Improved Asadmin Commands

The following is a list of the administration commands that have been introduced or changed from GlassFish in Payara Server to improve the JBatch API.

set-batch-runtime-configuration

Usage

asadmin> set-batch-runtime-configuration --datasourcelookupname="jdbc/default" --executorservicelookupname="concurrent/__defaultManagedExecutorService" --schemaName="APP" --tablePrefix="BJP" --tableSuffix="BJS"

Aim

Configures the batch runtime storage and execution settings.

Command Options

Option Shortcut Description Default Mandatory

--target

N/A

The instance or cluster to configure

server

No

--datasourcelookupname

-d

The JNDI name of the JDBC data source used to store job information

N/A

Yes (unless executorservicelookupname is specified)

--executorservicelookupname

-x

The JNDI name of the Managed Executor Service that provides threads for the jobs' execution.

N/A

Yes (unless datasourceLookupName is used)

--schemaName

-n

The database schema that holds the batch tables.

APP

No

--tablePrefix

N/A

The prefix to apply to the batch table name.

N/A

No

--tableSuffix

N/A

Sets the suffix to apply to the batch table name.

N/A

No

Example

The following command will set the data source, and the prefix and suffix for the DAS:

asadmin > set-batch-runtime-configuration --target="server"
            --datasourcelookupname="jdbc/BatchJobsDS"
            --tablePrefix="BATCHJ_" --tableSuffix="_JB"

purge-jbatch-repository

Since Payara Server 4.1.2.173

Usage

asadmin> purge-jbatch-repository <apptag>

Aim

Purges the current JBatch repository of all jobs scheduled for the referenced application’s tag. The application’s tag is structured like this:

<Configuration Identifier>:<Application Name>__/<Application Name>

Where Configuration Identifier is the identifier of the configuration associated to the instance or cluster where the application is deployed and Application Name is the name of the deployed application.

Command Options

There are no options available.

Example

To remove all current jobs for an application named jbatch-test deployed on the DAS (server-config) then run the following command:

asadmin > purge-jbatch-repository "server-config:jbatch-test__/jbatch-test"
The command will remove all current jobs created by the referenced application whether these jobs are running or not.
If you are having trouble finding the application’s tag for your application, you can get it programmatically on a Java EE application by using the following code: 
import com.ibm.jbatch.container.servicesmanager.ServicesManager;
import com.ibm.jbatch.container.servicesmanager.ServicesManagerImpl;
import com.ibm.jbatch.container.services.IPersistenceManagerService;
...

JobOperator jobOperator = getJobOperator();
Long executionId = jobOperator.start("job-name", new Properties());

ServicesManager manager = ServicesManagerImpl.getInstance();
IPersistenceManagerService ps = manager.getPersistenceManagerService();
String applicationTag = ps.getJobCurrentTag(jobid);

You need to add a dependency to IBM’s JBatch runtime to your project to access the classes mentioned:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.ibm.jbatch</groupId>
    <artifactId>com.ibm.jbatch-runtime-all</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
