3.6.4 WebSphere administration
This section covers the topics related to WebSphere.
Starting the administration server
QEJBSBS must be running. If the default instance is not required, QEJBADMIN and
QEJBMNTR may be ended. Follow these steps:
1. Sign on as QSECOFR.
2. To start a WebSphere instance called
test
, call program STRWSSVR:
CALL PGM(OSLOMD3/STRWSSVR) PARM(TEST)
3. Jobs TESTADMIN and TESTMNTR should be displayed in the QEJBSBS subsystem.
Check the job log of TESTADMIN and wait for the message “WebSphere administration
server TESTADMIN ready”, similar to the default system.
WebSphere cannot start until the administration server is ready.
Importing the configuration file
Follow these steps:
1. The import tool needs to run within Qshell. Run the start Qshell command, and after each
command, wait for $ signs to appear.
STRQSH
2. Switch the current directory within Qshell:
cd /QIBM/ProdData/WebASAdv/bin
3. Import the configuration file Config.xml from OrderManagement/Config.
4. To use the delivered file to configure the test instance running on port 902 on an iSeries,
use the following command, substituting your server name for
iSeries
:
XMLConfig -adminNodeName <iSeries> -import /OrderManagement/test/Config/Config.xml
-instance test -nameServiceHost <iSeries
> -nameServicePort 902
The config.xml file contains the following variables, which are substituted on the import
command and replaced with real names:
$NodeName$: This is the WebSphere node name. It is usually the system name, but it is
case sensitive.
$dir$: This is the root directory for the installation. This is the directory that contains the
subdirectories: cfg, deployed, and log. For an instance called
test
, this could be
/OrderManagement/test. The EJBs to be deployed are in
/OrderManagement/Test/Deployed.
Attention: To import the configuration file, the WebSphere instance must be running.
However, the console must
not be running.
Notes:
Leave a space before each - sign. Leave a space after each keyword, for example
-adminNodeName , -import , and -substitute .
There is only one pair of quotes around the entire substitution string.
