Scanning Managed Instances

WebLogic Management scans the specified managed instance for new WebLogic domains, changes to the existing domains, and the domains' patch readiness.

Tip

Before scanning a managed instance, consider reviewing server state, patch readiness, and applied patches from the instances details page.
    1. On the Managed instances list page, find the instance you want to work with.
    2. Start a Scan in one of the following ways:
      • Check one or more instances and then click Scan.
      • Select Scan from the Actions menu (Actions icon) for a manged instance.
      • Select the name of a managed instance and then from its details page, click Scan.
    3. From the Scan managed instance dialog, review that this is the instance(s) to scan and then click Run.

      A scan in-progress message displays.

    4. (Optional) View more information on the managed instance details page where its status changes to Updating. Under Resources, click Work requests to view scan progress.
    5. When the scan completes, the managed instance details page(s) show any changes to the instance. In the Servers section, review the patch readiness for each server.
      • If the Patch readiness for all servers is Passed, the domain can be patched. See Applying Patches to a Domain.
      • If the Patch readiness for a server is Failed or Warning, click View patch readiness details from the Actions menu (Actions icon) to learn why a particular server did not pass readiness checks and to help you take corrective action.
  • Use the oci wlms managed-instance scan command and required parameters to scan a managed instance for patchability.
