## Connector Configuration

The Application Server does not need to use `sun-ra.xml`, which previous Application Server versions used, to store server-specific deployment information inside a Resource Adapter Archive (RAR) file. (However, the `sun-ra.xml` file is still supported for backward compatibility.) Instead, the information is stored in the server configuration. As a result, you can create multiple connector connection pools for a connection definition in a functional resource adapter instance, and you can create multiple user-accessible connector resources (that is, registering a resource with a JNDI name) for a connector connection pool. In addition, dynamic changes can be made to connector connection pools and the connector resource properties without restarting the Application Server.
