Managing failed events using scripts

You can manage failed event sequence instances in the wsadmin scripting client by invoking the operations provided by the FailedEventSequenceManager managed beans (MBeans).

Looking up the MBeans

A FailedEventSequenceManager MBean is registered for each installed monitor model version. The registered MBeans have the monitorModelId and monitorModelVersion key properties defined. You can use these key properties to retrieve the MBean corresponding to a specific monitor model version. Use the AdminControl object provided in the wsadmin scripting client to interact with the MBean.

The following examples use Jython.

The following example shows how to look up all the FailedEventSequenceManager MBeans.

managerNames = AdminControl.queryNames('type=FailedEventSequenceManager,*').splitlines()

The following example shows how to look up the FailedEventSequenceManager MBean for a specific monitor model version. The value of the monitorModelVersion key property is typically a 14 digit number that represents a time stamp. Typically a monitor model version is displayed to a user formatted as a time stamp, such as 2009-08-27T12:03:02. You must remove all non-numeric characters from the timestamp when specifying the monitorModelVersion key property. For example, a monitor model version of 2009-08-27T12:03:02 should be specified as 20090827120302.

managerName = AdminControl.queryNames('type=FailedEventSequenceManager,monitorModelId=MY_MODEL_ID,monitorModelVersion=MY_MODEL_VERSION,*')

Many of the operations on the AdminControl object convert the return values into strings. Because you do not always want this conversion, the AdminControl object also provides operations with names ending in _jmx that do not convert the return values. The AdminControl queryNames operation returns a string version of the MBean's ObjectName, but the _jmx operations require a parameter of type ObjectName. Use the makeObjectName operation on the AdminControl object to retrieve the ObjectName of the MBean.

The following example shows how to look up the FailedEventSequenceManager MBean for a specific monitor model version and retrieve the ObjectName of the MBean.

managerName = AdminControl.queryNames('type=FailedEventSequenceManager,monitorModelId=MY_MODEL_ID,monitorModelVersion=MY_MODEL_VERSION,*')
managerObjectName = AdminControl.makeObjectName(managerName)
