Update data source and data source provider configurations with the Application Client Resource Configuration Tool

We can update the configuration of an existing data source or data source provider using the Application Client Resource Configuration Tool (ACRCT).

During this task, you update the configuration of an existing data source or data source provider. Perform this task when the database configuration changes.

1. Start the Application Client Resource Configuration Tool (ACRCT), and open the EAR file containing the data source or data source provider. The EAR file contents display in a tree view.

2. Select Java Archive (JAR) file from the navigation tree containing the data source or data source provider to update.

3. Expand the JAR file to view its contents until you locate the particular data source or data source provider to update. Take one of the following actions:

   • Right-click the data source object and click Properties.

   • Click Edit > Properties on the menu bar.

4. Update the properties in the displayed fields. For detailed field help, refer to the Data source provider properties topic.

5. Click OK when you finish.

6. Click File > Save on the menu bar to save the changes.
