WAS 8.5 profile creation sample response file

I looked over the net for sample response files for profile creation in WAS 8.5, but I found none. Well, I didn't expect much of a revolution in comparison to V7 or V8, but still, better be safe than sorry :) 


So I ended up converting possible listed manageprofiles flags into response file entries, in a traditional manner. The result was as follows and you can safely use it as a starting point for your profile management automation.



#profile name and capabilities
profileName=P01Dev
profilePath=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer85/profiles/P01Dev
templatePath=/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer85/profileTemplates/default
#location and names
hostName=chronos.warszawa.pl.ibm.com
nodeName=P01DevNode
cellName=P01DevCell
serverName=P01DevS01
#starting port
startingPort=4000
#certificates
personalCertDN=cn=P01DevS01\\,ou=Root=Certificate\\,ou=P01DevNode\\,ou=P01DevCell\\,o=IBM\\,c=PL
signingCertDN=cn=P01DevRoot\\,ou=Root=Certificate\\,ou=P01DevNode\\,ou=P01DevCell\\,o=IBM\\,c=PL
#standard WAS keystore/truststore password
keyStorePassword=WebAS
#admin security
enableAdminSecurity=true
adminUserName=devadmin
adminPassword=<yourpassword>
