Configuring the Transaction Service

You can configure the transaction service in the Enterprise Server in the following ways:

• To configure the transaction service using the Administration Console, open the Transaction Service component under the relevant configuration. For details, click the Help button in the Administration Console.

• To configure the transaction service, use the asadmin set command to set the following attributes.

  server-config.transaction-service.automatic-recovery = false
  server-config.transaction-service.heuristic-decision = rollback
  server-config.transaction-service.keypoint-interval = 2048
  server-config.transaction-service.retry-timeout-in-seconds = 600
  server-config.transaction-service.timeout-in-seconds = 0
  server-config.transaction-service.tx-log-dir = domain-dir/logs

  You can also set these properties:

  server-config.transaction-service.property.oracle-xa-recovery-workaround = false
  server-config.transaction-service.property.disable-distributed-transaction-logging = false
  server-config.transaction-service.property.xaresource-txn-timeout = 600
  server-config.transaction-service.property.pending-txn-cleanup-interval = 60
  server-config.transaction-service.property.use-last-agent-optimization = true
  server-config.transaction-service.property.db-logging-resource = jdbc/TxnDS
  server-config.transaction-service.property.xa-servername = myserver

  You can use the asadmin get command to list all the transaction service attributes and properties. For details, see the Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v3 Reference Manual.

Changing keypoint-interval, retry-timeout-in-seconds, or timeout-in-seconds does not require a server restart. Changing other attributes or properties requires a server restart.
