<li>
<p>In the navigation tree, expand the Resources node.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Under the Resources node, expand the JNDI node.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Under the JNDI node, select External Resources.</p>
<p>The External Resources page opens.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>On the External Resources page, click the name of the resource that you are editing.</p>
<p>The Edit External Resource page opens.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>To modify the Resource Type, do one of the following.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>From the drop-down list, select a type definition.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Select the second radio button and type a fully qualified type definition that follows the format <i>xxx</i><code>.</code><i>xxx</i>.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<p>In the Factory Class field, type a JNDI factory class external repository for the external resource.</p>
<p>The Factory Class is the user-specified name for the factory class, such as <code>com.sun.jndi.ldap</code>. This class implements the <code>javax.naming.spi.InitialContextFactory</code> interface.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>In the JNDI Lookup field, type the JNDI value to look up in the external repository.</p>
<p>For example, when creating an external resource to connect to an external repository, to test a bean class, the JNDI Lookup can look like this: <code>cn=</code><i>testmybean</i>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>In the Deployment Order field, type a number to specify the deployment order of the external resource.</p>
<p>Resources with a lower number are loaded first at server startup. The default value is 100.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>In the Description field, Type a short description of the resource.</p>
<p>This description is a string value and can include a maximum of 250 characters.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Select the Status Enabled checkbox to enable the resource.</p>
<p>By default, the resource is enabled, meaning that it is available as soon as it is created.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>In the Additional Properties section, specify additional properties for the external resource.</p>
<p>GlassFish Server does not define any additional properties for external resources.</p>
