Use this page to view and modify the default data source mapping
for EJB modules that contain 2.x entity beans. Unless you configure individual
data sources for your entity beans, this default mapping applies to all beans
within the module.
To view this administrative console page, click Applications > Enterprise
Applications > application_name > Provide default data source
mapping for modules containing 2.x entity beans.
Guidelines for using this administrative console page:
- The page contains several sets of steps that are followed by a table.
The table depicts the EJB modules in your application that contain 2.x entity
beans.
- Each table row corresponds to a module and shows the data source mapping
target of the module. It also shows the security configuration of the data
source, if applicable.
- Select one or more rows in the table and follow the steps to apply new
default mapping targets and data source security settings to your EJB 2.x
modules. Each set of steps directs you to modify a different configuration
property:
To modify a default data source mapping, select the Java Naming
and Directory Interface (JNDI) name of an existing data source from the provided
list. Click Apply.
To modify the authorization type of a data
source, select rows to edit and choose either Container or Application from
the displayed list. Container-managed authorization indicates that WebSphere
Application Server performs signon to the data source. Application-managed
authorization indicates that the enterprise bean code performs signon. Click Apply.
To
modify the authorization method of a data source with container-managed authorization,
you have three options: None, Default, or Custom login configuration. The
reconfiguring process differs slightly for each option:
- If you select None:
- Determine which data source configurations to designate with no authentication
method.
- Select the appropriate table rows.
- Select None from the list of authentication method options that
precede the table.
- Click Apply.
- If you select Default:
- Determine which data source configurations to designate with the WebSphere
Application Server DefaultPrincipalMapping login configuration. You must apply
this option to each data source individually if you want to designate different
authentication data aliases. See the "J2EE Connector security" information
center topic for more information on the default mapping configuration.
- Select the appropriate table rows.
- Select Use default method from the list of authentication method
options that precede the table.
- Select an authentication data entry or alias from the list.
- Click Apply.
- If you select Custom login configuration:
- Determine which data source configurations to designate with a custom
Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) login configuration.
See the "J2EE Connector security" information center topic for
more information on custom JAAS login configurations.
- Select the appropriate table row.
- Select Use custom login configuration from the list of authentication
method options that precede the table.
- Select an application login configuration from the list.
- Click Apply.
- To edit the properties of the custom login configuration, click Mapping
Properties in the table cell.
