This topic provides pre-requisites for configuring the Weblogic server.

The user is going to create a domain with two managed servers. The managed servers are going to be created on two different physical servers (nodes). Note that, this document has been prepared based on a test conducted in Linux servers. This requires a Weblogic Server of the same version to be installed on both the machines and services.

• Environment

  2 servers where Linux is installed, 1 will be primary where the admin console will be running along with managed servers, and the other where only managed servers will be.

• Softwares
  1. Oracle Weblogic Server 12.2.1.4 was installed on both machines under the same folder structure.
  2. JDK 1.8 Latest available version installed on both machines. In this document, the JDK1.8.0_241 version is used.
• Clock Synchronization

  The clocks of both the servers participating in the cluster must be synchronized to within one-second difference to enable proper functioning of jobs otherwise it will lead to session timeouts.

• Enable Graphical User Interface (GUI)

  Establish a telnet or SSH connection to the primary server. Start X-manager (or any similar tool) on windows desktop. Export DISPLAY environment variable to the machine IP where x-manager is running. Syntax: export DISPLAY=<ip-address>:<port>

  Test using xclock
