Configuring WebSphere grid endpoints

This topic explains how to set up a WebSphere® grid endpoint.

Procedure

  1. Install a batch application on a server or cluster using the administrative console.
  2. If the application is the first batch application installed on the server or cluster, restart the server or cluster.

Results

The WebSphere grid endpoints are automatically set up. By installing the application on the deployment target, the common batch container is automatically deployed on the server or cluster selected using the default Apache Derby data source jdbc/pgc. The default file-based Derby data source can be used only when using the batch function on a stand-alone application server. If you have a WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment environment, you must use a network database.
If you use the default Derby data source, no further action is required. If you use a different data source, complete the following steps to make the data source available to the WebSphere grid endpoints.
  1. From the administrative console, go to Environment > WebSphere Variables.
  2. Select Cell scope from the list.
  3. Edit the GRID_ENDPOINT_DATASOURCE variable to point to the JNDI lookup name of the job scheduler data source.
  4. Save your configuration.
  5. Restart all endpoints.
