Configuring WebLogic for Asynchronous Communications

ProcedureTo Configure Startup Classes

  1. Locate the Change Center in the upper-left corner of the Administration Console.

  2. Click on Lock & Edit to lock the editable configuration hierarchy for the domain. This enables you to make changes using the Administration Console. This also allows you to modify, add or delete items in the domain.


    Note –

    The Release Configuration in the Change Center allows others to edit the domain and ensures no pending changes exist.


  3. Expand Environment from the Domain tree structure on the left panel of the console.

  4. Select Startup & Shutdown Classes from the tree structure to configure a new startup class.

  5. Click New from the Summary of Startup and Shutdown Classes page.


    Note –

    This page summarizes the startup and shutdown classes that are configured in the current domain. You must deploy each class on one or more specific servers.


    This displays Configure a New Startup or Shutdown Class page.

  6. Select Startup Class from the list and click Next.

  7. Enter a name for the Startup Class in Startup Class Properties page that you will use to identify the configuration of your Java class.


    Note –

    You can create multiple named configurations for any given class. After you have created a class configuration, you cannot change its name. Instead, delete the configuration and create a new one with a new name.


    The following properties will be used to identify the class you are configuring. Enter the following values,

    1. Name: SunMicrosystems_Startup

    2. Class Name: com.stc.eways.weblogic.startup.WeblogicStartup
