Weblogic Clustering

Hi,
I would like to know how to set up Weblogic (8.1 SP2) clustering.
I have two servers, I want to make one as the admin server and the other as the managed server.
I would like to know the entries that I make for the clustered server setup while I am choosing "custom" mode of creating a domain. What goes in multicast IP address, under node manager, under its port.
how to deploy a webapp to a managed server from an admin server?
If any one of you has done this please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Rommel Sharma.

Hi,
It is depend on what kind of Load Balancer you are using.
Many H/W Load Balancer has their own server fail detect method.
Most of them are checking the port is reachable.
If the port is not reachable, then the L4 send the request to another port.
Some L7 switchs can detect the URI. and check the index page or other web page.
You don't need too much care how to set the H/W load balaner exactly act like a plug-in module.
Best Regards,
Luke Ham

OIM installation on RAC DB and Weblogic clusters

I understand its a very broad question but tell me the links/resource/metalink documents references for installing OIM 9.1.0.1 on Weblogic clusters and Oracle RAC DB clusters ? (either or both)
Is OIM 9.1.0.1 compatible with Oracle RAC DB 10gR2 ? I have checked the configuration matrix but still not sure on it. Can anybody confirm this ?
I have gone through the basic installation guide for the same but I still find loopholes in it. If anybody has made any document for his/her purpose, please let me know, very appreciative!
It does not give information about the schema design needed for OIM on Oracle RAC DB like -
1.) During installation of OIM, we need to specify the "User Name" and "Password" of the database account that is created for Oracle Identity Manager.
So is that user needed to be created with all the necessary privileges in RAC DB before starting this installation ?
Thanks in advance,

Hey there,
I have checked the certification matrix but still just wanted to specifically know about compatibility of OIM 9.1.0.1 with Oracle RAC DB 10.2.0.2 ? Do they go hand in hand ?
Thanks,

Calrification for Weblogic Clustering

Our J2EE application is multitiered where JSPs&Servlets(Frontend) runs in a weblogic instance and EJBs(Backend) runs in two weblogic instances which are clustered. Here the Frontend weblogic instance and one of the clustered Backend weblogic instance are running in a same machine A and the other clustered Backend weblogic instance is running in another machine B. We had tested the following cases for Failover
Note :
please consider "JSPs&Servlets" as Frontend and "EJBs" as Backend.
Weblogic 9.2 and stateless session beans are used.
Frontend is not clustered.
Case 1:
We are doing a transaction where the request from frontend goes to one of the of the Clustered Backend weblogic instance. Before the transaction gets completed this backend weblogic instance is made to shutdown. The transaction has failed over to the another available Clustered Backend weblogic instance . The transaction had completed successfully and the Failover is working fine.
Case 2:
We are doing a transaction where the request from frontend(running in Machine A) goes to the Clustered Backend weblogic instance running in the Machine A itself. Before the transaction gets completed, the machine A is made to shutdown (i.e. both frontend and backend weblogic instance shuts down at the same time). Here the transaction has failed and could not able failover to the other available Backend weblogic instance .
Please clarify whether weblogic cluster supports the Backend failover when both the Frontend and Backend are brought down at the same time?
Any weblogic CLustering experts, please clarify...

Hi Jayesh,
Thanks very much for your reply.
I understood that your reply "You might want to consider collapsing front end (servlet & JSP) and back end (EJB) servers into a single WebLogic server for better fail over support." means that JSP&Servlet and EJB should be combined to form a single archive(EAR) which has to be deployed in single weblogic instance.
Please check whether my assumptions are correct for your suggestion on better failover.
1.The cluster configuration of JSPs&Servlet(web.xml) and EJBs(ejb-jar.xml) running in single weblogic instance will be similar to the cluster configuration of JSPs&Servlet(web.xml) and EJBs(ejb-jar.xml) running in separate weblogic instances. i.e All the configurations are same, but instead of the application running in separate weblogic instances, it will run in single weblogic instance.
2.In the URL for specifying the EJB connection from the JSP&Servlet, the cluster IP address should be used.
You have mentioned that if EJB client is not alive, the failover will not work. Please clarify how the failover will work in this case only(JSP&Servlet and EJB running in single weblogic instance and clustered).
Thanks,
Thiyagu

Weblogic clustering with IIS as web server

          Hi,
          I have two IIS servers and two machines for weblogic. I am planning to have
          a weblogic clustering. I have seen the documentation online. But has some questions
          for which dint find any answers.
          Somewhere on the newsgroup I read , if we will be having IIS proxy-plug in we
          do not need the DNS setup. Is that true ?
          How many IPs and other things I need to do this setup ? What is admin server &
          its role ? configuration how to do it is not avaliable in the documentation.
          Could someone help ?

Can we configure webserver to loaedbalance multiple weblogic clusters?

Can we configure webserver to loadbalance to multiple weblogic clusters?
E.g. Web server X -> Cluster Y & Cluster Z
In the plugin documentation it is not explicit that you can or can't do so.

Weblogic clustering steps

Hi Everybody, I'm new to weblogic so I need your help to know each and every steps that are involved in setting up the weblogic on two different boxes and cluster it finally this cluster should be load balanced with apache server.
I would like to explain little more about the infrastructure that i want to have.
1) Two weblogic servers runs on two different machines (on Linux box).
2) I'll have apache in one server.
3) Each weblogic will have its own adminserver.
4) Both the weblgic servers will connect to same DB
5) Client will connect to the Loadbalancer which is apache server(On windows box).
6) Apache server has to load balance the requests coming from client between the two weblogic servers.
7) I've weblogic12c installed in the servers.
Please let me know if any info that you need for clarifications.
Thanks in advance.

Weblogic clustering - Non session objects

Hi,
I have an app that doesn't have any HttpSession object or EJBs. We have only one servlet for entire application that works as a controller and we store all the information regarding the user in the servlet instance variable as cache. None of our objects are Serializable. Can i deploy my application on weblogic cluster. Will weblogic support clustering for thsi kind of applications. We have only one servlet and all other classes are normal java classes. No JSP, EJB etc. No HttpSession or ApplicationContext of servlets are being used.
thanks,
webbie.

Hi,
The There are basically two reasons ...for which we want Clustering:
<h3><font color=maroon>Reason - 1): Failover</font></h3>
This feature needs HttpSession replication...Failover means if a Userhas Logged in to our application and accessing some pages ...then his HttpSession Replica will be available in a Secondary WebLogic Server so...even if his Promary WebLogic Server Goes Down ...His Session data will not be lost...and client can interact with the Application without any Interruption. To Enable Failover in your Clustered Application you need to provide the <persistent-store-type>Tag inside your "<Application>/WEB-INF/weblogic.xml"
   <session-descriptor>
      <persistent-store-type>replicated</persistent-store-type>
   </session-descriptor>
<font color=red><b>NOTE:</b> until u dont put <persistent-store-type> Tag inside your "weblogic.xml" file...by default HttpSession replication will be disabled....because it's default value is "inMemory" means even If your Application has HttpSession ... it wont be replicated on Secondary Server.</font>
<h3><font color=maroon>Reason - 2): LoadBalancing</font></h3>
This feature has NOTHING TO DO with HttpSession replication (in general). It means simply different clients request will be processed by different WebLogic Server Instances in a Round-Robin fashion. I Think this is what you want to implement. Because your application is not using any HttpSession .So thet Application willl not have any Failover. But LoadBalancing is the Default Feature of WebLogic Cluster. U need not to do anything additionally to Achieve it.
<font color=green><b>Note:</b>Means Without Having HttpSession Objects in your Application Still u can have WebLogic Clustering Feature to get the benifit of LoadBalancing.</font>

WebLogic clustering within the box

          Folks,
          Is it possible to do weblogic clustering within a single UNIX box?
          For example,
          UNIX Machine A(10.9.44.25) have two domains mydomain1 and mydomain2.
          mydomain1 - AdminServer7001 - ManagedServer8001
          mydomain2 - ManagedServer9001
          Is it possible to clustering for ManagedServer8001 and ManagedServer9001?
          Thanks

          You can create a clustered environment on a single machine; limits to the numbers
          of managed servers within the cluster is a variable based on available machine
          resources (memory, file handles, kernel limits, etc.).
          You cannot create a cluster though as you suggest above. Recall that clusters
          are defined within a single domain, and you cannot create a cluster that spans
          (is split) between domains.
          To create a cluster on a single machine, you just need to keep the rule that each
          managed server has a unique ipaddress:port combination for its listening address.
          On a single machine you have the option of multi-homing the machine (eg multiple
          IP addresses on a single NIC) or use a single address, but use different ports;
          or use a combination of both.

Weblogic Clustering Advantages + Disadvantages

Hi All,
I have a query about Weblogic clustering concept. First of all I would like to explain my environment architecture.We have SOA and ADF domain configured with High Availability mode in weblogic level.
ie SOA is installed in two servers ( primary & secondary ) and ADF respectively. So total 4 servers.
My Query is : Just want to know about advantages and disadvantages if we configured both Primary and
Secondary in Cluster mode and Stand alone mode in Weblogic.

Hi,
There are no disadvantages as such with the clustering feature.
But you can go through the basic advantages that a clustering feature provides:

Replicated DB & WebLogic Clustering

Hi All,
          In the documentation I've seen on WebLogic clustering, the individual application servers always connect to a single DB back-end. My
          distributed application is connecting to a replicated DB and I would like each of the application servers to connect to a different DB instance. Is
          this possible with WebLogic? How would I set upt the connection pool/data source to achieve this?
          Thanks.

Weblogic clustered server instance failed in less than 30 hours with no load/utilization

system description: hpux 11, jdk 1.2.2_03, weblogic 5.1 sp1, two clustered
instances on one box, fail over to second box on shared file system.
problem:
in our custom weblogic monitoring scripts, we run the weblogic ping command
every ten seconds with the following command:
java weblogic.Admin t3://10.7.192.103:7001 PING 10 56 system weblogic
this weekend, both of our instances failed at one point and returned this
error message multiple times:

at weblogic.Admin.connect(Admin.java:133)
at weblogic.Admin.main(Admin.java:216)
our monitoring scripts successfull revived the instances, but there is a
problem with this.
problem: there was no load or utlization of the weblogic server instances
at the time of the failure. both instances had only been up for about 30
hours when they failed. is this due to weblogic instability? i hope not.
a max uptime of 30 hours doesn't say much for the reliability of the product
especially since there was zero utilization...

This looks to be a bug (obviously). I will have someone take a look and

Issue with Distributed Queue and WebLogic Clustering

Hi, When a message is received by distributed queue, MDB is processing the message on two managed servers. There seems to be issue with clustering and the physical queues present on both the managed servers are receving the message.
Our environment configuration details are as below:
One Web logic Cluster with 2 nodes (2 managed web logic servers).
One MDB deployed on the cluster listening to a queue with JNDI name “xng/jms/CODEventsQueue”
One Distributed queue with two members on the two nodes of the cluster, and with JNDI name “xng/jms/CODEventsQueue”
Two members of the distributed queue deployed on two JMS servers, which are separately deployed on each managed server .
And the distributed queue is deployed on the cluster.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Sampath

It is not clear to me how you concluded that "both the managed servers are receiving the message". Did you monitor the queues' statistics, or did you see both MDB instances received the same message?
It looks like that you using a weighted distributed queue. Do the two physical queues that compose the distributed queue have their own JNDI names? If so, what are they?
Have you tried to use a uniform distributed queue and see if the same behavior shows up?
You can find more about uniform distributed destination at
http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs103/jms/dds.html#wp1313713
BTW, which WebLogic Server releases are you using? Could you provide the distributed queue configuration?
Thanks,
Dongbo

Using weblogic clustering to improve permance in J2EE applications

I'm wondering if someone can help me to figure out a solution to some performance issues already existing in my Weblogic-based application.
          - Current configuration: 2 weblogic domains where each domain contains it's own weblogic instance and each instance is running different applications and all running in the same computer. I'm not using clustering.
          Configuration described above have performance issues, so I would like to receive tipical recommendations to improve performance including a change of the configuration of weblogic servers. One of my ideas is to use clustering as follows:
          Have each J2EE app described above running on their own computer, where each computer includes one weblogic domain with two instances of the same application with clustering enabled for fail-over and load-balancing. This idea is makes some sense, or I'm suggesting a very bad idea ?
          thanks for your help

I'd first need to understand what is causing the performance issues. ie what is the factor limiting your performance? Are you at 100% CPU? Are you waiting for a database to respond etc? Once we have that analysis, we can probably give you better advice on how to fix it.

Problems with weblogic clustering in 6.1 sp3

We have spent a lot of time trying to get our application deployed to
          a cluster using weblogic 6.1 sp3 and we consistently receive a failure
          when we attempt to start the managed server. This was not a problem
          with weblogic sp1--we got our application to deploy to the cluster
          successfully; although there was another weblogic bug there with
          clients accessing EJB clusters--we won't go into that here...
          We have tried this on both a Windows 2000 machine and an HP machine
          running weblogic sp3. The same error occurs on both platforms.
          The error in deploying our application to the cluster against weblogic
          sp3 looks to have to do with our custom security realm. Inside our
          custom realm we make use of a configurable providerUrl which we set to
          the cluster address/port. The custom realm makes a call where it
          passes in the providerUrl to:
               weblogic.management.Helper.getMBeanHome(..., providerUrl,...)
          When we have our providerUrl set to the cluster address/port--e.g.,
               t3://clustermember1:7001
          and attempt to start the managed server we get the error:
          Starting WebLogic Server ....
          Connecting to http://adminserver:7117...
          The WebLogic Server did not start up properly.
          Exception raised:

          When we have our providerUrl set to the admin server address--e.g.,
               t3://adminserver:7117
          everything starts up fine.
          Does anyone know why this would work on sp1 and not sp3 of weblogic
          6.1?
          We verified that all passwords are correct and everything else we
          could determine--any ideas would be helpful.
          We don't want the providerUrl to point at our admin server, we want it
          to point at the cluster address/port.
          When we get the managed server error, we received this error on the
          AdminServer:

          Thanks for any help.

Bottom line:
          In our custom realm we were not handling user guest correctly. Even if you
          have guest user disabled, Weblogic seems to have hard-coded guest to
          send messages to the cluster every-so-often. Not sure there--couldn't get
          an answer out of bea as to exactly why we see guest still being used...
          It seems that with sp3, the user guest interaction started happening earlier
          than it did with sp1, consequently making our realm code fail when trying to
          retrieve the guest user like someone we knew about in our system.
          Hence, our getUser and authUserPassword methods now return null for both
          users guest and system, making the secondary realm (file realm) be used to
          authenticate and resolve guest & system. BEA helped get our code fixed;
          however, we still don't have a lot of depth in understanding Weblogic
          server's use of guest...
          Apparently, in 7.x the guest & system user behavior and configuration is
          different also... We'll see when we start digging into that migration.

WebLogic clustering Environment ...

          Hi,
          I have an clustering environment setup ( and see several issues) and was wondering
          if anyone else is having the same kind or are seeing similar issues.
          1) Have a weblogic proxy on win2000 box
          2) have two weblogic instances on another win2000 box.
          3) have two weblogic instances on third win2000 box.
          4) have db and 2 app servers on HPUX box.
          Questions:
          1) Does anyone have this kind of environment running successfully?
          2) Our stuff runs but we see several problems :
          --- sometimes we see blank page which comes back with actual page upon hitting
          refresh
          --- Several images don't show up. It tries to look for images on proxy server
          cache, but does not find it over there. It is in fact in the cache directory on
          one of the weblogic instances.
          --- I log in as one user and then log in as another user, it still brings
          up the page for the previous user.
          Can anyone throw some light on this issues or config.
          Any help / effort is greatly appreciated
          Thanks
          Bharat


If you have a significant site (heavy enough traffic or HLA requirement to
          use >1 proxy) then I suggest putting the static stuff on the proxy or even
          outside of the WL loop altogether. Generally speaking, it is fine to put it
          on the proxy, though, like on Apache.
          Here's the problem, though -- most apps hard-code the relative locations of
          the images. I suggest using a JSP tag for "image path" that uses property
          (config) information to deref the location of the files. That way you can
          dev on a single workstation and deploy to a single server or cluster or
          cluster with a set of proxies out front.
