Deploying Resource Adapters Using the Administration Console

To deploy a resource adapter using the WebLogic Server Administration Console:

1. Start WebLogic Server.

2. Open the Administration Console.

3. Open the Domain you will be working in.

4. Under Deployments, select Connectors in the left panel. The Connector Deployments table displays in the right pane showing all the deployed Connectors (Resource Adapters).

5. Select Configure a new Connector Component...

6. Enter the following information:

   - Name—modify the default name of the connector component as needed.

   - URI Path—enter the full path of the resource adapter .rar file or a directory containing the resource adapter exploded directory format. For example: c:\myaps\components\myResourceAdapter.rar

   - Deployed—indicate whether the Resource Adapter .rar file should be deployed when created.

7. Select the Create button.

   Note that the new resource adapter now appears in the Deployments table in the right pane.

Viewing Deployed Resource Adapters Using the Administration Console

To view a deployed resource adapter in the Administration Console:

1. In the Administration Console under Deployments, select Connectors (Resource Adapters) in the left panel.

2. View a list of deployed Connectors in the Connector Deployments table in the right pane.

Undeploying Deployed Resource Adapters Using the Administration Console

To undeploy a deployed resource adapter from the WebLogic Server Administration Console:

1. In the Administration Console under Deployments, select Connectors (Resource Adapters) in the left panel.

2. In the Connector Deployments table, select the connector to undeploy.

3. Under the Configuration tab, de-select the Deployed checkbox.

4. Click Apply.

Undeploying a resource adapter does not remove the resource adapter name from WebLogic Server. The resource adapter remains undeployed for the duration of the Server session, as long as you do not change it once it has been undeployed. You cannot re-use the deployment name with the deploy argument until you reboot the server. You can re-use the deployment name to update the deployment, as described in the following section.

Updating Deployed Resource Adapters Using the Administration Console

When you update the contents of the resource adapter .rar file or deployment directory that has been deployed to WebLogic Server, those updates are not reflected in WebLogic Server until:

- You reboot the server (if the .rar or directory is to be automatically deployed)

  or

- You update the resource adapter deployment using the WebLogic Server Administration Console

From the WebLogic Server Administration Console:

1. In the Administration Console under Deployments, select Connectors (Resource Adapters) in the left panel.

2. In the Connector Deployments table, select the connector to update.

3. Update the Connector Name and Deployed status as needed.

4. Click Apply.
