ansible playbook to start and stop a WebSphere application

Question

I was looking for an ansible playbook to start and stop a WebSphere application. Any help will be appreciated...

Thanks you!

Answer 1

The below playbook should be good enough:

- name: Start
  server: 
    state: started 
    wasdir: /usr/local/WebSphere/AppServer/ 
    name: server-01

- name: Stop
  server: 
    state: stopped 
    wasdir: /usr/local/WebSphere/AppServer/ 
    name: server-01

How it will stop and start without  stop.sh and start.sh

You can use this kind of code.

- name: Create
  profile_dmgr:
    state: present
    wasdir: /usr/local/WebSphere/AppServer/
    name: dmgr
    cell_name: devCell
    host_name: localhost
    node_name: devcell-dmgr
    username: admin
    password: allyourbasearebelongtous

- name: Remove
  profile_dmgr:
    state: absent
    wasdir: /usr/local/WebSphere/AppServer/
    name: dmgr

Before running this also set variables like hostname in conf file.
