Foreign Servers: Configuration: General
Configuration Options Related Tasks Related Topics
A foreign server represents a JNDI provider that resides outside a WebLogic Server. It contains information that allows WebLogic Server to reach the remote JNDI provider. This way, a number of connection factory and destination objects (queues or topics) can be defined on one JNDI directory. Use this page to configure a foreign server.
Configuration Options
Name Description Name The name of this foreign server.
MBean Attribute:
WebLogicMBean.NameChanges take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.
JNDI Initial Context Factory The name of the class that must be instantiated to access the JNDI provider. This class name depends on the JNDI provider and the vendor that are being used.
This value corresponds to the standard JNDI property,
java.naming.factory.initial.Note: This value defaults to
weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory, which is the correct value for WebLogic Server.MBean Attribute (Does not apply to application modules) :
ForeignServerBean.InitialContextFactoryJNDI Connection URL The URL that WebLogic Server will use to contact the JNDI provider. The syntax of this URL depends on which JNDI provider is being used. For WebLogic JMS, leave this field blank if you are referencing WebLogic JMS objects within the same cluster.
This value corresponds to the standard JNDI property,
java.naming.provider.url.Note: If this value is not specified, look-ups will be performed on the JNDI server within the WebLogic Server instance where this connection factory is deployed.
MBean Attribute (Does not apply to application modules) :
ForeignServerBean.ConnectionURLChanges take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.
JNDI Properties Any additional properties that must be set for the JNDI provider. These properties will be passed directly to the constructor for the JNDI provider's InitialContext class.
Some foreign providers require other properties to be set while obtaining an initial naming context. These properties can be set with a property bean
MBean Attribute (Does not apply to application modules) :
ForeignServerBean.JNDIPropertiesChanges take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.
Default Targeting Enabled Specifies whether this JMS resource defaults to the parent module's targeting or uses the subdeployment targeting mechanism.
When set to true, this resource implicitly inherits the targeting of its parent module. When set to false, this resource gets targeted based its subdeployment's targets, if one is specified.
MBean Attribute (Does not apply to application modules) :
ForeignServerBean.DefaultTargetingEnabledChanges take effect after you redeploy the module or restart the server.
JNDI Properties Credential Any Credentials that must be set for the JNDI provider. These Credentials will be part of the properties will be passed directly to the constructor for the JNDI provider's InitialContext class. Note: For secure credential management, use the Credential field. Using the Properties field results in the credential being stored and displayed as originally entered
Some foreign providers require other properties to be set while obtaining an initial naming context. These properties can be set with a property bean
