Resource references

Use this page to designate how the resource references of application modules map to the actual resources that are configured for the application.

To view this administrative console page, click Applications > Enterprise Applications > application_name > Resource references.
New or updated for this feature pack Restriction: The Feature Pack for EJB 3.0 does not display resource references for EJB 3.0 modules on this page. To change the binding for resource references from an EJB 3.0 module, following these steps:
  • Click on the application link where the EJB 3.0 module resides.
  • Click on Managed Modules link.
  • Select the EJB 3.0 module.
  • Click on the Export File button.
  • Select META-INF/ibm-ejb-jar-bind.xml from the drop-down list.
  • Click on the Export button and follow the prompt to save the contents to a file. In some browsers, you may see the contents of the file displaying on the screen depending on how the selected file type is configured to be opened.

Once the binding file is exported, the file needs to be manually changed to provide the new bindings. Refer to the "EJB 3.0 application bindings overview" topic for more details.

After the manual change of the binding file is completed, the binding file has to be imported back to the application following these steps:
  • Select the application where the binding file is to be replaced.
  • Click on the Update button.
  • Select Replace or add a single file.
  • Provide the data required by a single file update as described in the "Ways to update application files" topic.
