Defined Type: websphere::cluster

This defined type is used for managing WebSphere clusters in a cell.

This defined type is intended to be declared by a DMGR server.

Essentially, this is just a wrapper for our native Ruby types, but it makes it a little easier and abstracted for the end user.

This defined type will manage the existence of a cluster using the websphere_cluster type.

Optionally, it can also be used to collect cluster members that were exported. See Puppet's exported resources documentation for details on exported resources and collecting them.

Example

# Declared on a DMGR
websphere::cluster { 'MyCluster01':
  ensure       => 'present',
  profile_base => '/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles',
  dmgr_profile => 'PROFILE_DMGR_001',
  cell         => 'CELL_01',
  user         => 'webadmin',
}

Parameters

ensure

Specifies whether this cluster should exist or not. Valid values are present and absent.

Defaults to present

profile_base

Required. Specifies the full path to where WebSphere profiles are stored.

The IBM default is /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles

dmgr_profile

Required. The DMGR profile that this cluster should be created under. The wsadmin tool is used from this profile.

Example: PROFILE_DMGR_01

cell

Required. The cell that this cluster should be created under.

cluster

The name of the cluster to manage. Defaults to the resource title.

collect_members

Boolean. Defaults to true.

Specifies whether exported resources relating to WebSphere clusters should be collected by this instance of the defined type.

If true, websphere::cluster::member, websphere_cluster_member, and websphere_cluster_member_service resources will be collected that match this cell.

The use case for this is so application servers, for instance, can export themselves as a cluster member in a certain cell. When this defined type is evaluated by a DMGR, those can automatically be collected.

dmgr_host

The resolvable hostname for the DMGR that this cluster exists on. This is needed for collecting cluster members. Defaults to $::fqdn

user

The user that should run the wsadmin commands. Defaults to $::websphere::user
