<h4><a name="appsvrradpt"></a>Administer resource adapters</h4>
<p>A resource adapter (RAR) represents an archive file. This file contains code that implements a library and connects to an Enterprise Information System (EIS) backend database. Typically, a single resource adapter can only connect to one type of enterprise information system (EIS) but it can support many different configurations for connections to that EIS. The resource adapter has many configuration properties that are defined in the J2C specification and set by the vendor who supplies the code.</p>
<p>For help with resource adapter settings, see these topics:</p>

<p><strong><a name="install"></a>Install Java 2 Connector RAR files</strong></p>
<p>You can use the administrative console to install a J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA) connector and create a resource adapter for it.</p>
<p>To install a Java 2 Connector RAR file, follow these steps:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="acstart.htm">Start the administrative console</a>.</li>
<li>In the topology tree, expand <strong>Resources</strong> and click <strong>Resource Adapters</strong>.</li>
<li>On the <strong>Resource Adapters</strong> page, click <strong>Install RAR</strong>.
<p><strong>Note:</strong> When you install a RAR file with the administative console, the scope that you specify on the <strong>Resource Adapters</strong> page does not affect where the RAR file is installed. You can install RAR files only at the node level, and the node the file is installed on is determined by the scope on the <strong>Install RAR</strong> page. The scope you set on the <strong>Resource Adapters</strong> page determines the scope of the new resource adapters, which you can create at the server, node, or cell level.</p></li>
<li>Specify the RAR file that you want to install, or click <strong>Browse...</strong> to select the file.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Next</strong>.</li>
<li>Specify the resource adapter name. You can also specify additional properties on this page.</li>
<li>Click <strong>OK</strong>.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><a name="create"></a>Create resource adapters</strong></p>
<p>If a JCA connector is already installed on your system, and you want to create a new resource adapter for the connector, follow these steps:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="acstart.htm">Start the administrative console</a>.</li>
<li>In the topology tree, expand <strong>Resources</strong> and click <strong>Resource Adapters</strong>.</li>
<li>On the <strong>Resource Adapters</strong> page, click <strong>New</strong>.</li>
<li>Specify a name and archive path. You can also specify additional properties on this page.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Apply</strong>.</li>
<li>After you create the resource adapter, you can configure J2C connection factories for it.</li>
<li><a href="acsave.htm">Save the configuration</a>.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><a name="modify"></a>Modify resource adapters</strong></p>
<p>To modify a resource adapter, follow these steps:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="acstart.htm">Start the administrative console</a>.</li>
<li>In the topology tree, expand <strong>Resources</strong> and click <strong>Resource Adapters</strong>.</li>
<li>On the <strong>Resource Adapters</strong> page, select the name of the resource adapter that you want to modify.</li>
<li>Make your changes.</li>
<li>Click <strong>OK</strong>.</li>
<li><a href="acsave.htm">Save the configuration</a>.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong><a name="remove"></a>Remove resource adapters</strong></p>
<p>To remove a resource adapter, follow these steps:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="acstart.htm">Start the administrative console</a>.</li>
<li>In the topology tree, expand <strong>Resources</strong> and click <strong>Resource Adapters</strong>.</li>
<li>On the <strong>Resource Adapters</strong> page, select the checkbox for the name of the resource adapter that you want to remove.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Delete</strong>.</li>
<li><a href="acsave.htm">Save the configuration</a>.</li>
