMgr [$AdminControl completeObjectName cell=mycell,type=ClusterMgr,*]
    • Using Jython:
      clusterMgr = AdminControl.completeObjectName('cell=mycell,type=ClusterMgr,*')
      print clusterMgr
    This command returns the ClusterMgr MBean.
    Example output:
    WebSphere:cell=mycell,name=ClusterMgr,mbeanIdentifier=ClusterMgr,
    type=ClusterMgr,process=dmgr
  2. Refresh the list of clusters.
    • Using Jacl:
      $AdminControl invoke $clusterMgr retrieveClusters
    • Using Jython:
      AdminControl.invoke(clusterMgr, 'retrieveClusters')
    This command calls the retrieveClusters operation on the ClusterMgr MBean.
  3. Identify the Cluster MBean and assign it to the cluster variable.
    • Using Jacl:
      set cluster [$AdminControl completeObjectName cell=mycell,type=Cluster,name=cluster1,*
    • Using Jython:
      cluster = AdminControl.completeObjectName('cell=mycell,type=Cluster,name=cluster1,*')
      print cluster
    This command returns the Cluster MBean.
    Example output:
    WebSphere:cell=mycell,name=cluster1,mbeanIdentifier=Cluster,type=Cluster,process=cluster1
  4. Start the cluster.
    • Using Jacl:
      $AdminControl invoke $cluster start
    • Using Jython:
      AdminControl.invoke(cluster, 'start')
    This command invokes the start operation on the Cluster MBean.
