To encode passwords in properties files Using the PropFilePasswordEncoder script.

PropFilePasswordEncoder fileName { passwordPropertiesList | -SAS } [ -profileName profile ] [ -help | -? ]

Parameters

fileName
This required parameter specifies the name of file in which passwords are encoded.

passwordPropertiesList
This parameter is required if you are encoding passwords in the soap.client.props file. Specify a one or more password properties that you want to encode.

-SAS
This parameter is required if you are encoding passwords in the sas.client.props file.

-profileName
This is an optional parameter. The value profile specifies an application server profile name. The script uses the password encoding algorithm that it retrieves from the specified profile. If you do not specify this parameter, the script uses the default profile.

-help or -?
If you specify this parameter, the script ignores all other parameters and displays usage text.

Example

C:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\bin\PropFilePasswordEncoder.bat "C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\Dmgr01\properties"\soap.client.props com.ibm.SOAP.loginPassword

Below is the Output

com.ibm.SOAP.loginUserid=Test1
com.ibm.SOAP.loginPassword={xor}DwwcazsybjE=

Enabling Verbose garbage collection for Server at server level

server_id = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:' + cellName + '/Node:' + nodename + '/Server:' + serverName)
jvm = AdminConfig.list('JavaVirtualMachine', server_id)
AdminConfig.modify(jvm, [['verboseModeGarbageCollection', 'true']])

Procedure to Backing up Websphere Application Profiles

Open the command prompt.
Browse to the <was_home>\bin directory. For example, you can type the following: cd <was_home>\bin For example:
cd c:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\bin

Use the WebSphere Application Server manageprofiles command with the backupProfile parameter.
manageprofiles.bat -backupProfile -profileName <profile_name> -backupFile <backupFile_name>

Stand-alone

manageprofiles.bat -backupProfile -profileName AppSrv01 -backupFile c:\backup\AppSrv01.zip
for example

C:\ProgramFiles\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\bin>backupConfig.bat C:\was-setup\AppSrv01_backup.zip -logfile backup.log

Network deployment

manageprofiles.bat -backupProfile -profileName Dmgr01 -backupFile c:\backup\Dmgr01.zip


Parameters
The following options are available for the backupConfig command:

-nostop
Tells the backupConfig command not to stop the servers before backing up the configuration

-quiet
Suppresses the progress information that the backupConfig command prints in normal mode

-logfile file_name
Specifies the location of the log file to which trace information is written
By default, the log file is named backupConfig.log and is created in the logs directory.


-profileName profile_name
Defines the profile of the application server process in a multi-profile installation
The -profileName option is not required for running in a single-profile environment. The default for this option is the default profile.

-replacelog
Replaces the log file instead of appending to the current log

-trace
Generates trace information into the log file for debugging purposes

-username user_name
Specifies the user name for authentication if security is enabled in the server

-user user_name
Specifies the user name for authentication if security is enabled in the server; acts the same as the -username option

-password password
Specifies the password for authentication if security is enabled in the server
