To Deploy to JBoss

Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.

This topic describes how to deploy an application developed using the Interface Mapping Toolkit to JBoss Application Server.

Installing JBoss Application Server

You can download JBoss Application Server from the JBoss official website, and install it from there.

To open JBoss Application Server:

  • Enter the URL http://localhost:8080 in your Web browser, where 8080 is the default port.

Administering JBoss Application Server

JBoss Application Server provides a Web interface for administering the application server. This administration interface is called the JBoss administration console. To start the console:

  • Enter http://localhost:9990/console/App.html in your Web browser. Port 9990 is predefined as the Management Console socket binding.

Starting and Stopping JBoss Application Server

You can start and stop JBoss Application Server from the JBoss console or from the command line, as follows.

JBoss EAP 7.1

For Windows environments :

  • Run jboss_home\bin\standalone.bat to start it.
  • Run jboss_home\bin\jboss-cli --connect command=:shutdown to stop it.

For UNIX environments :

  • Run jboss_home/bin/standalone.bat to start it.
  • Run jboss_home/bin/jboss-cli --connect command="shutdown to stop it.

Deploying the Resource Adapter

JBoss EAP 7.1
To deploy a resource adapter for JBoss EAP 7.1, update the standalone.xml file, located in your JBoss installation's standalone\configuration (Windows) or standalone/configuration (UNIX) directory, as follows:
Disable the jca subsystem
Edit the <archive-validation> child of the <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:jca:5.0"> element to read as follows: 
<archive-validation enabled="false" fail-on-error="true" fail-on-warn="false"/>
Add the mfcobol-notx.rar resource adapter
Replace the existing resource-adapters subsystem element in its entirety with the following subsystem definition: 
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:resource-adapters:5.0">
	<resource-adapters>
		<resource-adapter>
			<archive>mfcobol-notx.rar</archive>
			<transaction-support>NoTransaction</transaction-support>
			<connection-definitions>
				<connection-definition class-name="com.microfocus.cobol.connector.spi.CobolNoTxManagedConnectionFactory" jndi-name="java:/eis/MFCobol_v1.5" pool-name="CobolConnectionFactory">
					<pool>
						<min-pool-size>2</min-pool-size>
						<max-pool-size>10</max-pool-size>
					</pool>
					<security>
						<application/>
					</security>
				</connection-definition>
			</connection-definitions>
		</resource-adapter>
	</resource-adapters>
</subsystem>
Add the mfcobol-localtx.rar resource adapter
Within the <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:resource-adapters:5.0"> tag, add the following <resource-adapter> definition as a child of <resource-adapters>: 
<resource-adapter>
			<archive>mfcobol-localtx.rar</archive>
			<transaction-support>LocalTransaction</transaction-support>
			<connection-definitions>
				<connection-definition class-name="com.microfocus.cobol.connector.spi.CobolLocalTxManagedConnectionFactory" jndi-name="java:/eis/MFCobol_v1.5" pool-name="CobolConnectionFactory">
					<pool>
						<min-pool-size>2</min-pool-size>
						<max-pool-size>10</max-pool-size>
					</pool>
					<security>
						<application/>
					</security>
				</connection-definition>
			</connection-definitions>
		</resource-adapter>
Add the mfcobol-xa.rar resource adapter
Within the <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:resource-adapters:5.0"> tag, add the following <resource-adapter> definition as a child of <resource-adapters>: 
<resource-adapter>
			<archive>mfcobol-xa.rar</archive>
			<transaction-support>XATransaction</transaction-support>
			<connection-definitions>
				<connection-definition class-name="com.microfocus.cobol.connector.spi.CobolManagedConnectionFactory" jndi-name="java:/eis/MFCobol_v1.5" pool-name="CobolConnectionFactory">
					<xa-pool>
						<min-pool-size>2</min-pool-size>
						<max-pool-size>10</max-pool-size>
					</xa-pool>
					<security>
						<application/>
					</security>
				</connection-definition>
			</connection-definitions>
		</resource-adapter>
