Upgrade a 14.1.1 Instance to 14.1.2

Use these steps to upgrade your WebLogic Server for OCI 14.1.1 stack to 14.1.2.

Note:

When you upgrade your 14.1.1 instance to 14.1.2, you create a cloned copy of the WLS OCI 14.1.1 stack. This process will not affect the original 14.1.1 instance, but the new 14.1.2 instance will have different IPs.

To upgrade your 14.1.1 instance to 14.1.2:
  1. Create a new 14.1.2 WLS OCI stack. See Create a Stack

    Note:

    When creating the new 14.1.2 stack, use the same configuration as the existing 14.1.1 stack, but use a different resource prefix for the new instance.
  2. Clone the existing instance using the WebLogic OCI cloning steps in Clone a non-JRF Instance. Clone only the data block volume, using the cloning command:
    python3 create_clone.py -s <Original_instance_stack_OCID>

    Note:

    When prompted for the original instance, provide the 14.1.1 stack information.

    When prompted for the cloning instance, provide the 14.1.2 stack information.

    This creates a cloned instance that has a 14.1.1 domain with 14.1.2 binaries.

  3. Follow the upgrade steps from the WebLogic Server Upgrade Guide: .Upgrading Oracle WebLogic Server to 14.1.2
  4. Enable restful-management-services in $DOMAIN_HOME/config.xml.
    <restful-management-services>
         <name>NO_NAME_0</name>
         <enabled>true</enabled>
       </restful-management-services>
