" Please include driver-classname attribute. 3) Also, the above statement states only server restart. Whenever a resource's configuration is changed we expect the referring applications to be redeployed or re-enabled (disable and enable) or server restart [This is also applicable for section "connector-connection-pool" in page 38] 4) Table 1-79, attribute "validation-classname"'s description : Also add : "Some of the in-built validation classes for few databases are : org.glassfish.jdbc.validation.DerbyConnectionValidation, org.glassfish.jdbc.validation.MySQLConnectionValidation, org.glassfish.jdbc.validation.OracleConnectionValidation, org.glassfish.jdbc.validation.PostgresConnectionValidation. and org.glassfish.jdbc.validation.JDBC40ConnectionValidation for any JDBC 4.0 compliant driver." 5) Table 1-79, attribute "fail-all-connections" "This parameter is mandatory if and only if is-connection-validation-required is set to true." Above comment is not needed as default value of "fail-all-connections" is "false".

These references can be resource-ref, resource-env-ref, resource-adapter-mid, or equivalent annotations." can be re-phrased as "derived — Applications get access to resource-adapters based on the reference to resource-adapter artifacts in their deployment descriptors. These references can be via resource-ref, resource-env-ref, resource-adapter-mid, or equivalent annotations."
