ohs_createInstance

Use with WLST: Online

Description

The ohs_createInstance command creates a new instance of Oracle HTTP Server, allowing critical configuration such as listening ports to be specified explicitly or assigned automatically.

Syntax

ohs_createInstance(instanceName='xxx', machine='yyy', serverName='zzz', ...)
Argument Definition
instanceName

The name of the managed instance being created.

machine

The existing machine entry for the instance. This name (often <hostName>.myCorp.com) is set during creation of the WebLogic Server Domain. If you forget the name, you can check $ORACLE_INSTANCE/config/config.xml and look for the <machine> block. Alternately, in WLST you can find the machine name by running:

serverConfig()
cd('Machines')
ls()
listenPort

(Optional) The port number of the non-SSL server. If this value is not specified, a port is automatically assigned. Listen ports typically begin at 7777 and go up from there.

sslPort

(Optional) The port number of the SSL virtual host. If this value is not specified, a port is automatically assigned. SSL ports typically start at 4443 and go up from there.

adminPort

(Optional) The port number used for communication with Node Manager. If this value is not specified, a port is automatically assigned. Administration ports typically begin at 9999 and go up from there.

serverName

(Optional) The value of the ServerName directive of the non-SSL server. If this value is not specified, the host name of the machine and the listen port will be used to construct the value.

Example

The following example creates an Oracle HTTP Server instance called ohs1 that runs on the machine abc03.myCorp.com:

ohs_createInstance(instanceName='ohs1', machine='abc03.myCorp.com')
