C Oracle WebLogic Server Configuration Settings

This section contains Oracle WebLogic Server configuration setting recommendations for three sizes of deployment configurations:

Small (100 users)
Medium (300 to 400 users)
Large (1000 users)

These recommendations are based on a set of mixed scenarios.

Use this information when tuning the Oracle WebLogic server. When you make changes, do so in small increments so that you can be sure of the effects without significant negative results.

Note:

These recommendations are subject to change pending the results of benchmark testing and feedback on customer usage.

See MetaSolv Solution Planning Guide for more information on the recommended hardware for these deployments.
