Custom property settings
Use this page to specify the attributes of custom properties that might be required for resource providers and resource factories.
According to the resource type with which a property collection is associated, your ability to modify individual property settings varies. Therefore, consider the following descriptions as a general reference for custom property settings. (The console page that you are using to configure your custom property may only allow you to modify a subset of the following settings.) Deprecations: The following list displays three custom properties that are deprecated in WebSphere Application Server V6.10. WAS now offers these properties as pre-configured options, which are the replacement properties in the following list.
- dbFailOverEnabled -- replaced by Pretest new connection
- validateNewConnection -- replaced by Number of retries
- connRetriesDuringDBFailover -- replaced by Retry interval
Set the replacement properties on the WAS data source properties console page. Click Data sources > my_data_source > WebSphere Application Server data source properties.
