Coverage includes Mastering the Jython rules, characteristics, and properties that are most valuable in WebSphere scripting Viewing and manipulating WebSphere configuration and run-time details Making the most of the wsadmin scripting engine and objects–including rarely-used wsadmin parameters that can simplify administration Adjusting wsadmin properties to reflect your needs and environment Using the AdminApp scripting object to list, view, install, uninstall, and modify AppServer applications Using the AdminTask object to manipulate WebSphere Application Server at a high level Configuring the WebSphere Application Server with AdminConfig Manipulating active AppServer objects (MBeans) with AdminControl Controlling security, including aliases, roles, administrative and application security, and multiple security domains
IBM® WebSphere® Application Server V8.5 includes a Liberty profile, which is a highly composable, dynamic application server profile. It is designed for two specific use cases: Developers with a smaller production runtime, and production environments. For developers, it focuses on the tasks that a developer does most frequently, and makes it possible for the developer to complete those tasks as quickly and as simply as possible. For production environments, it provides a dynamic, small footprint runtime to be able to maximize system resources. This IBM Redbooks® publication targets administrators of Liberty environments. It provides the information needed to create, configure, and manage Liberty servers. It includes information about managing multiple servers in an installation, including the use of the new administrative capabilities introduced in WebSphere Application Server V8.5.5.7. The following publications are companion publications for this book: WebSphere Application Server: New Features in V8.5.5, REDP-4870 WebSphere Application Server V8.5.5 Technical Overview, REDP-4855 IBM WebSphere Application Server V8.5 Concepts, Planning, and Design Guide, SG24-8022 WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile Guide for Developers, SG24-8076
