JCA lifecycle management
Use this page to perform JCA lifecycle management operations on data source and connection factory MBeans. With these management operations, you can control the runtime status of the corresponding data source and connection factory resources. You can view this console page in different locations, depending on whether you want to manage data sources or J2C connection factories. For example:
- For connection factories: Click Resources > Resource adapters > J2C connection factories. Select the connection factory configurations that you want to manage, and click Manage state.
- For data sources: Click Resources > JDBC > Data sources. Select the data source configurations to manage, and click Manage state.
Guidelines for using this console page:
- The table displays a list of MBeans that correspond to the data sources or connection factories in your selection from the previous console page. These MBeans are compatible with V6.0.2 or later of the appserver.
- You can only perform JCA lifecycle management actions on MBeans that are in the active state. In this context, an MBean is considered active when an application performs a Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) name space lookup on the corresponding data source or connection factory resource.
- Pausing an MBean halts outbound communication to the backend, such as a database. This action affects all applications that use the resource on the selected server.
Table column heading descriptions:
- Name (JNDI name)
The name of the connection factory or data source configuration, followed by the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) name in parenthesis.
- Running object scope
The server that is running the connection factory or data source MBean.
- Status
The state of the connection factory or data source MBean. Possible values:
State Indications ACTIVE
- The resource that corresponds with the MBean is ready to provide an application with connections to a backend.
- An application performed a JNDI namespace lookup on this resource.
You can apply the JCA lifecycle management operation of PAUSE to an MBean in this state.
PAUSED
- All outbound communication to the backend through the corresponding resource is stopped, as a result of a JCA lifecycle management operation that was applied previously to the MBean.
- An application performed a JNDI namespace lookup on the resource.
You can apply the JCA lifecycle management operation of RESUME to an MBean in this state.
NOT_ACCESSED
- The MBean exists on the specified server, but no applications performed a JNDI name space lookup on the corresponding connection factory or data source.
You cannot apply JCA lifecycle management operations to an MBean in this state.
