Scripts are used to administer the Profiles application. These scripts use the AdminConfig object available in IBM® WebSphere® Application Server wsadmin client to interact with the Profiles server.
Before you begin
To run administrative commands, you must use the wsadmin client. See Starting the wsadmin client for information about how to start the wsadmin command-line tool.
About this task
Note: You cannot use administrative tools to add or remove
a profile from your LDAP directory system. You must use that directory's
native tools to create and delete profiles.
The scripts used
to administer Profiles give an administrator (who otherwise would
not have access to edit a user's profile data), the ability to edit
various fields in a user's profile. For example, one use of the capability
is to remove unwanted or inappropriate content.Unlike with configuration properties, when you use administrative commands to change server administration properties, you do not have to check out any files nor restart the server. Your changes take effect immediately.
Procedure
To run administrative commands, complete the following
steps.
