wls jms bridge destination
Overview
This resource allows you to manage a jms bridge destination in an WebLogic domain.
Here is an example on how you should use this:
wls_jms_bridge_destination { 'myBridgeDest':
ensure => 'present',
adapter => 'eis.jms.WLSConnectionFactoryJNDINoTX',
classpath => 'myClasspath',
connectionfactoryjndi => 'myCFJndi',
connectionurl => 'myConnUrl',
destinationjndi => 'myDestJndi',
destinationtype => 'Queue',
initialcontextfactory => 'weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory',
}
In this example you are managing a bridge destination in the default domain. When you want to manage a bridge destination in a specific domain, you can use:
wls_jms_bridge_destination { 'my_domain/myBridgeDest':
ensure => 'present',
adapter => 'eis.jms.WLSConnectionFactoryJNDINoTX',
classpath => 'myClasspath',
connectionfactoryjndi => 'myCFJndi',
connectionurl => 'myConnUrl',
destinationjndi => 'myDestJndi',
destinationtype => 'Queue',
initialcontextfactory => 'weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory',
}
Here you can find more information about JMS bridge desitinations.

disable_autorequire
Puppet supports automatic ordering of resources by autorequire. Sometimes, however, this causes issues. Setting this parameter to true
, disables autorequiring for this specific resource.
USE WITH CAUTION!!
Here is an example on hopw to use this:
...{'domain_name/...':
disableautorequire => true,
...

disable_corrective_change
Disable the modification of a resource when Puppet decides it is a corrective change.
(requires easy_type V2.11.0 or higher)
When using a Puppet Server, Puppet knows about adaptive and corrective changes. A corrective change is when Puppet notices that the resource has changed, but the catalog has not changed. This can occur for example, when a user, by accident or willingly, changed something on the system that Puppet is managing. The normal Puppet process then repairs this and puts the resource back in the state as defined in the catalog. This process is precisely what you want most of the time, but not always. This can sometimes also occur when a hardware or network error occurs. Then Puppet cannot correctly determine the current state of the system and thinks the resource is changed, while in fact, it is not. Letting Puppet recreate remove or change the resource in these cases, is NOT wat you want.
Using the disable_corrective_change
parameter, you can disable corrective changes on the current resource.
Here is an example of this:
crucial_resource {'be_carefull':
...
disable_corrective_change => true,
...
}
When a corrective ensure does happen on the resource Puppet will not modify the resource and signal an error:
Error: Corrective change present requested by catalog, but disabled by parameter disable_corrective_change
Error: /Stage[main]/Main/Crucial_resource[be_carefull]/parameter: change from '10' to '20' failed: Corrective change present requested by catalog, but disabled by parameter disable_corrective_change. (corrective)

disable_corrective_ensure
Disable the creation or removal of a resource when Puppet decides is a corrective change.
(requires easy_type V2.11.0 or higher)
When using a Puppet Server, Puppet knows about adaptive and corrective changes. A corrective change is when Puppet notices that the resource has changed, but the catalog has not changed.

This can sometimes also occur when a hardware or network error occurs. Then Puppet cannot correctly determine the current state of the system and thinks the resource is changed, while in fact, it is not. Letting Puppet recreate remove or change the resource in these cases, is NOT wat you want.
Using the disable_corrective_ensure
parameter, you can disable corrective ensure present or ensure absent actions on the current resource.
Here is an example of this:
crucial_resource {'be_carefull':
ensure => 'present',
...
disable_corrective_ensure => true,
...
}
When a corrective ensure does happen on the resource Puppet will not create or remove the resource and signal an error:
Error: Corrective ensure present requested by catalog, but disabled by parameter disable_corrective_ensure.
Error: /Stage[main]/Main/Crucial_resource[be_carefull]/ensure: change from 'absent' to 'present' failed: Corrective ensure present requested by catalog, but disabled by parameter disable_corrective_ensure. (corrective)

domain
With this parameter, you identify the domain, where your objects is in.
The domain name is part of the full qualified name of any WebLogic object on a system. Let’s say we want to describe a WebLogic server. The full qualified name is:
wls_server{'domain_name/server_name':
ensure => present,
...
}
When you don’t specify a domain name, Puppet will use default
as domain name. For every domain you want to manage, you’ll have to put a wls_settings
in your manifest.

notes
Optional information that you can include to describe this configuration. WebLogic Server saves this note in the domain’s configuration file (config.xml
) as XML PCDATA. All left angle brackets (<) are converted to the XML entity <
. Carriage returns/line feeds are preserved. <dl> <dt>Note:</dt> <dd> If you create or edit a note from the Administration Console, the Administration Console does not preserve carriage returns/line feeds. </dd> </dl>
An example on how to use this:
wls_jms_bridge_destination {a_wls_jms_bridge_destination :

password
The bridge password.
Usage :
wls_jms_bridge_destination { ....:
...
password => 'clear_text_password',
...
}
The password string is passed to WebLogic for encryption and then stored in the domain.

provider
The specific backend to use for this wls_jms_bridge_destination
resource. You will seldom need to specify this — Puppet will usually discover the appropriate provider for your platform.Available providers are:
- simple
- Manage a JMS bridge destinaion in an WebLogic domain via regular WLST

tags
Return all tags on this Configuration MBean

user_name
The user name.
Back to overview of wls_jms_bridge_destination
user_password
The user password that the adapter uses to access the bridge destination. As of 8.1 sp4, when you get the value of this attribute, WebLogic Server does the following: <ol><li>Retrieves the value of the UserPasswordEncrypted
attribute. <li>Decrypts the value and returns the unencrypted password as a String. </ol> When you set the value of this attribute, WebLogic Server does the following: <ol><li>Encrypts the value.</li> <li>Sets the value of the UserPasswordEncrypted
attribute to the encrypted value.</li> </ol> Using this attribute (UserPassword
) is a potential security risk because the String object (which contains the unencrypted password) remains in the JVM’s memory until garbage collection removes it and the memory is reallocated. Depending on how memory is allocated in the JVM, a significant amount of time could pass before this unencrypted data is removed from memory. Instead of using this attribute, use UserPasswordEncrypted
.
An example on how to use this:
wls_jms_bridge_destination {a_wls_jms_bridge_destination :

user_password => 'a_value'

This is an extended property. Before you can use it add it to the wls_settings
property extra_properties
