Return Codes from inoadmin Command Execution

The command line tool inoadmin offers functionality for performing low-level administrative operations on the CentraSite Registry Repository. The functionality provided by inoadmin includes:

Starting and stopping the CentraSite Registry Repository.

Maintaining the internal database that houses the CentraSite Registry Repository.

Configuring port numbers used by the CentraSite Registry Repository.

Configuring Secure Communication between the CentraSite Registry Repository and the CentraSite Application Server Tier.

The tool is located in the directory <CentraSiteInstallDir>/bin. If you call inoadmin without parameters, you receive a summary of the command syntax and the available functions.

You can use environment variables to configure the inoadmin behavior:

Environment variable	Purpose
INOADMIN_OUTPUT_TXT	Determines whether the inoadmin output is displayed as an XML document or as a formatted table. If the value is null (that is, if the value is not defined), the inoadmin output is displayed as an XML document. If any non-null value is specified, a formatted table is displayed.
INOADMIN_NO_ MESSAGE_OUTPUT	Determines whether progress status messages are output while inoadmin calls are running. If this variable is null (that is, if the value is not defined), all progress status messages are output. If any other value is set for this variable, the progress status messages are suppressed and only the result is displayed.
INOADMIN_RUN_AS_JOB	Creates a job log that contains status information generated while inoadmin is running.

If you use inoadmin within a command script, you can use the return status to verify the successful completion of the command. A zero return status means that the command executed successfully, whereas a non-zero return status means that the command did not execute successfully.

To invoke an inoadmin script, use the command inoadmin in the following format:

inoadmin <inoadminScript> <inoadminScript Parameter>

Example:

inoadmin setlocation CentraSite <LocationType> <path> [<path> ...]
