BEA WebLogic Server and WebLogic Express 8.1 System Administration Documentation

System Administration

You manage a WebLogic Server installation by creating WebLogic Server domains -- a logically related group of WebLogic Server resources managed as a unit. A domain includes one or more WebLogic Server instances and can also include WebLogic Server clusters. You deploy and manage your applications as part of a WebLogic Server domain.
