Map default data sources for modules containing 1.x entity beans

Use this page to set the default data source mapping for EJB modules containing 1.x container-managed persistence (CMP) beans. Unless you configure individual data sources for the 1.x CMP beans, this default mapping applies to all beans within the module. To view this console page, click Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications > application_name > Map default data sources for modules containing 1.x entity beans.

Guidelines for using this console page:

• The page displays a table that depicts the EJB modules in the application containing 1.x CMP beans.

• Each table row corresponds to a module. A row shows the JNDI name of the data source mapping target of the EJB module only if you bound them together during application assembly. For every data source that is displayed, you see the corresponding security configuration.

• To set the default data source mappings:

  1. Select a row. Be aware that if you check multiple rows on this page, the data source mapping target selected in step 2 applies to all of those EJB modules.

  2. Click Browse to select a data source from the new page that is displayed, the Available Resources page. The Available Resources page shows all data sources that are available mapping targets for your EJB modules.

  3. Click Apply. The console displays the 1.x entity bean data sources page again. In the rows that you previously selected, you now see the JNDI name of the new resource mapping target.

  4. Before you click OK to save the new configuration, set the security parameters for the data source. Use the following steps.

• To specify security settings for the default data source:

  1. Select a row. Be aware that if you check multiple rows on this page, the security settings selected later apply to all of those data sources.

  2. Type in a user name and password that comprise the authentication alias for signing on to the data source. If these entries are not listed in the application Java EE Connector (J2C) authentication data list, you must input them into the list after saving the settings on this page. Read the information center topic on managing Java EE Connector Architecture authentication data entries for more information.

  3. Click Apply that immediately follows the user name and password input fields.

• Repeat all of the previous steps as necessary.

• Click OK to save the work.

If any value is modified on this page, all of the metadata files related to the application are refreshed in the configuration repository.
