Systems Requirements - Weblogic 11g on Windows Server 2012

Hi,
We are migrating the Delivery Environment from RedHat to Windows 2012 Server. We use Weblogic 11g and I need some help to know about the system requirements for a Windows Server 2012 platform running Weblogic 11g, could you tell me the equivalent Windows platform (CPU/RAM) of a Linux RedHat with that system features:
RAM: 24GB
CPU: 2 MACHINES X 2 CORE
Weblogic 11g system requirements will be higher in Windows Server 2012 than in RedHat if we want to keep up a good performance?
Thanks!

Only 10.3.6 using jdk 1.7u15+is certified on Windows 2012.

The system requirements are here:

There is no benchmark information so I really cannot comment on performance.

  • Weblogic 11g on windows server 2008 - run WLST

    how to configure weblogic 11g on windows server 2008 to run a simple WLST script
    I managed to get so far on Windows to run a WLST script. Most examples are in Unix
    I am in Dos, and ran our set environment variables.
    Run java weblogic.WLST
    To use WLST in interactive mode:java weblogic.WLST
    I get as far as wls:/offline> connect('weblogic','weblogic','localhost:7001')
    This works,
    So now I am trying to figure out how to display the server state of the server, most examples are for unix.
    Would any one have one that shows the server state, number of connections, and the number of active threads or stuck.
    Just a a pointer would help me.
    Cheers

  • It is compatible Obi 11g  with Windows Server  2012 and Sql Server 2012?

    Hi every
    Please help with two questions.
    1. - Obi 11g is supported on Windows Server 2012 and SQL Server 2012?
    There a compatibility matrix which mention compatibility with versions 2012?
    2. - is feasible to install Obi 11g in separate server and install weblogic on another server?
    I appreciate the prompt response
    Regards
    Pedro

    Hi Pedro,
    As of November 2012 Compatibility Matrix released by Oracle for OBI 11.1.1.x Windows 2012 and SQL Server 2012 were not supported. It was supported on 2008 Windows and SQL Server.
    We can have weblogic and OBI server's on 2 different machines. The approach is to opt software only install. the link below will give more details:

  • Windows deployment services in windows server 2012 : operating system not found

    Hello,
    In order of learning WDS in Windows Server 2012, I created a simple test environment composed of :
    A Domain controler running WS 2K12 and hosting both DHCP and WDS services. (with the option of not listening port 67 checked while installing WDS)
    A test computer, with no operating system
    I also added a Windows Server 2012 Standard WIM file and added also (located in [DVD]\sources\install.wim), boot file image (located in [DVD]\sources\boot.wim)
    But now, when i start the client, it gives the following error:
    While i don't find any reliable solution on Internet, Im looking for your help if ever, anyone faced this problem and found a solution for it or not
    Thanks in advance!
    Lotfi BOUCHERIT

    I find it strange that client and server IP are the same. Is there any sort of DHCP relay agent running on your WDS server ?

  • Unable to Install Windows Server 2012 R2; system aborts and reboots after first blue Windows logo appears

    System:  Dell PowerEdge sc1420 with dual xeon and Adaptec 2420SA SATA RAID (supported by OS); 10 GB memory (2x4, rank 2, organization x4, in DIMM1 & DIMM2; 2x1, registered, organization x8, in DIMM3 & DIMM4)
    This computer is currently running Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise which was installed with no problems.
    Objective: clean install of Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard on an otherwise unused RAID array disk set.
    All attempts to boot from DVD result in loading of files (grey progress bar on bottom of screen), brief dark screen, then black screen with a blue windows logo for about 2 seconds and then a flash of about 10 lines of error notifications on a black screen
    for about 1/4 second (unreadable), and then a reboot of the computer.
    Coreinfo.exe confirms that cpus DO support NX and PAE; do NOT support VMX (virtual machine enhancements).
    Attempts to run memtest.exe from boot disk tool-menu startup result in an error message that the memtest.exe file is corrupt.
    Running memtest.exe from Windows 2008 R2 install disk results in all memory tests passed!
    Attempted booting with multiple DVD's (some +R, some -R, all verified) burned from .iso.  These DVD's were used successfully to install Windows Server 2012 R2 on an HP Pavilion.  Also changed DVD drives just to rule out DVD hardware. 
    Running CHKDSK from Windows 2012 R2 on HP Pavilion shows no problems; running CHKDSK from Windows 2008 R2 on the Dell system on the same disks shows some problems.  Running checkdisk on the Windows 2008 R2 install disk from the Windows 2008 R2 installed
    system shows no problems.  All disks burned and verified on same system.
    Also attempted to boot from USB thumbdrive with copy of DVD on it.  Same results: system loads files then reboots at first Windows logo.  So that would rule out disk quality issues per se??
    Started to try an upgrade rather clean install to see if any errors were announced.  None were announced as the system went through much of the process.  I aborted somewhere along the way before committing to the upgrade because 1) the most likely
    outcome was it would not boot after install (I don't really need the practice in restoring); and 2) even if it did reboot, having a system that can't be repaired by booting the install disk is pointless.
    All disks and raid arrays are recognized and usable by RAID controller card and by Windows Server 2008 R2.  Disks are within spec for use with Adaptec 2420SA (1TB @ 300).
    Is VMX (aka VT-x) actaully required for ANY install even though Hyper-V is not intended to be used?  If so, it is too bad that the Microsoft system requirements (
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn303418.aspx ) don't make that clear.  And lack of VMX support really doesn't explain the memtest.exe "corruption" issue. 
    Or is it maybe something unique about the files on 2012 R2 disk (or disk image on USB) that are causing some problem with the chipset processing?  But why?
    My vote would be for the latter of the issues, but I have no clue why or if it is remediable.  Suggestions? 

    So here is what I think is the final understanding of this problem:
    First, one additional piece of important information:  The computer successfully moves into and through the Windows Boot Loader phase and succeeding phase ONLY for Windows 8.1 32-bit, but NOT for Windows 8.1 64-bit nor for Windows
    Server 2012 R2 (only 64-bit).
    The Windows Boot Manager phase (which precedes the Windows Boot Loader phase) is either 32-bit or 64-bit (64 –bit for this case) and is loaded by the 16-bit stub program (Bootmgr) which starts in real mode. 
    Windows Boot Loader of course runs in either 32-bit or 64-bit (64 –bit for this case) according to the product being installed.
    By inference, the essential problem is occurring in conjunction with the loading of a WIM file to start the Windows Boot Manager. 
    The boot manager starts ok and generally shows its essential screens (Windows Boot Manager; Advanced Boot Options) or proceeds to load files for transition into Windows startup in the succeeding Windows Boot Loader phase (that doesn’t “boot” but rather
    loads the system).  This is best confirmed by the announced corruption of the memtest.exe file when selecting Windows Memory Diagnostic from the Windows Boot Manager Screen. 
    If allowed to continue loading files to pass control to the Windows Boot Manager, the type of abort and resulting immediate restart that occurs is that which you would associate with unhandled cpu exceptions (invalid instruction, memory out of range,
    wild interrupt, etc.) that most of us have not commonly seen for 20 years (since beginning to use well behave OS’s from Windows NT 3.1 and on).
    So, the problem obviously is due to a failure to properly mount the WIM file and/or properly access it (probably the latter) when running in 64-bit protected mode. 
    This is independent of the hardware on which the install disk is actually mounted (DVD or USB-flash), so it is NOT a hardware problem
    per se.
    Since the WIM is mounted early in the process, Boot Manager may well have loaded it using BIOS routines to access the physical device on which it resides rather than loading 32-bit or 64-bit drivers of its own. 
    Hence, if the BIOS does not “mount” the WIM in a way that is later fully compatible with access from the 64-bit systems being loaded, it could cause apparent file corruption. 
    If it is only partially incompatible some functionality may appear quite usable (like loading files) until later detected. 
    This is vague on my part, because the exact nature of the incompatibility cannot be readily determined from the information available. 
    But the consequence is the same: the system cannot boot from the install disk, either for initial installation or repairs.
    Incidental conclusion:  The 64-bit boot manager code for Windows Server 2008 does not exhibit this faulty behavior, but the 64-bit code for Windows Server 2012 does. 
    So the problem is not inherent with loading 64-bit server OS’s.
    Expectations:  If the system were to be upgraded using the features of the install disk while running an installed OS, say Windows Server 2008 R2, it might well succeed and yield a fully functional system upgraded to Windows Server 2012
    R2 (because the installed operating system is started from discrete files, not from a WIM file). 
    However, in order to perform a disaster recovery using Windows resources (such as image backups from Windows Server Backup), one would have to presumably boot from a Windows Server 2012 64-bit install disk or Windows Server USB recovery drive. 
    Of course we know that the Windows Server install disk will not boot and we can be fairly sure that the problem will migrate to any Windows Server USB recovery drive that is created. 
    My inspection of a Windows 7 System Repair CD shows that is based exclusively on boot.wim, not discrete files! 
    Of course a generated image for a WIM for Windows 2012 USB recovery drive
    might not have the flaw that drives this behavior, but it probably would.
    Problem conclusion:  A BIOS upgrade would be required for compatibility with Windows Server 2014 clean installation
    and any maintenance; and none is available from the OEM.
    Problem not resolved, but understood for future reference.
    Thanks to Tim whose comments helped me focus my thinking.

  • Requirement to have 3 hyper-v in Windows Server 2012 R2 Std

    Hi,
    I want to configure three Hyper-V in my Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard.
    1. ERP System
    2. Mail Server
    3. AD
    What requirement or license do I need to have?
    Thank You.

    as per my knowledge if you want to use 3 Application you can run one application on Host and other 2 Application on virtual instances.
    that is not accurate.
    As per MS documentation, if you run two virtual instances, the host (hypervisor) may only be used for hypervisor functions, it may not be used for applications.
    http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/about-licensing/briefs/virtual-licensing.aspx
    Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard
    All physical processors need to be licensed. Each license covers up to two physical processors.
    You may run the server software in one physical OSE and in up to two virtual OSEs for each license you assign. If you run all of the permitted instances the instance in the physical OSE can only be used to manage the virtual OSEs.

  • File systems available on Windows Server 2012 R2?

    What are the supported file systems in Windows Server 2012 R2? I mean the complete list. I know you can create, read and write on Fat32, NTFS and ReFS. What about non-Microsoft file systems, like EXT4 or HFS+? If I create a VM with a Linux OS, will
    I be able to acces the virtual hard disk natively from WS 2012 R2, or will I need a third party tool, like the one from Paragon? If I have a drive formated in EXT4 or HFS+, will I be able to acces it from Windows, without any third party tool? Acces it,
    I mean both read and write on them. I know that on the client OS, Windows 8.1, this is not possible natively, this is why I am asking here, I guess it is very possible for the server OS to have build-in support for accesing thoose file systems. If Hyper-V
    has been optimised to run not just Windows VMs, but also Linux VMs, it would make sense to me that file systems like thoose from Linux or OS X to be available using a build-in feature. I have tried to mount the vhd from a Linux VM I have created in HyperV,
    Windows Explorer could not read the hard drive.

    Installed Paragon ExtFS free. With it loaded, tried to mount on Windows Explorer a ext4 formated vhd, created on a Linux Hyper-V vm, it failed, and Paragon ExtFS crashed. Uninstalled Paragon ExtFS. The free version was not supported on WS 2012 R2
    by Paragon, if Windows has no build-in support for ext4, this means this free software has not messed around anything in the OS, I guess.
    Don't mess with third-party kernel-mode file systems as it's basically begging for troubles: crash inside them will make whole system BSOD and third-party FS are typically buggy... Because a) FS development for Windows is VERY complex and b) there are very
    few external adopters so not that many people actually theist them. What you can do however:
    1) Spawn an OS with a supported FS inside VM and configure loopback connectivity (even over SMB) with your host. So you'll read and write your volume inside a VM and copy content to / from host.
    (I personally use this approach in a reversed direction, my primary OS is MacOS X but I read/write NTFS-formatted disks from inside a Windows 7 VM I run on VMware Fusion)
    2) Use user-mode file system explorer (see sample links below, I'm NOT affiliated with that companie). So you'll copy content from the volume as it would be some sort of a shell extension.
    Crashes in 1) and 2) would not touch your whole OS stability. 
    HFS Explorer for Windows

    Ext2Read

    (both are user-land applications for HFS(+) and EXT2/3/4 accordingly)

  • Windows Server 2012 - Hyper-V - Cluster Sharded Storage - VHDX unexpectedly gets copied to System Volume Information by "System", Virtual Machines stops respondig

    We have a problem with one of our deployments of Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V with a 2 node cluster connected to a iSCSI SAN.
    Our setup:
    Hosts - Both run Windows Server 2012 Standard and are clustered.
    HP ProLiant G7, 24 GB RAM. This is the primary host and normaly all VMs run on this host.
    HP ProLiant G5, 20 GB RAM. This is the secondary host that and is intended to be used in case of failure of the primary host.
    We have no antivirus on the hosts and the scheduled ShadowCopy (previous version of files) is switched off.
    iSCSI SAN:
    QNAP NAS TS-869 Pro, 8 INTEL SSDSA2CW160G3 160 GB i a RAID 5 with a Host Spare. 2 Teamed NIC.
    Switch:
    DLINK DGS-1210-16 - Both the network cards of the Hosts that are dedicated to the Storage and the Storage itself are connected to the same switch and nothing else is connected to this switch.
    Virtual Machines:
    3 Windows Server 2012 Standard - 1 DC, 1 FileServer, 1 Application Server.
    1 Windows Server 2008 Standard Exchange Server.
    All VMs are using dynamic disks (as recommended by Microsoft).
    Updates
    We have applied the most resent updates to the Hosts, VMs and iSCSI SAN about 3 weeks ago with no change in our problem and we continually update the setup.
    Normal operation:
    Normally this setup works just fine and we see no real difference in speed in startup, file copy and processing speed in LoB applications of this setup compared to a single host with two 10000 RPM Disks. Normal network speed is 10-200 Mbit, but occasionally
    we see speeds up to 400 Mbit/s of combined read/write for instance during file repair.
    Our Problem:
    Our problem is that for some reason a random VHDX gets copied to System Volume Information by "System" of the Clusterd Shared Storage (i.e. C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\System Volume Information).
    All VMs stops responding or responds very slowly during this copy process and you can for instance not send CTRL-ALT-DEL to a VM in the Hyper-V console, or for instance start task manager when already logged in.
    This happens at random and not every day and different VHDX files from different VMs gets copied each time. Some time it happens during daytime wich causes a lot of problems, especially when a 200 GB file gets copied (which take a lot of time).
    What it is not:
    We thought that this was connected to the backup, but the backup had finished 3 hours before the last time this happended and the backup never uses any of the files in System Volume Information so it is not the backup.
    An observation:
    When this happend today I switched on ShadowCopy (previous files) and set it to only to use 320 MB of storage and then the Copy Process stopped and the virtual Machines started responding again. This could be unrelated since there is no way to see
    how much of the VHDX that is left to be copied, so it might have been finished at the same time as I enabled  ShadowCopy (previos files).
    Our question:
    Why is a VHDX copied to System Volume Information when scheduled ShadowCopy (previous version of files) is switched off? As far as I know, nothing should be copied to this folder when this functionis switched off?

    Please note:
    Please only answer our question and do not offer any general optimization tips that do not directly adress the issue! We want the problem to go away, not to finish a bit faster!

    Hallo Lawrence!
    Thankyou for youre reply, some comments to help you and others who read this thread:
    First of all, we use Windows Server 2012 and the VHDX as I wrote in the headline and in the text in my post. We have not had this problem in similar setups with Windows Server 2008 R2, so the problem seem to be introduced in Windows Server 2012.
    These posts that you refer to seem to be outdated and/or do not apply to our configuration:
    The post about Dynamic Disks:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee941151(v=WS.10).aspx is only a recommendation for Windows Server 2008 R2 and the VHD format. Dynamic VHDX is indeed recommended by Microsoft when using Windows Server 2012 (please look in the optimization guide
    for Windows Server 2012).
    Infact, if we use fixed VHDX then we would have a bigger problem since fixed VHDX are generaly larger then Dynamic Disks, i.e. more data would be copied and that would take longer time = the VMs would be unresponsive for a longer time.
    The post "What's the deal with the System Volume Information folder"
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2003/11/20/55764.aspx is for Windows XP / Windows Server 2003 and some things has changed since then. for instance In Windows Server 2012, Shadow Copies cannot be controlled by going to Control panel -> System.

    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/windowsbackup/thread/0fc53adb-477d-425b-8c99-ad006e132336 - This post is about the Antivirus software trying to scan files used during backup that exists in the System Volume Information folder and we do not
    have any antivirus software installed on our hosts as I stated in my post.
    Comment that might help us:
    So according to “System Volume Information” definition, the operation you mentioned is Volume Shadow Copy. Check event viewer to find Volume Shadow Copy related event logs and post them.
    Why?
    Furhter investigation suggests that a volume shadow copy is somehow created even though the Schedule for Shadows Copies is turned off for all drives. This happens at random and we have not found any pattern. Yesterday this operation took almost all available
    disk space (over 200 GB), but all the disk space was released when I turned on scheduled Shadow Copies for the CSV.
    I therefore draw these conclusions:
    The CSV Volume has about 600 GB of disk space and since Volume Shadows Copy used 200 GB, or about 33% of the disk space, and the default limit is 10% then I conclude that for some reason the unscheduled Volume Shadow Copy did not have any limit (or ignored
    the limit).
    When I turned on the Schedule I also change the limit to the minimum amount which is 320 MB and this is probably what released the disk space. That is, the unscheduled Volume Shadow Copy operation was aborted and it adhered to the limit and deleted the
    Volume Shadow Copy it had taken.
    I have also set the limit for Volume Shadow Copies for all other volumes to 320 MB by using the "Configure Shadow Copies" Window that you open by right clicking on a drive (volume) in Computer and then selecting "Configure Shadow Copies...".
    It is important to note that setting a limit for Shadow Copy Storage, and disabaling the Schedule are two different things! It is possible to have unlimited storage for Shadow Copies when the Schedule is disabled, however I do not know if this was the case
    Before I enabled Shadow Copies on the CSV since I did not look for this.
    I now have defined a limit for Shadow Copy Storage to 320 MB on all drives and then no VHDX should be copied to System Volume Information since they are all larger than 320 MB.
    Does this sound about right or am I drawing the wrong conclusions?

    There is something strange about the limits on the Secondary host!
    I have not in any way changed the settings on the Secondary host and as you can see, the Secondary host has a maximum limit of only 35 MB storage on the CSV, but it also shows that this is 10% of the Volume. This is clearly not the case since 10% if 600
    GB = 60 GB!
    The question is, why does it by default set a too small limit (i.e. < 320 MB) on the CSV and is this the cause of the problem? I.e. is the limit ignored since it is smaller than the smallest amount you can provide using the GUI?
    Is the default 35 MB maximum Shadow Copy limit a bug, or is there any logical reason for setting a limit that according to the GUI is too small?

  • Remote Desktop Services that require Native SQL Server Client in Windows Server 2012?

    I have somehow gotten really confused on this.. Is the Remote Desktop Connection Broker the only Remote Desktop Service that requires the SQL Native Client to be installed in Windows Server 2012 (r2) ?

    Hi,
    If you plan on configuring RDCB in HA mode then the SQL native client is required.  The other RDS role services do not require it.

  • Does Oracle 11g 32-bit  can run on Windows Server 2012 (64 bit) ?

    Hello!
    I´ve bought Oracle 11g Standard Edition One 4 years ago, (Release 1 11.1.0.6.0 )
    and installed on a Windows Server 2008 (32-bit)
    We ara planning migrate out BD to a new server with Windows Server 2012 (64-bits)
    Can i install and use that Oracle version on the new server ?
    or
    Can i download and use the same version @ 64-bit with the licence i have with the 32-bit version?
    or
    Do i need to purchase a new Oracle version specially for 64bits?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello, me again... (sorry for insist)
    4 years ago, we purchased and use an Oracle 11g Standard Edition One Release 1 ( 11.1.0.6.0) @ 32 bits, and runs very good on a winsvr 2008 @32 bits.
    I was told i can run Oracle without problems on a WinSvr 2008 @ 64bits
    So we'd like to move it to a new server (WinSvr2012 @64bits)
    So my question is
    * Can we download and use it legally a 64 bit version, or we need to purchase another licence?
    * If so, where can i download it?
    Thanks in advance

  • Creating System Restore Points in Windows Server 2012

    Searching for "Create a restore point" on Windows Server 2012, brings up a link that when clicked takes you to System Properties. Once there, there is no System Protection tab or option to create a system restore point. Windows Server Backup
    is installed and functioning.
    Is this feature available in Windows Server 2012? Was it replaced with Shadow Copies for Shared Folders?
    Thanks for any insight you can provide.

     HI,
    To create a system restore point, run msconfig.exe, that will launch a UI, click the tools tab, select system restore, that should invoke a UI which asks if you want to  restore to an earlier version or do you want to create a new restore point. I clicked
    "create a new restore point" The problem that I ran into is that when I click that button is I receive the error: can't find "C:\Windows\System32\rstrui.exe". That's the .exe which supports the "Create / restore point' processes. I
    posted a question about the missing .exe on the windows > windows 8.1 > Repair and recovery forum and was told to post it here. :>) The subject title of that post is "rstrui.exe Create a system restore point on windows server 8 Standard".
    That post documents the steps that I followed trying to create a system restore point. (FYI: I'm not trying to backup any drives. I know what a system restore point is and what backup is. They are two different animals). I want to create a restore
    point prior in order to prep for installing an App. So, If a problem occurs; the registry keys and app files can be backed out to some extent. BTW: Create system restore point on windows 8.1does work perfectly well, there's a different UI. I just didn't
    know where to post the initial problem.regards,Steve
