Registering a WebSphere windows services
Registering a WebSphere windows services are very similar to adding a linux service.
From a cmd prompt:
Change directory to %WAS_HOME%/bin
– in this example it is D:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\bin
The syntax of the command is wasservice –add <service name> -serverName <name of server> -profilePath <path to server profile>
To enable the server to restart automatically and to encode the user name and password additional parameters are required
wasservice -add Dmgr -serverName dmgr -profilePath D:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\Dmgr01 -encodeParams -restart true -startType automatic -stopArgs "-username wasadmin -password
password"
wasservice -add Node -serverName nodeagent -profilePath D:\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01 -encodeParams -restart true -startType automatic -stopArgs '-username wasadmin -password password -stopservers'
Once the wasservice command has been run successfully the new services will be visible within the services view:
