Why and when to perform this task
When you define schedulers in the server configuration, the object instance is bound into the global name space under the configured Java Naming Directory Interface (JNDI) name. You can use a resource reference to avoid manually coding this JNDI name into your application. Using a resource reference allows administrators to map applications to the appropriate schedulers.
You can alternatively create a scheduler resource reference by editing the XML directly. A Scheduler resource reference is a Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition (J2EE) compliant resource that uses the class com.ibm.websphere.scheduler.Scheduler as the object type. For information regarding the XML file format, see the J2EE Specification.
