Configuring JCA Services

JCA has a number of supporting services that can be configured.

• Work Manager - the work manager (JCA 1.5)

• RAR Deployer - the deployer for .rar packages

• ConnectionFactory Deployer - the deployer for -ds.xml files defining ConnectionFactory deployments

• Cached ConnectionManager - the service for keeping track of which application have what connections open

Deploying a RAR

The packaging of a .rar is defined in the J2EE Connector API specification.

To deploy a .rar file simply place it in the deploy{-hasingleton} or farm directory.
