Before You Begin
Before creating the pool, deploy the connector module (resource adapter) associated with the pool. The values that are specified for the new pool depend on the connector module that is deployed.
The Connector Connection Pools page opens.
The New Connector Connection Pool (Step 1 of 2) page opens.
Specify this name when creating a connector resource.
The choices in the list depend on the resource adapter you selected. The connection definition identifies a resource adapter's connection-definition element in thera.xml file.
The New Connector Connection Pool (Step 2 of 2) page opens.
This option is disabled by default.
The default value is 8.
The default value is 32.
The default value is 2.
The default value is 300.
The default value is 60000.
If the Required checkbox is selected, connections are validated before being given to the application. If a resource's validation fails, it is destroyed, and a new resource is created and returned. This option is disabled by default.
If you do not select the checkbox, individual connections will be reestablished only when they are used. This option is disabled by default.
The chosen transaction support overrides the transaction support attribute in the resource adapter associated with this connection pool in a downward compatible way. In other words, it can support a lower transaction level than that specified in the resource adapter, or the same transaction level as that specified in resource adapter, but it cannot specify a higher level.
The following options are available in the drop-down list:
Local transactions are managed internal to a resource manager and involve no external transaction managers.
XA transactions are controlled and coordinated by a transaction manager external to a resource manager.
Available properties depend upon the resource adapter for the connector connection pool.
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.
If you specify a name but not a value for a property, it is removed from the table when you finish creating the connection pool. If you do not want to set a value for a property now, but you want the property to remain in the table so that the value can be set later, type a set of empty parentheses in the Value field:
