Map resource environment references to resources

Map resource environment references to resources

Use this page to designate how the resource environment references of application modules map to remote resources, which are represented in WebSphere Application Server as resource environment entries.

To view this administrative console page, click Applications > Enterprise Applications > application_name > Map resource environment references to resources .

Guidelines for using this administrative console page:

Each row of the table depicts a resource environment reference within a specific module of your application. If you bound any references to resource environment entries during application assembly, you see the JNDI names of those resource environment entries in the applicable rows. To set the mapping relationships between your resource environment references and resource environment entries:

  1. Select a row. Be aware that if you check multiple rows on this page, the resource mapping target that you select in step 2 applies to all of those references.

  2. Click Browse to select a resource environment entry from the new page that is displayed, the Available Resources page. The Available Resources page shows all resource environment entries that are available mapping targets for your application references.

  1. Click Apply . The console displays the Map resource environment references to resources page again. In the rows that you previously selected, you now see the JNDI name of the new resource mapping target.

  2. Repeat the previous steps as necessary.

  3. Click OK . You now return to the general configuration page for your enterprise application.

URI

When resolved relative to the application Uniform Resource Locator (URL), the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) specifies the location of the module archive contents on a file system.

Reference binding

The name of a resource environment reference that is declared in the deployment descriptor of the application module. The reference corresponds to a resource that is bound as a resource environment entry into the JNDI name space of the application server.

JNDI name

The Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) name of the resource environment entry that is the mapping target of the resource environment reference.
