Administering a WebSphere Adapter using the administrative console

When you have installed an application with an embedded WebSphere Adapter, you can use the administrative console to administer the adapter. For example, if you want to change the path settings for the RAR file, resource adapter classes, or libraries for the resource adapter.

Before you begin

In order to perform this task, you must have security permission to change settings in the administrative console.

Why and when to perform this task

You might want to change the configuration properties of a WebSphere Adapter for a number of reasons; for example, if you have made changes to the application using the adapter or have deployed an update that uses different adapter classes or libraries.

Note: The WebSphere Relational Resource Adapter is installed and runs as part of WebSphere Application Server, and needs no further administration. The SIB JMS Resource Adapter is used for the default messaging provider, and has some properties that you can change.

To administer an adapter, use the administrative console to complete the following steps:

Steps for this task

  1. Open the resource adapter console for the adapter you wish to administer.

    On the administrative console:

    1. In the navigation pane, click Resources > Resource Adapters This displays a list of the resource adapters installed.
    2. Click the name of the WebSphere Adapter that you want to administer. This displays the detail settings page for the adapter.
  2. Alter desired properties under the General Properties or Additional Properties headings.
  3. When you have finished making changes click OK.
  4. Save your changes to the master configuration.

What to do next

If your changes do not have the expected effect, restart the server so that it recovers the latest changes to the master configuration.
