How to read an outbound HTTP connection configuration profile | HCL Digital Experience
This configuration task reads an outbound HTTP connection configuration and exports it to an XML document. System administrators can use this document to update the configuration of an outbound HTTP connection. You can read a global configuration or an application-scoped configuration.
To update an outbound HTTP connection configuration, you first create the XML document by using
use the configuration task read-outbound-http-connection-config
.
Then, you modify the document as required and update the outbound HTTP connection configuration by
using the configuration task update-outbound-http-connection-config
.
The syntax of the configuration task differs, depending on whether you want to read the settings for a global configuration or for an application-scoped configuration.
Reading the global outbound HTTP connection profile
Procedure
- Open a command prompt.
- Change to the wp_profile_root/ConfigEngine directory.
-
Run the following task to read the outbound HTTP connection settings for the global
configuration:
- AIX®:
./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- HP-UX:
./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- IBM® i:
ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- Linux™:
./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- Solaris:
./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- Windows™:
ConfigEngine.bat read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
your_path/config_file.xml is the absolute path name of the XML document to which you want the configuration settings to be written.
- AIX®:
Reading an application-scoped outbound HTTP connection profile
Procedure
- Open a command prompt.
- Change to the wp_profile_root/ConfigEngine directory.
-
Run the following task to read the outbound HTTP connection settings for an application-scoped
configuration:
- AIX®:
./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DApplicationScopeRef=scoperef -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- HP-UX:
./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DApplicationScopeRef=scoperef -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- IBM® i:
ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DApplicationScopeRef=scoperef -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- Linux™:
./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DApplicationScopeRef=scoperef -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- Solaris:
./ConfigEngine.sh read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DApplicationScopeRef=scoperef -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
- Windows™:
ConfigEngine.bat read-outbound-http-connection-config -DConfigFileName=your_path/config_file.xml -DApplicationScopeRef=scoperef -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
your_path/config_file.xml is the absolute path name of the XML document to which you want the configuration settings to be written.
