Each resource group that refers to a given template will have its own runtime copies of the resources defined in the template. A resource group template is a convenient way to define and replicate resources for multiple tenants. Resource group templates make it very easy to deploy the same collection of applications and resources to multiple domain partitions.
Resource group templates are defined at the domain level, and then referenced by one or more resource groups.
Resource group templates are particularly useful in a SaaS environment where WebLogic Server MT activates the same applications and resources multiple times, once per domain partition. Some of the information about such resources is the same across all domain partitions, while some of it, such as JMS queues and database connections, varies from one partition to the next. WebLogic Server MT activates the application suite represented by the template differently for each partition, using the property values each partition defined.
For more information on WebLogic Server resource group templates, see Configuring Resource Group Templates in Using WebLogic Server MT.
Note:
If you are logged into a domain partition, navigate from the Domain Partition menu.
