After you create a middleware server representation of
a BEA WebLogic server, update the configuration settings so that they
match your BEA WebLogic installation.
Before you begin
Federate the node that is running the BEA WebLogic server,
and create a representation of the server.
About this task
If you installed BEA WebLogic in a location other than
the default directory, update the WebSphere® variables
with your installation directory. To perform operations on your server,
configure the server operations for the BEA WebLogic middleware server
representation.
Note: Intelligent Management support for using
BEA WebLogic servers is stabilized. You can use the administrative
console or wsadmin scripting to manage these servers.
Procedure
- Update the WebSphere variables
so that they match the settings on the node that is running the BEA
WebLogic server.
- If you use wsadmin scripting to edit the
variables, follow the directions in the topic on modifying variables
using wsadmin scripting.
- To edit the variables in the administrative console, click .
Update the following variables:- WEBLOGIC_ADMINHOST
- Specifies the host name of the WebLogic administration server.
- Default value: localhost
- Scope: Cell
- WEBLOGIC_ADMINPORT
- Specifies the port of the WebLogic administration server.
- Default value: 7001
- Scope: Cell
- WEBLOGIC_ADMINPROTOCOL
- Specifies the protocol to use to connect to the WebLogic administration
server.
- Default value:t3
- Scope: Cell
- WEBLOGIC_ADMINURL
- Specifies the URL for the WebLogic administration server. The
value is created from other variables.
- Default value: ${WEBLOGIC_ADMINPROTOCOL}://${WEBLOGIC_ADMINHOST}:${WEBLOGIC_ADMINPORT}
- Scope: Cell
- WEBLOGIC_SERVERROOT
- Specifies an alias to the WEBLOGIC_DOMAINDIR variable.
- Default value: ${WEBLOGIC_DOMAIN_DIR}
- Scope: Cell
- WEBLOGIC_SERVERNAME
- Specifies the name of the server in the WebLogic administration
environment.
- Default value: ${WAS_SERVER_NAME}
- Scope: Server
- BEA_HOME
- Specifies the root installation location.
Default value: C:\bea
![[AIX HP-UX Solaris]](../images/unix.gif)
![[AIX]](../images/aixlogo.gif)
Default value: /opt/bea
- Scope: Cell
- WEBLOGIC_HOME
- Specifies the WebLogic root directory. The root is version-specific,
for example {$BEA_HOME}\weblogic91.
- Default value:{$BEA_HOME}\weblogic
- Scope: Cell
- WEBLOGIC_DOMAINNAME
- Specifies the name of the WebLogic domain.
- Default value: myDomain
- Scope: Cell
- WEBLOGIC_DOMAINDIR
- Builds the path to the WebLogic domain.
- Default value:${BEA_HOME}\user_projects\domains\${WEBLOGIC_DOMAINNAME}
- Scope: Cell
If the home directory is different on different
nodes in your configuration, create a variable with the same name
for specific nodes.
- Update the server operations for the BEA WebLogic server
to include the user name and password.
- If you use wsadmin to update server operations,
follow the directions in the topic on starting the wsadmin client
using wsadmin scripting. The startMiddlewareServer command
and the stopMiddlewareServer commands require a
user name and password to run.
- If you use the administrative console, click . Edit the
stop server operation to include the user name and password that you
use for this operation.
- Optional: Update the HTTP and HTTPS ports for
your servers. The default port is 7001. If you use a value
other than the default, you must change the port.
- If you use wsadmin scripting, use the modifyForeignServerProperty command
in the middleware server management administrative tasks to change
the ports.
- If you use the administrative console, click . Edit HTTP connector or HTTPS
connector. Click OK. Save and synchronize
your changes.
What to do next
- To use this configuration when you are configuring your other
BEA WebLogic servers, create a server template of your current BEA
WebLogic server.
- View the log files for your BEA WebLogic server on the computer
that hosts it.
- Edit configuration files for your BEA WebLogic server on the computer
that hosts it.
- After you create representations of all the BEA WebLogic servers,
you can add the representations to a dynamic cluster.
