If you want to access a resource defined in GlobalNamingResources
from a webapp, the context description for the webapp must
contain a ResourceLink for the resource.

ResourceLink is what you use to "map" a server resource name to
the resource name expected by the application (so, is something
that is created at time of deployment).

Please see the documentation:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/globalresources.html
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/context.html#Resource%20Links
