6.6.42.1.1: Configuring J2C connection factories with the Java administrative console

A J2C connection factory is an object used to access application resources.

To create a J2C connection factory, click Console -> Wizards -> Create J2C Connection Factory from the console menu bar. This leads to the J2C Connection Factory task wizard.

You can also use:

  • Console -> New -> J2C Resource Adapter
  • Console -> New -> J2C Connection Factory

Using the J2C Connection Factory wizard

You use a J2C Connection Factory wizard to define a connection factory that gives access to application resources. Using the wizard sets basic properties pertaining to J2C connection factories. To set other property values for J2C connection factories, use the properties dialogs for J2C resources.

Naming the J2C connection factory

On the Specifying a Connection Factory panel, name and describe your connection factory session, and then click Next.

Selecting to use an existing J2C resource adapter or to create a new one

On the Specifying a J2C Resource Adapter panel, select to use an existing J2C resource adapter or to create a new J2C resource adapter.

A resource adapter represents a library that supports connections from an application to an enterprise information system (EIS) resource.

If you opt to use an existing adapter, select one from the drop-down list, and then click Next.

Creating a new J2C resource adapter

If you opt to create a new J2C resource adapter, the wizard shows the Creating a J2C Resource Adapter panel. Name and describe the resource adapter, and specify a full path name for the adapter archive. Then, click Next.

View J2C resources properties help

Completing the J2C connection factory

The final panel lists the J2C connection factory name and resource adapter name.

If you do not want to change the values specified, click Finish. The wizard will define a J2C connection factory with the values you specified, and display a message indicating where the factory resides on your system. If the wizard encounters an error, a message will display explaining why a factory could not be defined.

To change the values specified, click Back to return to the appropriate panel(s), make any needed changes, and then click Finish on this panel.
