20.3.2 Setting the DB Connector for a member resource adapter
Use the following procedure to setup a DB Connector for a member resource adapter:
-
Import the DB Connector for the member resource adapter.
-
Define the properties.
-
Deploy the DB Connector for the member resource adapter.
-
Check the connectivity.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Importing the DB Connector for member resource adapter
Execute the following command to import the DB Connector for the member resource adapter:
(a) Execution format
cjimportres [server-name] [-nameserver provider-URL] -type rar -f file-path
Specify the RAR file in file-path.
The RAR file is stored in the following directory:
-
In Windows
Cosminexus-installation-directory\CC\DBConnector\ClusterPool\
-
In UNIX
/opt/Cosminexus/CC/DBConnector/ClusterPool/
The RAR files to be imported as member resource adapters are explained below:
- DBConnector_Oracle_CP_ClusterPool_Member.rar
-
The DBConnector_Oracle_CP_ClusterPool_Member.rar is a member resource adapter of the cluster connection pool. Use this RAR file when you use a local transaction or when you do not use a transaction (when LocalTransaction or NoTransaction is specified in the transaction support level). Connect to Oracle by using ConnectionPoolDataSource of Oracle JDBC Thin Driver.
You cannot set this RAR file in the resource references of the J2EE applications.
(b) Example of execution
cjimportres MyServer -type rar -f "c:\Program Files\Hitachi\Cosminexus\CC\DBConnector\ClusterPool\DBConnector_Oracle_CP_ClusterPool_Member.rar"
For details on the cjimportres command, see cjimportres (import resource) in the uCosminexus Application Server Command Reference Guide.
(2) Defining DB Connector properties for member resource adapter
You define the DB Connector properties for the member resource adapter. For details on the procedure for defining the properties, see 4.2.2 Defining the DB Connector properties in the manual uCosminexus Application Server Application Setup Guide. The DB Connector property settings for the member resource adapters will be explained here.
(a) General information regarding the DB Connector for member resource adapters
The following table describes the settings for general information attributes (<outbound-resourceadapter> tag) of the DB Connector that can be set:
Items |
Mandatory |
Corresponding tags |
---|---|---|
Transaction support level# |
Y |
<transaction-support> |
Scope of re-authentication support |
Y |
<reauthentication-support> |
For details on the property settings, see 4.1.1 Specifications of the HITACHI Connector Property file in the uCosminexus Application Server Application and Resource Definition Reference Guide.
(b) Configuration properties for member resource adapters
The configuration properties (<config-property> tag) and settings of DB Connector for member resource adapters are the same as that of the corresponding resource adapter (DBConnector_Oracle_CP.rar). For details on the configuration properties of the corresponding resource adapter, see 4.2.2 Defining the DB Connector properties in the manual uCosminexus Application Server Application Setup Guide.
(c) Runtime properties
The following table describes the settings for runtime properties (<outbound-resourceadapter> - <connection-definition> - <connector-runtime> tag) of the DB Connector for the member resource adapter:
Items |
Corresponding tags |
---|---|
Property name |
<property-name> |
Property data type |
<property-type> |
Property value |
<property-value> |
Repeat the above settings for all the properties that you want to define.
Setup the following items in the property name (<property-name>):
Property items |
Settings of property name (<property-name>) |
---|---|
User name# |
User |
Password# |
Password |
Minimum number of connections to be pooled in the connection pool |
MinPoolSize |
Maximum number of connections to be pooled in the connection pool |
MaxPoolSize |
Choose whether to output the log |
LogEnabled |
Period from the last usage of connection until you determine whether to cancel the connection automatically (connection sweeper) |
ConnectionTimeout |
Interval for canceling the connection automatically (connection sweeper) |
SweeperInterval |
Maximum waiting time when the connection acquisition requests (when the connections are used up) are managed in a queue |
RequestQueueTimeout |
Choose whether to enable alert output for monitoring the connection pool |
WatchEnabled |
Interval for monitoring the connection pool |
WatchInterval |
Threshold value for monitoring the usage state of the connection pool |
WatchThreshold |
Choose whether to output the file with the connection pool monitoring results |
WatchWriteFileEnabled |
Interval for operating the connection count adjustment function |
ConnectionPoolAdjustmentInterval |
Choose whether to enable the warming up function of the connection pool |
Warmup |
- Note:
-
The following items are always Enabled regardless of the scope of settings for the member resource adapters:
Property items
Valid values
Settings of property name (<property-name>)
Minimum number of connections to be pooled in connection pool
Connection pooling function is enabled. Default value 10 is assumed even if 0 is specified in MinPoolSize and MaxPoolSize.
MinPoolSize
Maximum number of connections to be pooled in connection pool
MaxPoolSize
Choose a method to check whether a failure has occurred in the connections inside the pool
Always 1 (Failure detected when the connection is acquired)
ValidationType
Choose whether to manage the connection acquisition requests in a queue when the connections are used up
Always true
RequestQueueEnable
Choose whether to enable the timeout of the network failure detection function
Always true
NetworkFailureTimeout
The retry function for acquiring connections is always disabled regardless of the settings for connection retry count (RetryCount) and connection retry waiting time (RetryInterval) of runtime properties.
(3) Deploying the DB Connector for member resource adapters
If you deploy the DB Connector for the member resource adapter, you can use it as a J2EE resource adapter. Note that you can define the properties after deploying the DB Connector. In such a case, however, define the properties when the root resource adapter to which the applicable DB Connector for the member resource adapter belongs and the DB Connector for the member resource adapter are not running. For the method of defining properties, see (2) Defining DB Connector properties for member resource adapter.
Execute the following command to deploy the DB Connector for the member resource adapter:
- Execution format
cjdeployrar [server-name] [-nameserver provider-URL] -resname display-name-of-DB-Connector-for-the-member-resource-adapter
- Example of execution
cjdeployrar MyServer -resname DB_Connector_for_Oracle_ClusterPool_Member
For details on the cjdeployrar command, see cjdeployrar (deploy resource adapter) in the uCosminexus Application Server Command Reference Guide.
(4) Testing the connectivity of the DB Connector for a member resource adapter
Use the connectivity test to verify whether the information set in the DB Connector for the member resource adapter is correct.
Execute the following command to perform connectivity testing of the DB Connector for the member resource adapter:
- Execution format
cjtestres [server-name] [-nameserver provider-URL] -type rar -resname Display-name-of-DB-Connector-for-the-member-resource-adapter
- Example of execution
cjtestres -type rar -resname DB_Connector_for_Oracle_ClusterPool_Member
For details on the cjtestres command, see cjtestres (execute resource connection test) in the uCosminexus Application Server Command Reference Guide.
- Note:
-
You cannot delete the DB Connector for the member resource adapter whose connection is once tested until you restart the J2EE server. To delete the DB Connector for the member resource adapter, stop the root resource adapter to which the applicable DB Connector for the member resource adapter belongs and the DB Connector for the member resource adapter, and then restart the J2EE server.
