How to Add Additional CLASSPATH Elements to a Managed Server

Steps

1. In the Common Tasks section in the browser interface, click WebLogic 8.

2. Click the Application Server Management: Start link.

   The component Details page displays.

3. In the Component Procedures list, select the row containing the setAdditionalClasspath procedure and click Run.

   The plan's Run page displays.

4. Select the Managed Server that you plan to update.

   Managed Servers follow the format host (install path), where host represents the name of the physical host and install path represents the name of the managed server. The managed server name displays as server_domainName_managedServerName. For example, server_wls_Server-One.

5. Click Run Selected Installations.

   The plan's Run page displays.

6. Type the additional CLASSPATH elements.

   The additional CLASSPATH elements will be added to the default CLASSPATH, which is defined in the WebLogic Managed Server startup script. This startup script was defined when the Managed Server was created. See How to Create a WebLogic Managed Server.

   For Windows systems, use a semicolon (;) to separate additional CLASSPATH elements, and use the backslash character (/) as a file separator. For example, c:/files/a1.jar;c:/files/a2.jar;c:/files/b1.jar

7. (Optional) If you want the new classpath elements to take effect immediately, select Restart Server.

8. Click Run Plan (Includes Preflight).
