2.8 Workshop for WebLogic 10.3 Extension Template

Using the Configuration Wizard or WLST, you can easily extend a base WebLogic Server domain to include the resources required for using Workshop for WebLogic 10.3. You accomplish this by adding the resources and services provided in the Workshop for WebLogic 10.3 template to a base WebLogic Server domain.

Note:

Using the Configuration Wizard in graphical mode, you can easily create an Oracle Workshop for WebLogic domain by checking the Workshop for WebLogic 10.3 check box in the Select Domain Source window. The result is the same as creating a base WebLogic Server domain first and then extending that domain with both the Workshop for WebLogic 10.3 extension template. For more information about the templates required to create a Workshop for WebLogic 10.3 domain, see Section 1.5, "Relationships Between Templates."

2.8.1 Generated Domain Output

The following table defines the default directory structure and files generated after applying the Workshop for WebLogic 10.3 template to a base WebLogic Server domain. Unless otherwise specified, by default, the Configuration Wizard creates the domain in the MW_HOME\user_projects\domains\base_domain directory. If you modify the default configuration settings, the output directory structure may be different from the structure described here.
