Summary: Manages Work Classes inside IBM WebSphere Virtual Enterprise.
Required Data: This action is executed at the cell or node scope and uses configuration data in the workClass section of the workClasses.xml file at the cell or node scope.[1][2][3]
Augment mode uses the configuration data in the augment/workClasses.xml file.[1][2][3][4]
The configuration data for Work Class is stored in the workClasses.xml file. For example configuration data, see the workClass section in the samples: RAFW_HOME/samples/xml/wve/61/workClasses.xml
[4] When the mode is execute: The default work classes for systemApps is modified to match what is contained in the workClasses.xml file. All other WorkClasses are deleted and re-created based on what is specified in the workClasses.xml file.
[5] If the mode is augment: If a WorkClass entry is found with the same 'name' it is not updated, only WorkClass entries which are not found by 'name' in the existing configuration are added.
[6] The augment mode directory defaults to "augment". To override the augment mode directory supply: -opt augmentDir=<dir>
[7] To promote entries in an augment file, specify the option -opt augmentDir=<dir> and the rules_augment.xml in <dir> will be used during promotion.
