Install and configure ADF Development In Weblogic 12c

Installing and Configuring ADF development in weblogic 12c 

In this practice we will go through the installing the ADF and configuring the Domain for the web logic
Step 1
Start the installer  as the java -jar fmw_infra_121200.jar to install the ADF development it will install the web logic ..or if the web logic is already installed you can extend it

Step 2
Provide the Oracle Middle ware Home Location for the Installation

Step 3
Select the Installation type if it is the dev instnace select the fusion Middle ware infrastructure with examples

Step 4
Once the Prerequisite check's had been completed successfully then proceed to the next step

Step5
Check the installation summary and save the response file

Step 6
Once all the installation Process had been completed successfully then Proceed to next step

Once the summary page click finish to finish the installation

After completing the installation now we need to proceed to creation of the RCU for the ADF development follow the steps in this post for creating the rcu  http://orafapp.blogspot.ae/2014/06/creating-rcu-for-adf-development.html
After RCU creation we need to configure the weblogic Domain

Configuring  Domain in weblogic 12c

We need to run the config.sh to start the weblogic Domain Configuration

Creating New Domain in weblogic 12c for the ADF Development

Step 1

Click the create New Domain to start creating the new Domain and Provide the location of the New Domain to be stored 

The default of the New Domain will be MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/<Domain_name>

Step 2
Select the Templates which is used for the Domain Creation .. for the ADF we need to Select Oracle Enterprise manager,which has dependency of Oracle JRF ,and weblogic Coherence , the Base server weblogic Domain will be the default Domain template

Step 3
Specify the location of the application location for the new Domain the path will be like
MW_HOME/user_projects/applications/<domain_name>

Step 4
Create the master username and password for the weblogi Domain .. this user will be acting as the super user for this Domain
Name:=<Name of the Super User>
Password:=<provide the Password for the user>

Step 5

Specify the Development or Prod Mode  for the Domain

Step 6

Click the RCU for fill the data from the RCU

DBMS/Service:=Database service where the RCU had been installed 

Hostname:=Database Sever Hostname

Port:=1521

Schema_name:=<DEV_STB> Scehma created during the Rcu

Password:=<schema password> the password specified during the rcu installation 

and click the get RCU Configuration for Username and Password 

Check the information for the installer screen after clicking the get RCU Configuration .. the test and bin is successfull proceed to next step 

Step 7

If we have the Rac database as the data source then we need to Select the tick box for the data source and then configure the data source for the RAC database .. if it is single installation database  proceed to the next page

Step 8

check all the connections after configuring with the data source 

Step 9

If you decide to  configure all  admin server and Node manager and Manged server and deployments and services then you can click all the four or you can click the admin server and Managed server's Node manager will be default configured and then deployments will be deployed according to the templates in the admin server 

Step 10

Server name:=Name of the Admin server for this Domain

Listen Address:=ALL Local address to including all the virtual address which had been specified 

Listen Port:=7001

Enable SSl:= if we have the ssl certificate and we need to login with the https then we can enable the ssl

Step 11

 Provide the Node manager username and password ..and select the Per Domain Node manager or we can configure the Node manager later after  finish the complete configuration

Step 12

Create the managed server with the necessary details 

Server Name:=Managed Server Name

Listen Address:=All Local Address 

Listen Port  :=<No of the Port where the managed server will be Listened >

Enable SSL:=tick the check box if you have the ssl certificate

SSL Listen Port:=SSL Port if SSL is enabled

Server Groups:=Select from two different server groups according to the application deployment

Step 13

Add the cluster with the cluster name [In  this cluster all the managed server will be placed] we can create multiple cluster for a domain

Step 14

Place the managed server's in the cluster  if we have multiple cluster's then place the managed server according to the Project design 

Step 15

Specify the Coherence cluster name and the listen Port If the Coherence is enabled 

Step 16

Name:=Physical Host name [or] Virtual Host name of the server
Enable Post Bind GID:=Click the tick box
Post Bind GID:=Nobody is the default value[we need to specify the Group id of the primary group which is associated with the weblogic o/s owner
Enable Post Bind Uid:=click the tick box to Enable the Post Bind UID
Post Bind UID:=Provide the User id which owner's the Web logic Binaries
Node Manager Listen Address:=Local Host
Node manager Listen Port :=5556[Default but we can give the port number according to availability]
We can create virtual ip's and virtual host name for deploying the admin server and  managed server [1]as the virtual host name are not associated with any of the physical hardware of network[Ethernet] the failure of ethernet card will not have huge effect on the virtual host names..
[2] In future we need to scale the Web logic  managed server in to another physical server it can be easily packed and unpack in the new server as the managed server are not associated with any of the physical server 

Step 17

Assign the servers to the machines as the better Practice if you have the less managed server then assign the manged server in the separate machines  IF there are multiple managed server then assign one cluster's managed server to one virtual host

In this env we have create the two managed server's and we have assigned to the two different virtual host names and admin server is assigned to the ADMINVHN virtual host name\

Step 18

We can select the library files and deploy accordingly to our necessity in this practice we have selected the auto deployment [if we tick all the four in the Step 9 then we need to deploy we have unchecked the deployment and the services in the step 9 so it will be automatically deployed as per the template and check the summary page

Step19

once the configuration process completes the 100 % then click the next page

Step 20

Click Finish to Finish up the installation
