Update Password for the weblogic User

If you update the password for the weblogic user, ensure that Oracle WebLogic Server for OCI secrets and metadata are updated with the new password.

To update the password:

Note:

As of release 14c (14.1.2.0.0), the WebLogic Server Administration Console has been removed. For comparable functionality, you should use the WebLogic Remote Console. For more information, see Oracle WebLogic Remote Console.

1. Sign in to the WebLogic Server Administration Console.
2. Under Domain Structure, click Security Realms.
3. In the Summary of Security Realms page, select myrealm, and then click Users and Groups tab.
4. Click the passwords tab for the weblogic user and update the password.
5. Under Domain structure, select the domain name, and then select the Security tab.
6. Click the Advanced tab and change the password for the Node Manager (the user name here should be set to weblogic by default).
7. ssh to Oracle WebLogic Server for OCI administration VM, take a backup, and update the boot.properties file under DOMAIN_HOME/servers/<Admin_server>/security with the clear text user name (weblogic) and the updated password.
8. Take a backup and update the boot.properties file under the $DOMAIN_HOME/servers/<AdminServer>/data/nodemanager directory.
9. Take a backup and rename the boot.properties file for the managed server in the $DOMAIN_HOME/servers/<managed_server>/data/nodemanager directory.
10. Restart the entire domain using the Oracle WebLogic Server for OCI restart scripts. See Start and Stop a Domain.

    Note:

    Use the newly created password when you are prompted for weblogic and Node Manager passwords while running the restart script.

Update the new password in the existing Oracle WebLogic Server for OCI secret in your OCI Vault. For instructions, see Update the Password Secret OCID, Policy, and User Name.
