Management Agents on WLS

In order for Server Manager to manage WLS, you should install the Management Agent on your machine that has Oracle WebLogic Server as the oracle user. Additionally, you should enable the Management Agent to run as the oracle user.

For UNIX systems, if you cannot install the agent as a non-root user (for example, on AIX), then install the agent as the ROOT user and then change the owner using the chown command.

Before proceeding, you should ensure that you stop the Management Agent and select it with the new owner.
