Building a backup admin server.....need urgent support

Scenario :
Box (Machine) A has admin server and few manager servers for domain “test”. And few managed server on box B. Managed server of box A and box B are currently handled through admin server on box A. Also node manager is configured to start and stop the servers of box A and box B.
Now in case, box A goes down physically. I want to have one back up admin server on box C,through which I can handle the managed server on box B.
For this I take steps:
Step1
Keep a frequent back of below mentioned folder on box C from box A.
1.     wlsHome \user_projects\domains\<domain name>\config
2.     wls home\user_projects\domains\<domain name>\servers\AdminServer\data\ldap
3.     wls home\user_projects\domains\<domain name>\security
Ref :http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs100/server_start/failures.html
Step2
Before starting the admin server on box C I change the admin listen port in config.xml to the hostname or IP of box C.
Step3
For node manager.
On box B, I need to point node manager to admin server to the box C.
1.     Edit startup. Properties in the <domain name>/server/<servername>. In each server folder.
2.     Need to uninstall and install again node manager server to listen the request from different host as by default it listen from localhost.
Ref : http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs103/nodemgr/starting_nodemgr.html
“By default, Node Manager listens only from the local host. If you want Node Manager to accept commands from remote systems, you must uninstall the default Node Manager service, then reinstall it to listen on a non-localhost listen address. See Reconfigure Startup Service for Windows Installations.”
I tried these steps but not working. Can any help me out . Am I missing any steps or going in wrong direction for my goal. Is there any alternative way to do this ???
Waiting for a response.

Creo que los pasos 1 y 2 esta bien, pero el paso 3 no es parte de la configuración/procedimiento para alcanzar el objetivo, no obstante, si es necesario y debió haberse aplicado anteriormente. Otra cosa más, no estoy seguro de los cambios que estas haciendo en el paso 3 > 1. "Edit startup. Properties in the <domain name>/server/<servername>. In each server folder.", ¿podrías especificar los cambios que estas aplicando?
¿Porque dices que no funciona?, ¿Cuales son los errores que obtienes?
Steps 1 and 2 are fine, I think step 3 is not part of the configuration/procedure to reach the goal, however, this is necesary and should have been applied previously. One more thing, I'm not sure the changes you are doing in step 3> 1. "Edit startup. Properties in the <domain name>/ server/<servername>. In each server folder.", Could you specify the changes you are applying?
Why do you say It doesn't works?, what are the errors you get?

  • Does Admin server need Oracle Client

    I have a setup where the admin server resides on a different server than the managed server. To setup a Data Source/connection pool does the admin server need to have the Oracle client setup for the data source to work which is targeted ONLY to the managed server.
    Thanks

    JohnHi John, no, and we recoomend highly that you use the oracle driver
    in the thin mode, which needs no Oracle client installation at all.

  • Does the Weblogic Admin server need to be running after initial Connection?

    Initially, I require a login to the Weblogic Admin Server.via my code
    I am using JMX to monitor weblogic and all works great..I am trying to close the Admin Server and code blows up. Do I need the Admin Server running all the time?
    Do you know of a way to connect initially to the Admin to get all Nodes, thendisconnect from Admin and monitor Nodes only? Thank you.

    I notice you didn't get a response when you asked this two weeks ago, either. You'd probably get a better response if you asked this on a WebLogic forum.

  • Clustering Admin server

              Hi,
              Here is my question!
              I have a setup like this, 4 solaris unix machines, 1 Multi-Host Clustered Domain
              for all 4 boxes. 1 Admin server & 16 Managed servers (4 managed servers on each
              solaris box)so 4X4 = 16. i.e.
              Machine A
              Admin
              server 1, server 2, server 3, server 4
              Machine B
              server 5, server 6, server 7, server 8
              Machine C
              server 9, server 10, server 11, server 12
              Machine D
              server 13, server 14, server 15, server 16.
              Now All the 16 servers are in cluster. Everything is running and perfectly fine.
              All load balancing, replication etc. are fine. Now for some reason, My Machine
              A is down and not going to be up for a day. All the other running instances in
              the boxes B,C & D are running and fine. Now I have to deploy an application to
              that cluster and also to see the console for monitoring. Whatz the way??
              Is this possible for a domain to have a backup Admin server. Any clustering for
              Admin server and backup admin servers. ?????
              Please let me know
              thanks

              Hi,
              I actually have a question..rather than an answer. It might be quite trivial.
              What situation makes it necessary to have 4 managed servers on one machine. Does
              it not put a lot more overheads on the machine.
              Thanks in Advance.

  • Help needed in building a demo mobile app for DRM support using Content server 4

    Hi all,
    I am building an application for the blackberry to support reading of pdf and ebuf content similar to Adobe Digital Editions with DRM support . I came to know about the Adobe RMSDK .
    Following is my understanding regarding my implementation , please correct me if i am wrong:
    The DRM implementation on a mobile device for Adobe should satisfy the following criteria:
    1. The mobile device should have a application which uses the Adobe RMSDK.
    2. The publisher or the server app should install and run the content server 4
    3. An acsm file which contains the rights data should be saved stored at the adobe server and should be downloaded by the mobile client.
    4. The urls in the acsm xml file will be used to fetch the content for the ebook.
    I have the following querries:
    1. Is there an implementation of the RMSDK for java to run on blackberry.
    2. Is Adobe content server 4 free to install, if not do we have a test server for this purpose.
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Hi Jim,
    Thanks for your kind reply. I have some more querries
    Suppose if we have a client implementation of the Adove RMSDK in java,  please help answer these querries:
    1. How do we connect to the cs4 server (what will be the flow of data, is there a documentaion regarding the protocol to be used between the mobile client and the cs4 server in order to communicate and fetch Rights protected ebuf and pdf data.
    2. The link http://www.adobe.com/products/digitaleditions/library does not give me information of how to use this library to store by ebook data and fetch  drm data from the mobile client and the protocol/communication followed.
    3. How do i go forward in evaluating acs4( getting a test version of cs4 and using it ). We want to build a demo app in blackberry.
    thanks

  • Do we need to restart admin server evertime we restart slapd process

    Hi all !
    For system stability Do we need to restart admin server evertime we restart slapd process ?
    -

    Recently i had some core dump file on my /var/core directory which is actually filling out the filesystem.
    When i send core dump file to sun support they told there is a bug in Directory server BUG ID 4992815.
    But to fix the core dump every time need to restart slapd process i need to restart the admin server.
    It seems strange to me ...but if its how i can fix the dump then i need to follow thier instruction...
    Just curious whether other people also following the same ...
    Thank you for your response....

  • Can no longer send mail after upgrade. Says server needs password. Server says down not support a password. Any thoughts?

    After up grade I can not send mail from road runner account. Message says server needs password, server says it won't support a password. Any thoughts?

    UPDATE: I was able to set up the account using Eudora, and it worked fine. I guess it means that there's something funny happing with Mail.

  • Need to write start up scrits for weblogic admin server on Linux

    Hi,
    I am new to weblogic i have Installed wls1035 on Linux Created Managed servers,but i want write start up and stop scripts for weblogic admin server please let me know how to write.
    My weblogic server is Running on Linux..please help me its very urgent for me.....

    Put something like this into a startAll.py file (excluding the ---):
    startNodeManager(verbose='false',NodeManagerHome=localWlsHome + '/common/nodemanager',ListenPort=5556,ListenAddress=localhost)
    nmConnect('weblogic','password','localhost','5556','domain_name')
    nmStart('AdminServer','/path-to-domain-dir')     
    nmStart('my_server_1','/path-to-domain-dir')     
    nmStart('my_server_2','/path-to-domain-dir')     
    nmDisconnect()
    exit()
    source /path-to-domain-dir/bin/setDomainEnv.sh
    $JAVA_HOME/bin/java weblogic.WLST startAll.py
    Similar for stop (stopAll.py):
    nmConnect('weblogic','password','localhost','5556','domain_name')
    nmKill('my_server_1')     
    nmKill('my_server_2')     
    nmKill('AdminServer')
    stopNodeManager()
    exit()
    source /path-to-domain-dir/bin/setDomainEnv.sh
    $JAVA_HOME/bin/java weblogic.WLST stopAll.py
    You might have issues with the Nodemanager having an autogenerated username and password. That can be fixed like this:
    In the AdminServer console, click on Lock & Edit
    In the AdminServer console, go to <domain> -> Security -> General -> Advanced and update the Node Manager username and password to use the same values as the WebLogic server.
    In the AdminServer console, apply the changes.
    Start WLST: $WL_HOME/common/bin/wlst.sh
    Connect to the AdminServer: connect('weblogic','password','t3://<adminserver-hostname>:<adminserver-port>')
    Enroll: nmEnroll('/path-to-domain-dir')
    Exit WLST: CTRL^D
    You might also look into customizing the nodemanager's property file:
    Edit $WL_HOME/common/nodemanager/nodemanager.properties
    StopScriptEnabled=true
    CrashRecoveryEnabled=true
    StartScriptEnabled=true

  • ColdFusion Builder Admin Server Components Problem

    After downloading the admin server components, extracting them into their appropriate directories, and executing the adminstart.bat file, I'm receiving the following error:
    This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found.  Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
    I did a search for that file and found several instances throughout the coldfusion8 directory.
    I am running Coldfusion Standard                  8,0,1,195765 on Windows 2003.
    Thoughts?

    I have started it using the adminstart.bat file.

    Think the problem has to do with the second line...shouldn't that be "security.properties"?

  • Errors & warnings when using the Admin Server Console - Help Needed

    hi,
    i just installed weblogic 12c and created a new domain which contains an adminServer and managedServer under
    one cluster.
    after finishing the installation, i started the Admin Server and afterwards started the admin server console.
    and i got the next warning and errors.
    the warning look like this:
    <20:00:35 IST 23/03/2012> <Warning> <Munger> <BEA-2156203> <A version attribute
    was not found in element "web-app" in the deployment descriptor C:\Oracle\Middle

    bute is required, but this version of the WebLogic Server will assume that the l
    atest version is used. Future versions of WebLogic Server will reject descriptor
    s that do not specify the Java EE version. To eliminate this warning, add an app
    ropriate "version=" to element "web-app" in the deployment descriptor.>
    the errors look like this:
    <20:01:51 IST 23/03/2012> <Error> <netuix> <BEA-423158> <No content found at con
    tentUri = /PortalConfig/security/providers/AuthenticatorConfigCommon.portlet.>
    what is the problem? anyone knows?

    If you want to have an weblogic environment with one domain having server spread across different physical machines , then you will have to perform the installations of the weblogic server separately on all the machines . Also make sure that the version of the Weblogic server you are installing is same across the machines and the directory structure is also exactly same.
    In short you will have to perform the below steps :
    1 : install the weblogic server on all the machines with exactly same version and same dir structure .
    2 : Create domain on MachineA providing all the details of the Managed Server and different machine hostnames.
    3 : Start the Admin Server on machineA and then shut down it.
    4 : execute the WLST pack command on MachineA creating a domain template JAR file.
    5 : copy the create jar file on all the Machines ( B , C , D ) you have to distribute your domain.
    6 : Execute the WLST unpack command on all the machines ( B , C , D ) .
    7 : Execute the WLST nmEnroll () command on all the machines ( B, C , D ).
    8 : Start the Managed Servers on all the machines ( B , C , D )

  • Urgent: Can not start admin server

    I installed Sun One directory server 5.1 on Solaris 8 01/01 version patched with Solaris 8 patch cluster.
    In installation, there is error message
    Can't start Admin server [home/iplanet/servers/start-admin > /var/tmp/aaax0aOBb 2>&1] (error: No such file or directory)
    idskture only shows one ERROR message:

    But it seems fine since I reinstalled Solaris 8 01/01 release and install 5.1sp2 and with the same error message running idsktune, the installation of 5.1 but works fine.
    Do you have any idea why the installation fail before I reinstlall Solaris 8?
