Viewing or Setting Restart Order of Servers

During the patching process, servers are patched and restarted in a defined order. The initial restart order you see when viewing servers is a WebLogic domain setting. You can change the restart order; however, the administration server should always be set to zero (0).

1. On the Domains list page, select the name of the domain.
2. On the details page, the Servers section lists all servers in the domain. Review the restart order of the servers.
3. To change the restart order:
  1. Check one or more servers and then click Set restart order.
    Important
    
    Do not change the restart order of the administration server as it should always be set to zero (0).
  2. Enter a new restart order number for the selected servers and then click Save changes.
Next Steps
After changing the restart order for servers, next steps might include:
To view the server restart order, use either the oci wlms wls-domain list-servers or oci wlms managed-instance list-servers command and required parameters.
```
oci wlms wls-domain list-servers --wls-domain-id ocid [OPTIONS]
```
```
oci wlms managed-instance list-servers --managed-instance-id ocid [OPTIONS]
```
To change the restart order of servers in a specific WebLogic domain, use the oci wlms wls-domain set-restart-order command and required parameters.
```
oci wlms wls-domain set-restart-order --servers file://servers.json --wls-domain-id ocid [OPTIONS]
```
Use the --generate-param-json-input option to get an example of the JSON required.
For example:
```
oci wlms wls-domain set-restart-order --generate-param-json-input servers
```
For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.
Run the SetRestartOrder operation to set the restart order of servers in a domain.
