JBoss EAP 7.1 CICS Resource Adapter Configuration

Describes the steps required to install and configure the JBoss EAP 7.1 CICS resource adapter.

Copy the mf-ibm-cics-notx-jb_eap71.rar file, located by default in the %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Enterprise Developer\javaee-ccl\javaee7\jboss71EAP directory, to the standalone\deployments directory of your JBoss installation.

In the JBoss standalone.xml file, usually located in the standalone\configuration directory of your JBoss installation, replace the existing resource-adapters subsystem element with the following subsystem definition:

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:resource-adapters:5.0">
   <resource-adapters>
      <resource-adapter>
         <archive>mfcics-notx-jb_eap71.rar</archive>
         <transaction-support>NoTransaction</transaction-support>
         <connection-definitions>
            <connection-definition 
                class-name="com.microfocus.cics.connector.spi.MFECINoTxManagedConnectionFactory" 
                jndi-name="java:/eis/MFCICS_v1.5" pool-name="MFECIConnectionFactory">
              <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>

In the standalone.xml file, edit the <archive-validation> element (child element of <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:jca:5.0">) to read as follows:
```
<archive-validation enabled="false" fail-on-error="true" fail-on-warn="false"/>
```
