Setting the Shutdown Timeout

According to the Connector specification, while an application server shuts down, all resource adapters should be stopped. A resource adapter might hang during shutdown, since shutdown is typically a resource intensive operation. To avoid such a situation, you can set a timeout that aborts resource adapter shutdown if exceeded. The default timeout is 30 seconds per resource adapter module. To configure this timeout:

• In the Administration Console, select Connector Service under the relevant configuration and edit the shutdown Timeout field. For details, click the Help button in the Administration Console.

• Use the following asadmin set command:

  asadmin set server.connector-service.shutdown-timeout-in-seconds="num-secs"

  For details, see the Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Reference Manual.

The GlassFish Server deactivates all message-driven bean deployments before stopping a resource adapter.
