Usage: openejb start [options] Example: Simplest scenario openejb start That's it. The ejbd will start up and bind to IP 127.0.0.1 and port 4201. The following properties would then be used to get an InitialContext from the Remote Server. java.naming.factory.initial = org.apache.openejb.client.RemoteInitialContextFactory java.naming.provider.url = ejbd://127.0.0.1:4201 java.naming.security.principal = myuser java.naming.security.credentials = mypass Example: --conf=file openejb start --conf=C:\openejb\conf\mytest.conf Sets the openejb.configuration system variable to the file C:\openejb\conf\mytest.conf. When the server starts up and the initializes OpenEJB, this configuration will be used to assemble the container system and load beans. Example: --local-copy openejb start --local-copy=true Instructs the container system to marshal (ie, copy) all calls between beans are required by the EJB 1.1 specification. openejb start --local-copy=false Instructs the container system to not marshal (copy) calls between beans. The container system as will pass parameters and return values without copying or marshalling as is required for EJB 2.0 Local interfaces. CONFIG OVERRIDE EXAMPLES Example: -D.bind=
openejb start -Dejbd.bind=10.45.67.8 This is the most common way to use the EJBd Server Service. The service will start up and bind to IP 10.45.67.8 and port 4201. The following properties would then be used to get an InitialContext from the EJBd Server Service. java.naming.factory.initial = org.apache.openejb.client.RemoteInitialContextFactory java.naming.provider.url = ejbd://10.45.67.8:4201 java.naming.security.principal = myuser java.naming.security.credentials = mypass DNS names can also be used. openejb start -Dejbd.bind=myhost.foo.com The following properties would then be used to get an InitialContext from the Remote Server. java.naming.factory.initial = org.apache.openejb.client.RemoteInitialContextFactory java.naming.provider.url = ejbd://myhost.foo.com:4201 java.naming.security.principal = myuser java.naming.security.credentials = mypass openejb start -Dtelnet.bind=myhost.foo.com The following properties would then be used to log into the server via a telnet client as such: telnet myhost.foo.com 4202 Example: -D.port= openejb start -Dejbd.port=8765 The server will start up and bind to IP 127.0.0.1 and port 8765. The following properties would then be used to get an InitialContext from the Remote Server. java.naming.factory.initial = org.apache.openejb.client.RemoteInitialContextFactory java.naming.provider.url = ejbd://127.0.0.1:8765 java.naming.security.principal = myuser java.naming.security.credentials = mypass openejb start -Dhttpejbd.port=8888 The server will start up and the EJB over HTTP service will bind to IP 127.0.0.1 and port 8888. The following properties would then be used to get an InitialContext from the HTTP/Remote Server. java.naming.factory.initial = org.apache.openejb.client.RemoteInitialContextFactory java.naming.provider.url = http://127.0.0.1:8888/openejb java.naming.security.principal = myuser java.naming.security.credentials = mypass Example: -D.only_from= openejb start -Dadmin.only_from=192.168.1.12 Adds 192.168.1.12 to the list of IP addresses that are authorized to shutdown the server or access the server via a telnet client. The host that this server was started on is always allowed to administer the server. Multiple hosts can be given administrative access to this server by listing all the host names separated by commas as such: openejb start -Dadmin.only_from=192.168.1.12,joe.foo.com,robert The first host in the string names the host explicitly using an IP address (192.168.1.12). The second host in uses a DNS name (joe.foo.com) to refer to the hosts IP address. The DNS name will be resolved and the IP will be added to the admin list. The third address refers to a the host by a name (robert) that the opperating system is able to resolve into a valid IP address. This is usually done via a hosts file, interal DNS server, or Windows Domain Server. Example: -D.threads= openejb start -Dejbd.threads=200 Sets the max number of concurrent threads that can enter the EJBd Server Service to 200. Example: -D.disabled= openejb start -Dtelnet.disabled=true Prevents the Telnet Server Service from starting when the OpenEJB Server starts. Bug Reports to
