Registering and Configuring the Solaris Cluster HA for Oracle WebLogic Server

This section contains the procedures that you need to configure Solaris Cluster HA for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Setting Solaris Cluster HA for Oracle WebLogic Server Extension Properties

The sections that follow contain instructions for registering and configuring Solaris Cluster HA for Oracle WebLogic Server resources. For information about the extension properties, see HA for WebLogic Server Extension Properties. The Tunable entry indicates when you can update a property.

See Appendix A, Standard Properties, in Oracle Solaris Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for details about all the Oracle Solaris Cluster properties.

To set an extension property of a resource, include the following option in the clresource(1CL) command that creates or modifies the resource:

-p property=value 

-p property

Identifies the extension property that you are setting.

value

Specifies the value to which you are setting the extension property.

You can also use the procedures in Chapter 2, Administering Data Service Resources, in Oracle Solaris Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide to configure resources after the resources are created.

How to Register and Configure Solaris Cluster HA for Oracle WebLogic Server as a Failover Data Service

Use this procedure to configure Solaris Cluster HA for Oracle WebLogic Server as a failover data service. The following steps assume that you are using the failover configuration that is described in Standard Data Service Configurations and have configured the WebLogic Servers as mentioned in Installing and Configuring the Oracle WebLogic Server Application. These steps assume that you have already created resource groups RG1 and RG2 and have also created logical-host-1 and logical-host-2 resources in these resource groups. Refer to How to Prepare the Nodes for a Failover Configuration for procedures to create logical hostname resources. If you are planning a different configuration, you must configure the WebLogic Server resources accordingly.

1. Add the Oracle WebLogic Server resource type.

   # clresourcetype register SUNW.wls

2. Create a Oracle WebLogic Administration Server resource in the RG1 resource group.

   # clresource create -g RG1 -t SUNW.wls \
   -p Confdir_list=/global/bea/beahome/weblogic700 \
   -p Server_url=http://logical-host-1:7001 \
   -p Start_script=/global/bea/beahome/user_projects/petstore/startWebLogic.sh admin-rs

   The resource is created in the enabled state.

   ---

   Note - This configuration does not enable smooth shutdown. The Solaris Cluster HA for Oracle WebLogic Server stop method forces the shutdown of the Oracle WebLogic Administration Server (kills the process). Refer to Creating a Resource That Shuts Down Smoothly for the configuration to enable smooth shutdown. For more information, see STOP Method.

   ---

3. Create a Oracle WebLogic Managed Server resource in the RG2 resource group.

   # clresource create -g RG2 -t SUNW.wls \
   -p Confdir_list=/global/bea/beahome/weblogic700 \
   -p Server_url=http://logical-host-2:7004 \
   -p Start_script=/global/bea/beahome/user_projects/petstore/startManagedWebLogic.sh managed-rs

   The resource is created in the enabled state.

How to Register and Configure Solaris Cluster HA for Oracle WebLogic Server as a Multi-Master Data Service

Use this procedure to configure Solaris Cluster HA for Oracle WebLogic Server in a multi-master configuration. The following steps assume that you are using the configuration that is described in Oracle WebLogic Server Configured as a Multi-Master Resource and have configured the WebLogic Servers as mentioned in Installing and Configuring the Oracle WebLogic Server Application. These steps assume that you have already created a resource group and started the administration server either outside or inside the agent control. If you are planning a different configuration, you must configure the WebLogic Server resources accordingly.

• Create a multi-master resource for starting the managed server instances simultaneously.

  ---

  Note - The Server_url must be set to localhostport-number because the managed server instances are listening on all local addresses.

  ---

  The following example starts the WebLogic Server managed server instances mgd1 on node1 and mgd2 on node2.

  # clresource create -t SUNW.wls -g mdg-rg \ 
  -p Confdir_list=/local/bea/beahome/wlserver_10.3 \
  -p Server_url=http://localhost:port-number \
  -p Start_script=/local/bea/beahome/user_projects/domains/base_domain_mgd1/bin/startManagedWebLogic.sh \
  -p "Server_name{node1}"=mgd1 \
  -p "Server_name{node2}"=mgd2 \
  -p smooth_shutdown=true managed-rs

  ---

  Tip - You can create the resource in the global cluster or in a zone cluster. To create a resource in the specific zone cluster from the global cluster, use the -Z option to specify the name of the zone cluster.
