When a work manager has been configured, if it references a logical
work manager it must be bound to a physical work manager using an assembly
tool. Then resources can be created and bound to a physical work manager.
Before you begin
Your administrator needs to configure at least one work manager using
the administrative console.
About this task
If your application references one or more logical work managers,
the logical work managers must be bound to one or more physical work managers
using an assembly tool, such as Rational Web DeveloperRational Application Developer.
Procedure
- Declare a resource reference for each work manager (required action
by the application developer). This forms an EAR file. (For more information
on resource references, refer to the References. topic)
- Bind each resource reference to a physical work manager, using
an assembly tool, such as Rational Web DeveloperRational Application Developer.
- Add a resource reference with the type commonj.work.WorkManager
to the application deployment descriptor. The application can look
up this work manager using its resource reference name in java:comp. Now,
you can use an assembly tool or Rational Application Developer to specify
which resource references are bound to the physical commonj.work.WorkManager.
Attention: The previous steps outline the same process
used for data sources.
