Defining variables in cluster-scope with wsadmin

Troubleshooting


Problem

You cannot define IBM WebSphere Application Server variables for a cluster using wsadmin. Defining variables for a server using wsadmin can be done easily with the following commands: #getting the varMap wsadmin>set varMap [$AdminConfig getid /Node:/Server:/VariableMap:/] (cells//nodes//servers/:variables.xml# VariableMap_1) #setting a mapping and creating it in this varMap wsadmin>set attrs [list [list symbolicName Test] [list value 10]] wsadmin>$AdminConfig create VariableSubstitutionEntry $varMap $attrs

Symptom

For a cluster:

wsadmin>set a [$AdminConfig getid /ServerCluster:/]
arztest(cells/tcwas601/clusters/arztest|cluster.xml#ServerCluster1118831111774)

wsadmin>set b [$AdminConfig list VariableMap $a]


The second command returns nothing. A reference to the VariableMap object is not found.
