Configure a JAX-WS client for WS-Transaction context

We can configure the way that a Java API for XML Web Services (JAX-WS) client handles Web Services Atomic Transaction (WS-AT) or Web Services Business Activity (WS-BA) context by configuring the Web Services Transaction (WS-Transaction) policy type. We can specify the client must send context, can send context if it is available, or must not send context.

A JAX-WS client must be installed.

We can configure a WS-Transaction policy set using the dmgr console, as described in this task, or we can configure a WS-Transaction policy set using wsadmin.sh.

To configure a JAX-WS client for WS-Transaction context using the dmgr console, complete the following steps.

1. Create a new policy set, or copy and rename an existing policy set. We can copy an existing user-defined policy set, or one of the WS-Transaction default policy sets (WSTransaction or SSL WSTransaction). See Create policy sets .
2. Check that your policy set includes the WS-Transaction policy type. If necessary, add the WS-Transaction policy type. See Add policies to policy sets .
3. Configure the WS-Transaction policy.
4. Associate the policy set with the JAX-WS client. See Manage policy sets and bindings for service clients.
5. Choose a WS-Policy application rule that includes the configured policy of the client, that is, client only or client and provider. See Configure the client policy to use a service provider policy.

6. Save your changes to the master configuration.

Results

The JAX-WS client is configured to use WS-Transaction context in the way that you specified.
