Data source properties for application clients
Use this page to create or modify the data sources.
To view this Application Client Resource Configuration Tool (ACRCT) page, click File > Open. After you browse for an EAR file, click Open. Expand the selected JAR file > Data Source Providers > Data source provider instance. Right-click Data Sources and click New. The following fields are displayed on the General tab:
- Name
Display name of this data source.
Data type String - Description
Specifies a text description of the data source.
Data type String - JNDI Name
The application client run time uses this field to retrieve configuration information.
- Database Name
The name of the database to which you want to connect.
- User
Use the user ID with the Password property, for authentication if the calling application does not provide a user ID and password explicitly.
If you specify a value for the User ID property, then also specify a value for the Password property. The connection factory User ID and Password properties are used if the calling application does not provide a user ID and password explicitly.
- Password
Use the password with the User ID property, for authentication if the calling application does not provide a user ID and password explicitly.
If you specify a value for the Password property, then also specify a value for the User ID property.
- Re-Enter Password
Confirms the password.
- Custom Properties
Specifies name-value pairs for setting additional properties on the object that is created at run time for this resource.
You must enter a name that is a public property on the object and a value that can be converted from a string to the type required by the set method of the property. The acceptable properties and values depend on the object that is created. Refer to the object documentation for a list of valid properties and values.
