Supported Configurations for WebLogic Server 6.1
Sun Microsystems/Fujitsu SPARC with Solaris 9
Note: WebLogic Server 6.1 was retired November 14, 2006. See Supported Configurations.
General Information
- For 1.3.1 SDK End-of-Life information, see BEA Product End-of-Life Announcements.
- To download supported releases for this platform, see Distribution and Installation Information.
- For Information on Web servers supplied by third-party vendors that are supported by WebLogic Server 6.1, see Platform Support for Web Servers.
- WebLogic supports Sun Solaris on Sun Microsystems/Fujitsu SPARC computers. For information on Solaris, see Sun's Solaris web page.
- For Sun's support services info site, see http://www.sun.com/service/support. If you have a support contract for the use of Solaris platforms, you may be able to obtain support for general Java issues (for example, JVM problems).
- We have encountered a problem where some Solaris JVMs report an incorrect IP number. The reported IP number for the machine is the first number in the
/etc./hosts file, which, unfortunately, is frequently 127.0.0.1, the standard loopback network address for the machine. This problem affects licenses, where a license is granted for a specific IP number. We have also observed this problem in a cluster where an HTTP request is passed by a web server or another WebLogic Server via the HttpClusterServlet, to a WebLogic Server running on a Solaris machine with this configuration problem. The 127.0.0.1 IP number is carried with the server's response. Subsequent calls to that machine time out because of the incorrect IP number. You can run the command java utils.netAddresses to see if you have this problem on your Solaris computer. If you see 127.0.0.1 in the output, ask the system administrator to move the computer's network IP address to the beginning of the /etc/hosts file.
- If you have problems with OutOfMemory errors and the JVM crashing with JDK 1.3, try setting: -XX:MaxPermSize=128m. There is currently an open bug on Sun's bug parade that describes this problem. See http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4390238.html.
- For information on suggested values for some Solaris TCP and VM-related tunable parameters, see Operating System Tuning in BEA WebLogic Server 6.1 Performance and Tuning.
