Restarting WebLogic Servers

You can start and stop servers in an Oracle SOA Cloud Service (SOACS) instance by using the WebLogic Server Administration Console and via WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) commands.

Oracle SOA Cloud Service is built on top of Oracle Java Cloud Service, which in turn is built on top of Oracle WebLogic Server. When you create a SOACS instance, an Oracle WebLogic domain is provisioned across all machines that are part of that SOACS instance.

An Oracle WebLogic Domain is made up of a set of WebLogic server instances that work together to host and operate your Java EE applications. Within the domain only one WebLogic server instance is responsible for administrative operations, such as creating new server instances or deploying applications. That privileged server is referred to as the administration server, whereas all the rest are managed servers.

The administration server also hosts the WebLogic Server Administration Console.

You can start and stop both the administration and the managed servers in two ways:

  • Using the WebLogic Server Administration Console

  • Using WLST Commands
