About Reconfiguring the Domain

Run the Reconfiguration Wizard to reconfigure your domain component configurations to Oracle Analytics Server.

When you reconfigure a WebLogic Server domain, the following items are automatically updated, depending on the applications in the domain:

• WebLogic Server core infrastructure

• Domain version

Note:

Before you begin the domain reconfiguration, note the following limitations:

• The Reconfiguration Wizard does not update any of your own applications that are included in the domain.

• Transforming a non-dynamic cluster domain to a dynamic cluster domain during the upgrade process is not supported.

  The dynamic cluster feature is available when running the Reconfiguration Wizard, but Oracle only supports upgrading a non-dynamic cluster upgrade and then adding dynamic clusters. You cannot add dynamic cluster during the upgrade process.

• If the installation that you’re upgrading does not use Oracle Access Management (OAM), then you must edit two files to prevent the Reconfiguration Wizard from attempting to update the nonexistent OAM Infrastructure schema, which causes the upgrade to fail.

  Comment out the lines in your $DOMAIN/init-info/domain-info.xml that are similar to this example:

  <!--extention-template-ref name="Oracle Identity Navigator" 
    version="11.1.1.3.0" 
    location="/u01/app/oracle/product/fmw/iam111130/common/templates/applications/yourcomany.oinav_11.1.1.3.0_template.jar" 
    symbol=""/-->
  
  <!--install-comp-ref name="oracle.idm.oinav" version="11.1.1.3.0" 
    symbol="yourcompany.idm.oinav_11.1.1.3.0_iam111130_ORACLE_HOME" 
    product_home="/u01/app/oracle/product/fmw/iam111130"/-->

  and similarly comment out the lines in $DOMAIN/config/config.xml that are similar to this example:

  <!--app-deployment> 
    <name>oinav#11.1.1.3.0</name>
    <target>AdminServer</target>
    <module-type>ear</module-type>
  
    <source-path>/u01/app/oracle/product/fmw/iam111130/oinav/modules/oinav.ear_11.1.1.3.0/oinav.ear</source-path>
    <deployment-order>500</deployment-order>
    <security-dd-model>DDOnly</security-dd-model>
    <staging-mode>nostage</staging-mode>
  </app-deployment-->
  

Specifically, when you reconfigure a domain, the following occurs:

• The domain version number in the config.xml file for the domain is updated to the Administration Server's installed WebLogic Server version.

• Reconfiguration templates for all installed Oracle products are automatically selected and applied to the domain. These templates define any reconfiguration tasks that are required to make the WebLogic domain compatible with the current WebLogic Server version.

• Start scripts are updated.

  If you want to preserve your modified start scripts, be sure to back them up before starting the Reconfiguration Wizard.

Note:

When the domain reconfiguration process starts, you can’t undo the changes that it makes. Before running the Reconfiguration Wizard, ensure that you have backed up the domain as covered in the pre-upgrade checklist. If an error or other interruption occurs while running the Reconfiguration Wizard, you must restore the domain by copying the files and directories from the backup location to the original domain directory. This is the only way to ensure that the domain has been returned to its original state before reconfiguration.

Follow these instructions to reconfigure the existing domain using the Reconfiguration Wizard. See Reconfiguring WebLogic Domains in Upgrading Oracle WebLogic Server.
