What is it?
The updateWebServices.sh Qshell command allows one to redeploy web services that are installed in an integrated web services server. The command allows you to specify a list of web services or you can indicate that all web services are to be redeployed. The command usage documentation is as follows:
Command usage:
updateWebServices.sh
-server 'server-name' [ -serviceList 'service-list|*ALL' ]
[ -printErrorDetails ] [ -help ]
Where:
-server is the name of the web services server for which services will be updated.
-serviceList is a colon delimited string listing which services should be updated.
A value of *ALL means all services will be updated. The default value is *ALL.
-printErrorDetails will show additional error information, such as stack
traces and error codes, if the command fails.
-help displays the command syntax.
Notes:
- In order to use the command, the IWS server must be in a stopped state.
- The command currently requires *ALLOBJ authority to be able to run the command.
- Before running the command, you should save the web services in the unlikely case something goes wrong.
Why use it?
The command can be used to update web services automatically without having to manually go through the Web Administration GUI or having to uninstall the web service and then installing the web service via IWS QShell commands. The main benefit in redeploying web services is to pick up fixes or enhancements that have been made in IWS support.
