Working with IBM WebSphere Portal Scripting

Change into the directory where your Portal Scripting Interface is installed: cd /opt/WebSphere/PortalServer/bin

wpscript.bat -port port_number -user user_id -password password

Description of the basic parameters used with the wpscript.bat

Parameter
Description
-lang
Specifies the language of the script file, command, or an interactive shell. Specify one of the following values for the -lang parameter:
  • jacl
  • jython
This parameter is optional and has no default value. This option overrides language determinations that are based on script file names, profile script file names, or the com.ibm.ws.scripting.defaultLang property.
Important: If you do not specify the script language in the command line or as a parameter, and the wsadmin tool cannot determine the script language, an error occurs. If you do not specify the script language as the value for -lang, the wsadmin tool determines the script language as follows:
  • If you specify the -f script_file_name argument, the wsadmin tool determines the language from the name of the target script file.
  • If you specify the -profile profile_script_name argument, the wsadmin tool determines the language from the name of the profile script.
-conntype
The type of connection that should be established between scripting. Valid connection types include:
  • SOAP
  • RMI
  • NONE
The default value is SOAP. This parameter is optional. Use the -conntype NONE option to run in local mode. The result is that the scripting client is not connected to a running server. If the connection type NONE is selected, the scripting beans are inactive and cannot be used for administration, with the exception of the help command.
-port
The connection port number. This parameter is optional.
The port number depends on values chosen during installation. You can verify the value that is set for the WasSoapPort property in the wkplc.properties file found in the appropriate directory given here:
If you are running wpscript on a server that is part of a cell managed by a deployment manager, the port_number can vary depending on what ports are in use on the system when the deployment manager is created. To verify the value, check the setting for SOAP_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS in serverindex.xml located in the appropriate directory given here:
  • AIXHP-UXLinuxSolaris: dmgr_profile_root/config/cells/cell_name/nodes/node_name
  • IBM i: dmgr_profile_root/config/cells/cell_name/nodes/node_name
  • Windows: dmgr_profile_root\config\cells\cell_name\nodes\node_name
-user
The user ID under which you establish the connection. This parameter can be mandatory, depending on your security configuration.
-password
The password for the user ID under which you establish the connection.

Run the following command to login


Portal.login("user_ID", "password")
