components.overwrite
Optional. Specifies whether to overwrite the component files in the Software AG_directory\MWS\server\serverName\deploy directory that are older than the component files in the Software AG_directory\MWS\components directory. Valid values are:
*true - Overwrite component files in the \deploy directory.
*false - Default. Do not overwrite component files in the \deploy directory.
Usage Notes
*Before creating a new server instance, use the Database Component Configurator to create a unique database or tablespace for the instance, as described in Installing Software AG Products. Not required when using the embedded database (deprecated), or creating a node in My webMethods Server cluster.
*After creating a new server instance, initialize the instance using the init command. The first initialization of a new My webMethods Server instance takes several minutes to complete. After the first initialization, the server automatically shuts down.
Examples
*To create a new instance with name test, running on port 8090, with an external MS SQL Server database with name my_wm_msql, installed on the server db_server:
> mws new -Dserver.name=test -Dhttp.port=8090
-Ddb.type=ms -Ddb.url=jdbc:wm:sqlserver://db_server:1433;
DatabaseName=my_wm_msql;SelectMethod=direct;MaxPooledStatements=100
-Ddb.username=mws_user -Ddb.password=password
[Configuration output displayed in console window....]
> mws -s test run
My webMethods Server connects to the database using the username mws_user, and the password password.
*To create a new instance with name test, running on port 8090, with the embedded database:
> mws new -Dserver.name=test -Dhttp.port=8090
