Set new J2C connection factories using scripting

Use scripting and wsadmin to configure new J2C connection factories.

Before starting this task, wsadmin must be running. See the Start wsadmin article for more information.

Perform the following steps to configure a new J2C connection factory:

 

1. Identify the parent ID and assign it to the newra variable.
   • Jacl...

     set newra [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/J2CResourceAdapter:RAR1/]

   • Jython...

     newra = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/J2CResourceAdapter:RAR1/') print newra

   For example...

   RAR1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#J2CResourceAdapter_1)

2. There are two ways to configure a new J2C connection factory. Perform one of the following:

   • Use AdminTask:

     1. List the connection factory interfaces:
        • Jacl...

          $AdminTask listConnectionFactoryInterfaces $newra

        • Jython...

          AdminTask.listConnectionFactoryInterfaces(newra)

        For example...

        javax.sql.DataSource

     2. Create a J2CConnectionFactory:
        • Jacl...

          $AdminTask createJ2CConnectionFactory $newra { -name cf1 -jndiName eis/cf1 -connectionFactoryInterface avax.sql.DataSource

        • Jython...

          AdminTask.createJ2CConnectionFactory(newra, '['-name', 'cf1', '-jndiName', 'eis/cf1', '-connectionFactoryInterface', 'avax.sql.DataSource']')

   • Use the AdminConfig object:

     1. Identify the required attributes:
        • Jacl...

          $AdminConfig required J2CConnectionFactory

        • Jython...

          print AdminConfig.required('J2CConnectionFactory')

        For example...

        Attribute Type connectionDefinition ConnectionDefinition@

     2. If the resource adapter is JCA1.5 and we have multiple connection definitions defined, it is required that specify the ConnectionDefinition attribute. If the resource adapter is JCA1.5 and we have only one connection definition defined, it will be picked up automatically. If the resource adapter is JCA1.0, you do not need to specify the ConnectionDefinition attribute. Perform the following command to list the connection definitions defined by the resource adapter:
        • Jacl...

          $AdminConfig list ConnectionDefinition $newra

        • Jython...

          print AdminConfig.list('ConnectionDefinition', $newra)

     3. Set up the required attributes:
        • Jacl...

          set name [list name J2CCF1] set jname [list jndiName eis/j2ccf1] set j2ccfAttrs [list $name]

        • Jython...

          name = ['name', 'J2CCF1'] jname = ['jndiName', 'eis/j2ccf1'] j2ccfAttrs = [name,jname]

     4. If specifying the ConnectionDefinition attribute, also set up the following:
        • Jacl...

          set cdattr [list connectionDefinition $cd]

        • Jython...

          cdattr = ['connectionDefinition', $cd]

     5. Create a J2C connection factory:
        • Jacl...

          $AdminConfig create J2CConnectionFactory $newra $j2ccfAttrs

        • Jython...

          print AdminConfig.create('J2CConnectionFactory', newra, j2ccfAttrs)

        For example...

        J2CCF1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#J2CConnectionFactory_1)

3. Save the configuration changes. See the Saving configuration changes with wsadmin article for more information.

4. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node. See the Synchronizing nodes with wsadmin article for more information.
