Overview

This resource allows you to manage a SAF agent in an WebLogic domain.

Here is an example on how you should use this:

wls_safagent { 'jmsSAFAgent1':
  ensure              => 'present',
  persistentstore     => 'jmsFileSAFAgent1',
  persistentstoretype => 'FileStore',
  servicetype         => 'Sending-only',
  target              => ['wlsServer1'],
  targettype          => ['Server'],
}

In this example you are managing a SAF agent in the default domain. When you want to manage a SAF agent in a specific domain, you can use:

wls_safagent { 'my_domain/jmsSAFAgent2':
  ensure      => 'present',
  servicetype => 'Both',
  target      => ['wlsServer2'],
  targettype  => ['Server'],
}

deployment_order

A priority that the server uses to determine when it deploys an item. The priority is relative to other deployable items of the same type. For example, the server prioritizes and deploys all EJBs before it prioritizes and deploys startup classes. Items with the lowest Deployment Order value are deployed first. There is no guarantee on the order of deployments with equal Deployment Order values. There is no guarantee of ordering across clusters.

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 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_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.

log_rotation_time

Determines the start time (hour and minute) for a time-based rotation sequence. At the time that this value specifies, the server renames the current log file. Thereafter, the server renames the log file at an interval that you specify in File Time Span. Note that WebLogic Server sets a threshold size limit of 500 MB before it forces a hard rotation to prevent excessive log file growth. Use the following format: H:mm, where <ul><li>H is Hour in day (0-23). <li>mm is the minute in hour </ul>

maximum_message_size

The maximum number of bytes allowed in individual messages on this SAF agent. <ul> <li> The message size includes the message body, any user-defined properties, and the user-defined JMS header fields: JMSCorrelationID and JMSType. </li> <li> Producers sending messages that exceed the configured maximum message size for the SAF agent will receive a ResourceAllocationException. </li> <li> The maximum message size is only enforced for the initial production of a message. Messages that are redirected to an error destination or forwarded to a member of a distributed destination are not checked for size. For instance, if a destination and its corresponding error destination are configured with a maximum message size of 128K bytes and 64K bytes, respectively, a message of 96K bytes could be redirected to the error destination (even though it exceeds the 64K byte maximum), but a producer could not directly send the 96K byte message to the error destination. </li> <li> Applies only to agents with sending capability. </li> <li> Updating MaximumMessageSize affects only incoming messages; stored messages are not affected. </li> </ul>

message_buffer_size

The amount of memory used to store message bodies in memory before they are paged out to disk. <ul> <li> A value of -1 (the default) specifies that the server will automatically determine a size based on the maximum heap size of the JVM. This default will be set to either one-third the maximum heap size, or 512 megabytes, whichever is smaller. </li> <li> The larger the buffer, the more memory JMS will consume when many messages are waiting on queues or topics. Once the buffer is surpassed, JMS may write message bodies to the directory specified by PagingDirectory in an effort to reduce memory usage below this buffer. </li> <li> Surpassing the buffer size does not stop the JMS server from accepting new messages. It is still possible to run out of memory if messages are arriving faster than they can be written to disk. Users with high messaging loads who wish to support the highest possible availability should consider setting a quota or setting a threshold and enabling flow control. </li> <li> Applies only to agents with sending capability. </li> <li> Paging is always supported. </li> <li> Updating the memory size resets the message count so that only requests arriving after the update are charged against the new memory size. </li> </ul>

messages_maximum

The maximum message quota (total amount of messages) that can be stored in this SAF agent. <ul> <li> The default value of -1 specifies that the server instance has no limit on the number of messages that can be stored. However, excessive message volume can cause memory saturation, so this value should correspond to the total amount of available system memory relative to the rest of your application load. </li> <li> Applies only to sending agents. </li> <li> Updating the maximum message quota resets the message count so that only requests arriving after the update are charged against the new quota. </li> </ul> Range of Values: >= MessagesThresholdHigh
