Configure connection factory transaction parameters


After you configure a connection factory, you can define a transaction time-out value, and also indicate whether an XA queue or XA topic connection factory is returned, which create sessions that are JTA user-transaction aware.

To configure transactions on a connection factory:

  1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
  2. In the Administration Console, navigate to the connection factory resource that you want to configure:
  3. Click the Configuration > Transactions tab.
  4. On the Transactions page:
    1. In Transaction Timeout, specify a timeout value, in seconds, for all transactions on transacted sessions created with this JMS connection factory. This setting has no effect on the transaction-timeout for JTA user transactions.
    2. In XA Connection Factory Enabled, select whether an XA queue or XA topic connection factory is returned, instead of a standard queue or topic connection factory. An XA factory is required for JMS applications to use JTA user-transactions, but is not required for transacted sessions.

    For more information about these fields, see Configuration Options.

  5. Save your changes:
  6. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
    Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
