You can create a JDBC connection pool in one of these ways:
In the Administration Console, open the Resources component, open the JDBC component, and select Connection Pools. For details, see the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 2005Q2 Update 2 Administration Guide.
Use the asadmin create-jdbc-connection-pool command. For details, see the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 2005Q2 Update 2 Reference Manual.
