server task show

The server task show command displays detailed information about the specified WebSEAL junction.

Requires authentication (administrator ID and password) to use this command.

Syntax

server task instance_name-webseald-host_name show junction_point

Options

instance_name-webseald-host_name

Specifies the full server name of the installed WebSEAL instance. You must specify this full server name in the exact format as displayed in the output of the server list command.

The instance_name specifies the configured name of the WebSEAL instance. The webseald designation indicates that the WebSEAL service performs the command task. The host_name is the name of the physical machine where the WebSEAL server is installed.

For example, if the configured name of a single WebSEAL instance is default, and host machine name where the WebSEAL server is installed is abc.ibm.com, the full WebSEAL server name is default-webseald-abc.ibm.com.

If an additional WebSEAL instance is configured and named web2, the full WebSEAL server name is web2-webseald-abc.ibm.com.

junction_point

Specifies the name of the directory in the WebSEAL protected object space where the document space of the back-end server is mounted.

Authorization

Users and groups that require access to this command must be given the l (list) permission in the ACL that governs the /WebSEAL/host_name-instance_name/junction_point object. For example, the sec_master administrative user has permission by default.

Return codes

0: The command completed successfully. For WebSEAL server task commands, the return code becomes 0 when the command is sent to the WebSEAL server without errors.
Note: Even if the command was successfully sent, the WebSEAL server might not be able to successfully complete the command and can return an error message.
1: The command failed. When a command fails, the pdadmin command provides a description of the error and an error status code in hexadecimal format (for example, 0x14c012f2). See "Error messages" in the IBM Knowledge Center which provides a list of the Verify Identity Access error messages by decimal or hexadecimal codes.

Note: For more information about WebSEAL junctions, see the IBM Verify Identity Access for Web: WebSEAL Administration Guide.

This command is available only when WebSEAL is installed.
