Install the Oracle WebLogic Deploy Tool

Download and install the Oracle WebLogic Server Deploy Tool (WDT) to your source and target Oracle Java Cloud Service instances.

WDT is an open-source project. It provides scripts that enable you to discover and export the configuration and application files from one Oracle WebLogic Server domain, and then import the configuration and applications into another domain.

1. Download the latest weblogic-deploy.zip file from the Oracle WebLogic Deploy Tool project on GitHub.
   Download version 0.22 or later.
2. Use a Secure Copy (SCP) client to upload the file to the Administration Server node in your source instance.

   scp -i <privatekey> weblogic-deploy.zip opc@<source_admin_IP>:/tmp

3. Use a Secure Shell (SSH) client to connect to the node.

   ssh -i <privatekey> opc@<source_admin_IP>

4. Change the owner of the weblogic-deploy.zip file to the oracle user.

   sudo chown oracle:oracle /tmp/weblogic-deploy.zip

5. Switch to the oracle user.

   sudo su - oracle

6. Extract weblogic-deploy.zip to /u01.

   unzip -d /u01 /tmp/weblogic-deploy.zip

7. Disconnect from the node.
8. Repeat step 2 through step 7 for your target instance.
