How do I determine if an application is running using wsadmin Jython script?

Question

I can get a list of instlled applications but how do I get the status using Jython?

Answer 1

Here is what I use based on Snehan's answer.

import string

def getAppStatus(appName):
    # If objectName is blank, then the application is not running.
    objectName = AdminControl.completeObjectName('type=Application,name=' + appName + ',*')
    if objectName == "":
        appStatus = 'Stopped'
    else:
        appStatus = 'Running'
    return appStatus

def appStatusInfo():
    appsString = AdminApp.list()
    appList = string.split(appsString, '\r\n')

    print '============================'
    print ' Status |    Application   '
    print '============================'

    # Print apps and their status
    for x in appList:
        print getAppStatus(x) + ' | ' + x

    print '============================'



appStatusInfo()

Sample output

============================
 Status |    Application
============================
Running | DefaultApplication
Running | IBMUTC
Stopped | some-ear
Running | another-ear
============================
