Make Online Configuration Changes

You can make online configuration changes from any computer where you have access to the Administration Server domain mbeans.

Assumptions and pre-requisites:

• You must have Weblogic Administrator permissions.

• The Administration Server must be running.

• After making changes, you must restart the affected BI component(s), see Start Component Processes in a Domain.

Running WLST Online

You run WLST script commands from the following location:

ORACLE_HOME/oracle_common/common/bin/wlst.sh

• Connect to Administration Server by issuing the following command:

  ./wlst.sh connect(<username>, <password>, <connect string>)

  For example,

  ./wlst.sh connect('weblogic', 'mypassword', 't3://localhost:9500')
  

• You must enter edit tree and start an edit session by issuing edit() and startEdit() commands before issuing commands.

• Use the save() command to save all changes made during the edit session.

• Use the activate() command to commit your changes.

If you attempt to issue a command outside an edit session, the command fails and displays a help message.

If you make a mistake or decide to abandon changes then you must use the undo() or cancelEdit() command.
