In the Electronic Journal database, create the tables used by the
Electronic Journal service using the JDBCJournalSchemaGenerator. For
information, see Using the Electronic Journal Schema Generator.
For the pool manager in WebSphere(R) Application Server, identify
the database used by the Electronic Journal service.
Define the Electronic Journal service object in the service definition
file. In this file, the service definition sets attributes such
as autoCommit and identifies the schema name for the journal tables. See Electronic
Journal external definitions for a list of attributes and what the attributes
do. See Setting up multiple journal instances to use a single set of journal
tables for any additional configuration that you may have to do.
Define the Electronic Journal service requester in the resource
bundle file. For more information on defining services, see Services.
Define the formatters used by the Electronic Journal service in
the formatter definition file.
Package all of the resources used by the service (definition files
and JAR files) and install them in WebSphere Application Server.
Once the Electronic Journal service is on WebSphere Application Server, applications
can save, retrieve, and update records in the journal.
