Managing WebLogic Domains and Administration Servers

This section contains procedures for managing WebLogic Domains and Administration Servers.

How to Remove a WebLogic Domain and Administration Server

By removing a WebLogic domain through the provisioning system, you automatically perform the following tasks.

• Uninstall the WebLogic AdminServer component and virtual host.

  This task removes the Administration Server. If you select the markOnly option, only AdminServer virtual host is removed.

• Uninstall all Managed Servers components and virtual hosts that belonged in the domain.

  This action also removes the Managed Server within the WebLogic environment unless you select the markOnly option.

• Uninstall all cluster components and virtual hosts that belonged in the domain.

  This action also removes clusters within the WebLogic environment unless you select the markOnly option.

• Remove application components, license configurations, and applications.

The WebLogic virtual hosts cannot contain components that do not belong to the plug-in. To successfully remove the WebLogic domain, all components that do not belong to the plug-in must be removed before running the domain uninstall plan.

Before You Begin

To remove a WebLogic domain, you must belong to a user group that has the Run Component Procedures permission on the folder that contains the component. You must also have the Allow on Host Set permission for the host set on which you plan to deploy the component.

3. Click Run.
