How to configure Derby/java DB on opensolaris for remote access

[Jan Lagerpusch <ja...@edict.de>]

Hi,

 

I am not sure whether this belongs to the derby or to the opensolaris/SMF
mailing list, but I'll give it a try here:

 

I am desperately trying to enable remote access to the SUNWjavadb (coming
with GlassFish) on an x86 openSolaris (2008.11) system. I would like to use
the SMF, so the javadb service is controlled by SMF, but I am not able to
find out which properties I have to set. 

 

Without SMF, I can simply start /opt/SUNWjavadb/bin/startNetworkServer -h
0.0.0.0

But by doing this, that javadb instance is not under SMF control.

 

Using SMF, remote access to the javadb instance is disabled. What do I have
to do to enable it?

 

Thanks a lot in advance,

Jan Lagerpusch

This question was answered on databases-discuss@opensolaris.org 
(2009-03-19). Copying the reply here:

Hi Jan,

You can add extra startup flags to the network server from the command 
line like this:
$ svccfg -s javadb 'setprop javadb/server_start_args = ("-h" "0.0.0.0")'
$ svcadm refresh javadb
$ svcadm restart javadb

There are other properties you could set too to change how the network 
server is started/stopped. If you take a look at /lib/svc/method/javadb 
it should give you a pretty good idea of how you can tweak it.

For the archives I'll just mention that Jan's question was answered on
another mailing list:
