Overriding Scan Settings for a Managed Instance

At the managed instance-level, change the domain scan frequency and the domain scan paths that WebLogic Management uses when scanning for new WebLogic domains and changes to existing domains, such as finding new servers. The scan settings for the managed instance override the scan settings for the region and tenancy.

Important

When you change the default scan settings at the managed instance-level, if a server is added on a different managed instance its status could show up as UNKNOWN. This happens when a service-level scan detects a server on the managed instance before the managed instance conducts its scan. After the managed instance conducts its scan, the missing information such as host, server attributes and server check is reported.

1. On the Managed instances list page, select the instance name.
2. On the details page, click Modify settings.
3. On the Modify settings panel under Domain scan settings, change the service-level settings for the managed instance:
  - WebLogic domain scan frequency (in hours): Enter a number to represent how often the plugin scans for WebLogic domains.
  - Domain home path(s): Enter the file system path to scan (one-level deep) for domains, for example, /u01/data/.
  - Add another path: Enter any additional file system search paths.
  Important
  
  These changes only apply to this managed instance.
4. Click Save.
Next Steps
After changing the restart order for servers, next steps might include:
- Scanning Managed Instances
- Scanning Domains
Use the oci wlms managed-instance update command and optional configuration parameter to change WebLogic domain discovery interval and search paths settings for a managed instance.
```
oci wlms managed-instance update --configuration file://configuration.json --managed-instance-id ocid [OPTIONS]
```
To generate an example of the JSON required:
```
oci wlms managed-instance update --generate-param-json-input configuration
{
  "discoveryInterval": 0,
  "domainSearchPaths": [
    "string",
    "string"
  ]
}
```
For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.
Run the UpdateManagedInstance operation using the UpdateManagedInstanceConfigurationDetails to configure domain scanning at the managed instance level.
