Overview<\/h2><\/span>\n

* A command line scripting tools for WebLogic domain management:
\n– create
\n– manage
\n– monitor
\n* Based on Jython<\/p>\n

WSLT Online<\/h3><\/span>\n

* Is a JMX client
\n* Equivalent to Admin Console
\n– needs running Admin Server and active WebLogic domain
\n* Can
\n– view performance data
\n– manage security data
\n* Can NOT
\n– modify config data for managed servers<\/p>\n

WSLT Offline<\/h3><\/span>\n

* Provides read\/write access to config data
\n* Should NOT be used on active WebLogic domain (ignored\/overwritten otherwise)
\n* Can
\n– create domain templates
\n– create a new domain based on existing templates
\n– extend an existing, inactive domain
\n* Can NOT
\n– view performance data
\n– modify security data<\/p>\n

Command Modes<\/h2><\/span>\n

Interactice Mode<\/h3><\/span>\n

Script Mode<\/h3><\/span>\n

* Script needs .py<\/strong> file extension
\n* Can
\n– automate server config and application deployment
\n– apply same config setings across multiple nodes of a topology
\n– script scheduling
\n– automate complex procedures
\n– config an application in a hands free data center<\/p>\n

Embedded Mode<\/h3><\/span>\n

* WLST interpreter is instantiated in Java code.
\n* WLST commands and scripts are then run from within Java code.<\/p>\n

Secure WLST Connection<\/h2><\/span>\n

Admin Port<\/h3><\/span>\n

* WLST connects to a server instance via admin port.
\n* Default to 9002
\n* SSL enabled<\/p>\n

Secure Access from WLST Online<\/h3><\/span>\n

* Use user name and password as defined in the active WebLogic security realm.
\n– From command line<\/p>\n

\r\nconnect('weblogic', 'welcome1', 'localhost:7001')\r\n<\/pre>\n
– From password file<\/p>\n
\r\n# Prepare password files\r\nconnect('weblogic', 'welcome1', 'localhost:7001')\r\nstoreUserConfig('c:\/myFiles\/myuserconfigfile.secure',\r\n                          'c:\/myFiles\/myuserkeyfile.secure') \r\n\r\n# Use password files\r\nconnect(userConfigFile='c:\/myfiles\/myuserconfigfile.secure',\r\nuserKeyFile='c:\/myfiles\/myuserkeyfile.secure')\r\n<\/pre>\n
– Use boot.properties file<\/p>\n
\r\n# boot.properties file in current directory\r\nconnect()\r\n<\/pre>\n
Main Steps for Using WLST in Interactive or Script Mode<\/h2><\/span>\n
Invoking WLST<\/h3><\/span>\n
* Execute the appropriate shell script for your environment.
\n– UNIX<\/p>\n
\r\ncd WL_HOME\/common\/bin\r\n.\/wlst.sh\r\n<\/pre>\n
– Windows<\/p>\n
\r\ncd WL_HOME\\common\\bin\r\nwlst.cmd\r\n<\/pre>\n
* Execute the java weblogic.WLST command.<\/p>\n
\r\njava \r\n   [ -Dweblogic.security.SSL.ignoreHostnameVerification=true\r\n   -Dweblogic.security.TrustKeyStore=DemoTrust ]\r\n   [ -Dweblogic.security.JavaStandardTrustKeyStorePassPhrase=password]\r\n    [ -Dweblogic.security.CustomTrustKeyStoreFileName=filename\r\n     -Dweblogic.security.TrustKeystoreType=jks\r\n    [ -Dweblogic.security.CustomTrustKeyStorePassPhrase=password]]\r\n    [ -Dweblogic.security.SSL.hostnameVerifier=classname]\r\n   weblogic.WLST \r\n   [ -loadProperties propertyFilename ]\r\n   [ -skipWLSModuleScanning ]\r\n   [ [-i] filePath.py ] \r\n<\/pre>\n
– Example: <\/p>\n
\r\njjava weblogic.WLST c:\/Oracle\/Middleware\/wlserver\/templates\/scripts\/wlst\/distributeQueues.py\r\n\r\njava -Dweblogic.security.SSL.ignoreHostnameVerification=true\r\n-Dweblogic.security.TrustKeyStore=DemoTrust weblogic.WLST\r\n c:\/Oracle\/Middleware\/wlserver\/templates\/scripts\/wlst\/distributeQueues.py \r\n<\/pre>\n
* Run a WLST script.
\n– Use Java command line:<\/p>\n
\r\njava weblogic.WLST c:\/Oracle\/Middleware\/wlserver\/templates\/scripts\/wlst\/distributedQueues.py\r\n<\/pre>\n
– From WLST interactive mode:<\/p>\n
\r\nwls:offline> execfile('c:\/Oracle\/Middleware\/wlserver\/templates\/scripts\/wlst\/distributedQueues.py')\r\n<\/pre>\n
* Execute the WebLogic Scripting Tool command from the Start menu (Windows only).<\/p>\n
* Running WLST from Ant.
\n– Set env:
\nWL_HOME\\server\\bin\\setWLSEnv.cmd (or setWLSEnv.sh on UNIX)
\n– Import task:<\/p>\n
\r\n \r\n<\/pre>\n
