Defining Global Transaction settings for web components

Global Transaction settings are WebSphere® Application Server extensions to the web specification. If an application uses two or more resources, then an external transaction manager is needed to coordinate the updates to both resource managers in a global transaction.

Procedure

  1. Switch to the Java™ EE perspective.
  2. In the Enterprise Explorer view, select the desired web module.
  3. Right click the deployment descriptor, and select Open With > Deployment Descriptor Editor.
  4. On the Servlets page of the editor, select a servlet, and find the Global Transaction section under the WebSphere Extensions section.
  5. Click the Use Web Services Atomic Transaction check box to implement the set of web services that enable web service applications to participate in global transactions distributed across the heterogeneous web service environment.
  6. Click the Send Web Services Atomic Transactions on requests check box to implement the set of web services that enable web service applications to participate in global transactions distributed across the heterogeneous web service environment.
  7. Click the Execute using Web Services Atomic Transaction of incoming requests check box for incoming requests.

Results

After you define the global transaction settings, you can click Remove to remove the global transaction settings.
