Install WebLogic Remote Console

WebLogic Remote Console is an open source console that you can use to manage multiple WebLogic server domains.

The WebLogic Remote Console need not be co-located with the WebLogic Server domain. It can reside on your local machine and connect to any remote WebLogic server domain that is installed on a physical or virtual machine, a container, Kubernetes, or in the Cloud like OCI and AWS. The WebLogic Remote console uses REST APIs to connect to WebLogic Server domains.

See the following before installing WebLogic Remote Console:

  1. Download the latest release of WebLogic Remote Console from here.
    You can download either the .zip file and unzip it on your machine, or download the operating system specific files like .exe and .rpm. For example, you can download the WebLogic-Remote-Console-2.4.16-linux.rpm for a Linux machine.
  2. On your computer, under domain_home, create a directory called management-services-ext.
  3. (Optional) Download the extension file console-rest-ext-X.0.war from here and place it in the management-services-ext folder.

    • Inspect the JNDI table
    • Manage JMS messages and JTA transactions
