Configure database connectivity with your Oracle RAC installation by adding a JDBC GridLink data source to your WebLogic domain. Data sources and their connection pools provide connection management processes that help keep your system running efficiently.
To create a JDBC GridLink data source:
Name - Enter a
name for this JDBC GridLink data source. This name is used in the
configuration file (config.xml
) and throughout
the Administration Console whenever referring to this data
source.
JNDI Name - Enter the JNDI path to where this JDBC data source will be bound. Applications look up the data source on the JNDI tree by this name when reserving a connection.
XA Driver - Select if you want to use XA processing.
Click Next to continue.
Supports Global Transactions - Select this check box (the default) to enable global transaction support in this data source. Clear this check box to disable (ignore) global transactions in this data source. In most cases, you should leave the option selected.
If you selected Supports Global Transactions, select an option for transaction processing: (available options vary depending on whether you select an XA driver or a non-XA driver)
This option is only available when you select an XA JDBC driver to make database connections.
This option is only available when you select a non-XA JDBC driver to make database connections.
This option is only available when you select a non-XA JDBC driver to make database connections.
This option is only available when you select a non-XA JDBC driver to make database connections.
For more information about transaction options, see Configure Transaction Options for GridLink Data Sources.
Click Next to continue.
If you selected to enter the complete JDBC URL, enter the URL in Complete JDBC URL. Otherwise, provide the following:
Database User Name - Enter the database user account name that you want to use for each connection in the data source.
Password/Confirm Password - Enter the password for the database user account.
Click Next to continue.
WebLogic attempts to create a connection from the Administration Server to the database. Results from the connection test are displayed at the top of the page. If the test is unsuccessful, you should correct any configuration errors and retry the test.
If the JDBC driver you selected is not installed on the Administration Server, you should click Next to skip this step.
