Update the JDK

Use the Jenkins job to replace the Java Development Kit (JDK) for a domain that you created with Oracle WebLogic Server for OKE.

You can use one of the following sources to specify the location of the JDK installer file:

• Object Storage - Uses the pre-authenticated URL on the Object Storage.

  You must specify the location of a JDK that uses the Linux x64 compressed archive format (.tar.gz).

• Shared File System - Uses the path of the shared file storage.

  The NFS shared file system path is mounted on /u01/shared location on the administration host.

To update the JDK for the domain:

1. Sign in to the Jenkins console for your domain. See Access the Jenkins Console.
2. On the Dashboard page, click jdk-patch.
3. Click Build with Parameters.
4. Select the source of the JDK installer file from the JDK_Installer list.
5. For JDK_Location, specify the http pre-authenticated URL or the path of the zip file on the shared file system.
6. Deselect the Rollback_On_Failure check box if you do not want to rollback to the previous working domain image (optional).

   If you deselected this check box, you can rollback to the previous image later from the backup.

   The Rollback_On_Failure check box is selected by default.

7. Click Build to run the Pipeline job.

   You can see the different stages of the Pipeline for the jdk-patch job. See Pipeline Job Stages in Domain in Image.
