Configure WebLogic Compute Instance Parameters

Specify the parameters needed to configure the WebLogic instance domain.

1. Select the WebLogic Server shape for the compute instances.
   The following shapes are supported:

   • Standard: VM.Standard2.x, VM.Standard.E2.x, BM.Standard2.x, BM.Standard.E2.x, BM.Standard3.64
   • Flexible: VM.Standard.E3.Flex, VM.Standard.E4.Flex, VM.Standard3.Flex
   • Optimized: BM.Optimized3, VM.Optimized3.Flex

   Note:

   In regional subnets, select the WebLogic Server shape that has sufficient service limits for an availability domain, else the provisioning fails.

2. For the flexible shapes (VM.Standard.E3.Flex, VM.Standard.E4.Flex, VM.Standard3.Flex, VM.Optimized3.Flex), select the OCPU count for compute instances.

   Note:

   You can specify the OCPU count only for the flexible shapes; the maximum number of OCPUs that you can specify for VM.Standard.E3.Flex and VM.Standard.E4.Flex is 64 OCPUs, for VM.Standard3.Flex is 32 OCPUs, and for VM.Optimized3.Flex is 18 OCPUs. The memory, network bandwidth, and number of Virtual Network Interface Cards (VNICs) scale proportionately with the number of OCPUs.

3. Select the number of managed servers you want to create. For 12c and 14c versions and all the editions, you can specify up to 8 nodes, which can be scaled out to 30 when you edit the domain.
   The managed servers will be members of a cluster, unless you selected WebLogic Server Standard Edition.
4. Optional: If you are using a regional subnet, then from the WebLogic Administration Sever Availability Domain, select the availability domain in which you want to create the WebLogic administration server compute instance. If you do not select an availability domain, then by default, the compute instance is created in availability domain 1.
5. For the WebLogic Server subnet, specify one of the following:
   • If you want to use an existing regional subnet, then choose the name of an existing regional subnet from the list of regional and availability domain-specific subnets.
   • If you are creating a new regional subnet, specify a CIDR for the new subnet.

     Note:

     This is applicable only if you are creating a new VCN or using an existing VCN with new subnets.
6. If you are using existing network security groups (NSGs) for an existing subnet, specify the NSG that is assigned to the virtual machine of the administration server node and the managed server node.
