<< Previous<\/a><\/p>\n

Use the Administration Console to:<\/h2><\/span>\n

* Configure, start, and stop WebLogic Server instances
\n* Configure WebLogic Server clusters
\n* Configure WebLogic Server services, such as database connectivity (JDBC) and messaging (JMS)
\n* Configure security parameters, including managing users, groups, and roles
\n* Configure and deploy your applications
\n* Monitor server and application performance
\n* View server and domain log files
\n* View application deployment descriptors
\n* Edit selected run-time application deployment descriptor elements<\/p>\n

Access the WebLogic Server administration console<\/h2><\/span>\n

* http:\/\/hostname:port\/console, e.g http:\/\/localhost:7001\/console<\/a>
\n* https:\/\/hostname:port\/console, e.g https:\/\/localhost:7002\/console<\/a><\/p>\n

Describe the parts of the administration console<\/h2><\/span>\n

* Change Center
\n* Domain Structure: contains a tree structure you can use to navigate to pages in the Administration Console.
\n* How do I…: links to online help tasks that are relevant to the current Console page.
\n* Tool Bar:
\n– Welcome message: Indicates user name with which you have logged into the Console.
\n– Connected to: The IP address and port you used to connect to the Console.
\n– Home: A link to the top page of the Console.
\n– Log Out: Click to log out of the Console.
\n– Preferences: A link to a page where you can change some Console behavior.
\n– Record: Starts recording your configuration actions as a series of WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) commands. Writes the commands to a separate file that you can replay in WLST.
\n– Help: A link to the Administration Console Online Help.
\n– Search: A text field in which you can enter a string to find any WebLogic Server Configuration MBeans that contain the string you specified in their name.
\n* Breadcrumb Navigation: A series of links that show the path you have taken through the Administration Console’s pages. You can click on any of the links to return to a previously-visited page.
\n* System Status: The System Status panel reports on the number of information, error, and warning messages that have been logged. You can view these messages in the server log files, which you can access from the Administration Console at Diagnostics > Log Files.<\/p>\n

Describe the parts of the help system<\/h2><\/span>\n

* Two parts:
\n– How do I…: documents procedures for tasks you can perform through using the Console.
\n– Administration Console Reference: provides reference information for each page in the Console, including descriptions of the attributes you can set using the Console.<\/p>\n

Access admin console preferences<\/h2><\/span>\n

* Tool Bar > Preferences<\/p>\n

Make a change to the configuration (lock & edit, make change, view changes and restarts (optional), activate changes)<\/h2><\/span>\n

* Locate the Change Center in the upper left of the Administration Console screen.
\n* Click the Lock & Edit<\/strong> button to lock the configuration edit hierarchy for the domain.
\n* Make the changes you desire on the relevant page of the Console. Click Save <\/strong>on each page where you make a change.
\n* Changes are saved in DOMAIN_HOME\/pending\/config.xml<\/em> file
\n* When you have finished making all the desired changes,
\n– click Activate Changes<\/strong> in the Change Center for changes to take effect.
\n– click Undo All Changes<\/strong> to revert any pending changes.<\/p>\n

Dynamic and Non-Dynamic Changes<\/h3><\/span>\n

* Non-dynamic changes require that the affected servers or system resources be restarted before they become effective.
\n* Non-dynamic properties are marked with an exclamation mark:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n

* Dynamic changes do not<\/strong> require server restart
\n* All changes are applied as a unit. So a single non-dynamic change requires restart in order for other dynamic changes to take effect.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n

Viewing Changes<\/h3><\/span>\n

You can view any changes that you have saved, but not yet activated, by clicking the View Changes and Restarts link in the Change Center. The View Changes and Restarts link presents two tabs, Change List and Restart Checklist:
\n* The Change List page presents all changes that have been saved, but not yet activated.
\n* The Restart Checklist lists all servers for which non-dynamic changes have been activated, but which require restarts before the changes become effective.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n

Run a WSLT script<\/h2><\/span>\n

Jython<\/h3><\/span>\n

* Java implementation of Python scripting language
\n* Can use both Java and Python standard libraries.
\n* Jython codes can be compiled to Java byte code (.class) and distributed in .jar files.
\n* Jython can be used
\n– interactively
\n– in batch
\n– embedded within Java class<\/p>\n

WLST<\/h3><\/span>\n

* Used for:
\n– automating common admin activities
\n– an alternative to admin console
\n– when graphical tools are not supported
\n* Usage example:
\n– creating new WLS domains
\n– retrieving and updating WLS domain configurations
\n– deploying applications
\n– get run time server stats<\/p>\n

WLST Modes<\/h3><\/span>\n

* Online mode
\n– connected to a running server
\n– access to all WLS config and run time attributes
\n– create and activate change sessions similar to WLS console
\n* Offline mode
\n– domain not running
\n– access only to persisted domain config data, i.e. config.xml
\n– create or update domains similar to using Configuration Wizard<\/p>\n

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

* Invoke WLST method 1:<\/p>\n

\r\ncd $WL_HOME\/common\/bin\r\n.\/wlst.sh\r\n<\/pre>\n
* Invoke WLST method 2:<\/p>\n
\r\ncd $WL_HOME\/server\/bin\r\n. .\/setWLSEnv.sh\r\njava weblogic.WLST\r\n\r\n# Use SSL connection\r\njava -Dweblogic.security.SSL.ignoreHostnameVerification=true -Dweblogic.security.TrustKeyStore=DemoTrust weblogic.WLST\r\n<\/pre>\n

To ensure on-the-wire security, the SSL port or \r\nAdmin port should be used instead.\r\n\r\nwls:\/wl_server\/serverConfig> cd('Servers')\r\nwls:\/wl_server\/serverConfig\/Servers> ls()\r\ndr--   examplesServer\r\n\r\nwls:\/wl_server\/serverConfig\/Servers> cd('examplesServer')\r\nwls:\/wl_server\/serverConfig\/Servers\/examplesServer> get('StartupMode')\r\n'RUNNING'\r\nwls:\/wl_server\/serverConfig\/Servers\/examplesServer> exit()\r\n\r\nExiting WebLogic Scripting Tool.\r\n<\/pre>\n
Run Script<\/h3><\/span>\n
\r\ncd $WL_HOME\/server\/bin\r\n. .\/setWLSEnv.sh\r\n\r\njava weblogic.WLST -i my_wlst_script.py # -i prevent WLST from exiting\r\n\r\n# or\r\ncd $WL_HOME\/common\/bin\r\n.\/wlst.sh\r\n\r\nwls:\/(offline)>execFile('my_wlst_script.py')\r\n<\/pre>\n
