The Relationship Between JMS Resources and Connector Resources

The Enterprise Server implements JMS by using a system resource adapter named jmsra. When a user creates JMS resources, the Enterprise Server automatically creates connector resources that appear under the Connectors node in the Admin Console’s tree view.

For each JMS connection factory that a user creates, the Enterprise Server creates a connector connection pool and connector resource. For each JMS destination a user creates, the Enterprise Server creates an admin object resource. When the user deletes the JMS resources, the Enterprise Server automatically deletes the connector resources.

It is possible to create connector resources for the JMS system resource adapter by using the Connectors node of the Admin Console instead of the JMS Resources node. See Chapter 7, Connector Resources for details.
