This chapter describes how to extend the enterprise deployment domain to include Oracle WebCenter Content User Interface software.
This chapter provides information on modifying system-level setting through MBeans and configuring http server with the WebCenter Content user interface cluster.
UseDatabaseWfInQueue
configuration variable enables the WebCenter Content user interface to filter workflows assigned to a user. The EmailNotificationType
configuration variable specifies where the links in notification emails point for workflows and subscriptions in different Content Server user interfaces, and its default value is NativeWebUI
.This section provides instructions for extending the existing enterprise deployment domain with the Oracle WebCenter Content user interface software.
Extending the domain involves the following tasks.
Follow the instructions in this section to create and configure the domain for the topology.
Note:
You can use the same procedure described in this section to extend an existing domain. If your needs do not match the instructions given in the procedure, be sure to make your selections accordingly, or refer to the supporting documentation for additional details.
Domain creation and configuration includes the following tasks:
On the Configuration Type screen, select Update an existing domain.
In the Domain Location field, select the value of the ASERVER_HOME
variable, which represents the complete path to the Administration Server domain home you created in Creating the Initial Infrastructure Domain for an Enterprise Deployment.
For more information about the directory location variables, see File System and Directory Variables Used in This Guide.
Tip:
More information about the other options on this screen can be found in Configuration Type in Creating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.
On the Templates screen, make sure Update Domain Using Product Templates is selected, then select the following templates:

On the Managed Servers screen, a new Managed Server appears in the list of servers.
Perform the following tasks to modify the default Managed Server and create a second Managed Server:
Rename the default Managed Server to WLS_WCCUI1
.
Click Add to create a new Managed Server and name it WLS_WCCUI2
.
Tip:
The server names recommended here will be used throughout this document; if you choose different names, be sure to replace them as needed.
Use the following table to fill in the rest of the columns for each Oracle WebCenter Content user interface Managed Server.
Tip:
More information about the options on the Managed Server screen can be found in Managed Servers in Creating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.
Server Name | Listen Address | Listen Port | Enable SSL | SSL Listen Port | Server Groups |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
WLS_WCCUI1 |
WCCHOST1 |
16225 |
No |
Disabled |
UCM-ADF-MGD-SVR |
WLS_WCCUI2 |
WCCHOST2 |
16225 |
No |
Disabled |
UCM-ADF-MGD-SVR |
In this task, you create a cluster of Managed Servers to which you can target the Oracle WebCenter Content software.
You will also set the Frontend Host property for the cluster, which ensures that, when necessary, WebLogic Server will redirect Web services callbacks and other redirects to wcc.example.com
on the load balancer rather than the address in the HOST header of each request.
For more information about the wcc.example.com
virtual server address, see Configuring Virtual Hosts on the Hardware Load Balancer.
Use the Clusters screen to create a new cluster:
Click the Add button.
Specify WCCUI_Cluster
in the Cluster Name field.
Note:
By default, server instances in a cluster communicate with one another using unicast. If you want to change your cluster communications to use multicast, refer to "Considerations for Choosing Unicast or Multicast" in Administering Clusters for Oracle WebLogic Server.
Tip:
More information about the options on this screen can be found in Clusters in Creating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.
Use the Assign Servers to Clusters screen to assign WLS_WCCUI1
and WLS_WCCUI2
to the new cluster, WCCUI_Cluster
:
In the Clusters pane, select the cluster to which you want to assign the servers; in this case, WCCUI_Cluster
.
In the Servers pane, assign WLS_WCCUI1 to WCCUI_Cluster
by doing one of the following:
Click the WLS_WCCUI1
Managed Server once to select it, then click on the right arrow to move it beneath the selected cluster in the Clusters pane.
Double-click WLS_WCCUI1
to move it beneath the selected cluster in the clusters pane.
Repeat to assign WLS_WCCUI2
to WCCUI_Cluster
.
Tip:
More information about the options on this screen can be found in Assign Servers to Clusters in Creating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.
Use the Coherence Clusters screen to configure the Coherence cluster that is automatically added to the domain. Leave the port number value at 0
, as it was defined during the initial Infrastructure domain creation.
Note:
For Coherence licensing information, refer to "Oracle Coherence" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Licensing Information.
Under the Unix Machine tab, verify the names of the machines you created when creating the initial Infrastructure domain.
Click Next to proceed.
Use the Assign Servers to Machines screen to assign the Oracle WebCenter Content user interface Managed Servers you just created to the corresponding machines in the domain.
Assign WLS_WCCUI1
to WCCHOST1
, and assign WLS_WCCUI2
to WCCHOST2
.

The Configuration Summary screen contains the detailed configuration information for the domain you are about to create. Review the details of each item on the screen and verify that the information is correct.
You can go back to any previous screen if you need to make any changes, either by using the Back button or by selecting the screen in the navigation pane.
Domain creation will not begin until you click Update.
Tip:
More information about the options on this screen can be found in Configuration Summary in Creating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard.
The Configuration Success screen will show the following items about the domain you just configured:
Domain Location
Administration Server URL
You must make a note of both items as you will need them later; the domain location is needed to access the scripts used to start the Node Manager and Administration Server, and the URL is needed to access the Administration Server.
Click Finish to dismiss the configuration wizard.
Start the Administration Server to ensure the changes you have made to the domain have been applied.
Propagate the start scripts and classpath configuration from the Administration Server's domain directory to the Managed Server domain directory.
To ensure high availability, modify system-level configuration settings for WebCenter Content user interface through the System Configuration page in Fusion Middleware Control. The settings on this page configure the WebCenter Content user interface MBeans for the domain.
For information about how to modify system-level settings in Fusion Middleware control, see "Modifying System Configuration Settings" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administering Oracle WebCenter Capture.
