To Deploy a Micro Focus Resource Adapter to a Java Application Server

Start your Java application server and its administration console, and navigate to where you add resource adapters.
The resource adapter must be deployed on a machine where a COBOL system such as Enterprise Server or Enterprise Developer is installed.
Specify the resource adapter to deploy. These can be one of the following:
- mfcobol-notx.rar - does not support transactions
- mfcobol-localtx.rar - supports local transactions
- mfcobol-xa.rar - supports XA transactions
Specific versions of these files are supplied for each supported application server and Java version. They are available in the application server subdirectories under %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Enterprise Developer\javaee (Windows) or under $COBDIR/javaee (UNIX) in your COBOL development system, as follows:
- javaee5/ibmwebsphere7
- javaee5/jboss5
- javaee5/oracleweblogic10
- javaee6/ibmwebsphere8
- javaee6/ibmwebsphere85
- javaee6/jboss6
- javaee6/oracleweblogic1211
Ensure that the support for the resource adapters and ensure it is on your path and classpath environment variables.

You might need to provide the application server with a deployment descriptor for the resource adapter. Deployment descriptors are supplied for the following application servers:

JBoss - mfcobol*ds.xml, which are supplied in the folder with the .rar files
WebLogic - weblogic-ra.xml, which is packaged in each .rar file
WebSphere - does not require deployment descriptors

Among other things, the deployment descriptors specify the following connection information, and you must not change this.

Note: The JNDI name and the reference name that you enter both depend upon your Java version.

	JNDI name	Reference name
Java EE 5	eis\MFCobol_v1.5	CCIMFCobol_v1.5
Java EE 6	eis\MFCobol_v1.5	CCIMFCobol_v1.5
