Correct WebSphere Application Server Creation | Generated by AI

Home 2025.10

No, the command nodeName -name serverName admin create applciation server (noting the typo in “applciation”) is not correct for creating an application server in IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) using wsadmin scripting.

Correct Syntax

The proper command uses the AdminTask.createApplicationServer method in Jython (the recommended scripting language for wsadmin). It requires:

Basic example:

AdminTask.createApplicationServer('YourNodeName', ['-name', 'YourServerName'])

Steps to Run It

  1. Start wsadmin in Jython mode: ./wsadmin.sh -lang jython -user admin -password pass.
  2. Execute the command above.
  3. Save the configuration: AdminConfig.save().
  4. Exit: quit.

This creates a basic application server on the specified node. For more options (e.g., ports, JVM settings), refer to the full AdminTask documentation.
