Glassfish: Silently ignore unavailable data source at application start up
问题 I have an EJB application which uses JPA 2.0 on Glassfish 3.1.2 (provider is EclipseLink). When the database is down the application does not start and even more: can't be deployed. This is because EclipseLink does some initial verification. Is there a way that the application can be deloyed and started even if the database is down? Background: The resource being unavailable comes not into play until the first business function is called which accesses the database. From application startup
