# Deploying and Configuring an Embedded Resource Adapter

A connector module can be deployed as a J2EE component in a J2EE application. Such connectors are only visible to components residing in the same J2EE application. Simply deploy this J2EE application as you would any other J2EE application.

You can create new connector connection pools and connector resources for a connector module embedded within a J2EE application by prefixing the connector name with app-name`#`. For example, if an application `appX.ear` has `jdbcra.rar` embedded within it, the connector connection pools and connector resources refer to the connector module as `appX#jdbcra`.

However, an embedded connector module cannot be undeployed using the name app-name`#`connector-name. To undeploy the connector module, you must undeploy the application in which it is embedded.

The association between the physical JNDI name for the connector module in the Application Server and the logical JNDI name used in the application component is specified in the Application Server specific XML descriptor `sun-ejb-jar.xml`. You can either hand code this association or use the deploytool to make this association. (For more information about using the deploytool, see deploytool.)
