Using NodeCreator with XMLs

You can create a node or cluster using the config-topology-standalone-template.xml and

config-topology-cluster-template.xml located at <install_dir>/server/templates/.

Using these XML templates, you can convert existing node types, create nodes for a cluster, and

configure persistence properties for the database, EJB or Web.

Converting a node type is useful if you want to convert an existing, say Standalone J2EE Server to an

EJB cluster type. To do this, open the

config-topology-cluster-template.xml:

<configuration-topology>

<convert-nodes>

<!-- These are nodes for conversion, the server "J2EESAS1" of the given ip in

the <source-node> tag would be converted to the cluster node type given in the

node definition. The target nodenames can be different in which case the

directories will be copied.-->

<node name="EJB1" type="EJB1-cluster" naming-port="9000" http-

port="8000">

<source-node ip="localhost" name="J2EESAS1" />

</node>

</convert-nodes>
