To Create a JDBC Resource
A Java DataBase Connectivity (JDBC) resource (data source) provides applications with the means of connecting to a database.
Before You Begin
To create a JDBC resource, you must first create a JDBC connection pool. See To Create a JDBC Connection Pool.
-
In the navigation tree, expand the Resources node.
-
Under the Resources node, expand the JDBC node.
-
Under the JDBC node, select the JDBC Resources node.
The JDBC Resources page opens.
-
On the JDBC Resources page, click New.
The New JDBC Resource page opens.
-
In the JNDI Name field, type a unique resource name.
The JNDI name organizes and locates components within a distributed computing environment similarly to the way that card catalogs organize and represent locations of books in a library. Consequently, the JNDI name becomes an important method of accessing the JDBC resource. By convention, the name begins with the jdbc/
string, for example, jdbc/payrolldb
. Don't forget the forward slash.
The name must contain only alphanumeric, underscore, dash, or dot characters.
-
From the Pool Name drop-down list, select a connection pool to be associated with the new JDBC resource.
-
In the Description field, type a short description of the new JDBC resource.
-
Select the Status Enabled checkbox to make the resource available at runtime.
This option is enabled by default.
-
In the Additional Properties section, specify additional properties.
GlassFish Server does not define any additional properties for JDBC resources.
To add a property, click the Add Property button. In the blank row that appears, type the property name in the Name field, and type the property value in the Value field.
-
Select an Available Target to Add it or remove it from the Selected Targets list.
-
Click OK.
