18.5. JDBC Object Store Support

18.5.1. JDBC Store for Transactions

JBoss Transactions can now be configured to use a JDBC database as its store. This eliminates the need for an expensive replicated storage solution on the application server machine, as file-based ObjectStore requires replicated storage for failover and recovery.
This is enabled in the Transactions Subsystem by setting the following two attributes using the CLI tool.
  1. Set use-jdbc-store to true.
    /subsystem=transactions:write-attribute(name=use-jdbc-store, value=true)
  2. Set jdbc-store-datasource to the JNDI name for the data source to use.
    /subsystem=transactions:write-attribute(name=jdbc-store-datasource, value=java:jboss/datasources/TransDS)
The complete set of attributes is provided below.
