Weblogic on a VMware

Does Oracle support Weblogic on a VMware virtualized platform. And also, how the licensing will be. Will it be for the hardware configured for the Virtual Machine, or do we need to give the license according to the host hardware.
Thanks

Will it be for the hardware configured for the Virtual Machine, or do we need to give the license according to the host hardware.Oracle's support position for products running on VMware is outlined in My Oracle Support Article 249212.1:
Oracle has not certified any of its products on VMware virtualized environments. Oracle Support will assist customers running Oracle products on VMware in the following manner: Oracle will only provide support for issues that either are known to occur on the native OS, or can be demonstrated not to be as a result of running on VMware. If a problem is a known Oracle issue, Oracle support will recommend the appropriate solution on the native OS. If that solution does not work in the VMware virtualized environment, the customer will be referred to VMware for support. When the customer can demonstrate that the Oracle solution does not work when running on the native OS, Oracle will resume support, including logging a bug with Oracle Development for investigation if required.
If the problem is determined not to be a known Oracle issue, we will refer the customer to VMware for support. When the customer can demonstrate that the issue occurs when running on the native OS, Oracle will resume support, including logging a bug with Oracle Development for investigation if required.
NOTE: Oracle has not certified any of its products on VMware. For Oracle RAC, Oracle will only accept Service Requests as described in this note on Oracle RAC 11.2.0.2 and later releases.Also, VMware is not regarded as a hard partition, so you would have to license the entire physical hardware running the VM.

  • [Blog] Monitoring WebLogic J2EE on VMware with VMware vCenter Operations (vCOps)

    Monitoring WebLogic J2EE on VMware with VMware vCenter Operations
    The Blue Medora vC Ops Management Pack for Oracle OEM was updated in early May (2014) to include enhanced support for Oracle WebLogic J2EE integration. All of the Oracle EM target types for WebLogic related components including WebLogic Server, J2EE Application Deployments, Oracle HTTP Server, as well as WebLogic Cluster are now available to be ingested into VMware vC Ops Enterprise Edition. 
    With the data available within these new vC Ops 'Resource Kinds', you have the ability to create WebLogic on VMware relationship views, WebLogic on VMware mashup dashboards, as well as leverage vC Ops anomaly detection and predictive analytics on your WebLogic J2EE landscape. Below are a number of example dashboards that were easily created using the WebLogic data available within the Management Pack.
    The first dashboard, the WebLogic on VMware Relationship View -- helps you visualize your WebLogic environment running on VMware all the way down to the VMware VM, ESX, and even Datastore level.   This can useful for diagnosing critical J2EE applications running within the vSphere environment -- allowing you to quickly discern whether a problem exists in the Oracle WebLogic layer or one of the VMware virtualization layers.

    Can you point me to recommendations on installing Hyperic on VMware virtual appliances?
    Is it as simple as treating the appliance as a Linux VM during installation?  Can vSphere be used to deploy Hyperic to a VMware appliance like vRA (non-IAAS)?
    Thanks,

  • Weblogic Physical Vs VMWare

    Hi,
    We are planning to build a new enterprise level platform running OSB/WLI/BPEL PM on Windows 2008. We are at crossroads on deciding whether to go for physical Vs Vmware. Since oracle licenses are tied to physical CPU cores, we want to utilise the most of it. So we are planning to have dedicated physical servers and all VM's running on them to be used only for this enterprise application. We understand certain pros and cons for going the VmWare path.
    Pros:Easier Manageability -
    1. A new VM can be easily created on an existing physical hardware in case of any issues.or future extension.
    2. Physical server capacity can be efficiently used. In case of OS failures or patching, the weblogic server can be failed over to another VM within the same physical server and the underlying physical server cpacity can be used.
    Cons :
    1. Extra CPU required for Virtualisation (ESX) layer.
    2. Oracle products are not certified but supported on Vmware platform. This could complicate the support procedures with Oracle.
    Looking for some guidelines from people who have taken this path before. Especially, how reliable is ESX for hosting an enterprise level weblogic platform? How much will be the performance degradation of using ESX. Is the flexibilty offered by Vmware worth enough to trade off for performance costs. As in our case we are not planning to use Vmware for multiple apps as we want to save on license costs and reserve physical server capacity only for this Weblogic app. So this takes away some of the inherent benefits of virtualisation like the physical server capacity consolidation.
    Thanks in advance!

    Our application is reasonably small and sized for 4 x 2 CPU servers.
    Moving to a virtual server blade environment would mean buying some decent blade servers which in our case would be 4 of 2 x quad processor blades which gives 32 cpu's.
    Our first assumption is that you could restrict the CPU usage in VMWare to emulate the 4 x 2CPU servers we have currently. The problem is, Oracle don't recognise software partitioning on VMWare, only on Oracle VM and if you run on VMWare, you have to license for the full VMWare blade evironment - all 32 CPU's worth. We buy those blades as we've got MS SQL Server, Introscope and other software to run.
    That's why the license costs rocket. We haven't done any cost benefit analysis, as at the moment there's no point. We have to buy the hardware and VMWare, and multiplying our license cost by 4 is too much to justify.
    We have an infrastructure team which are VMWare skilled, and if we are forced down the Oracle VM route and then have to provide the team with Oracle VM training as well. We should be OK with that, but is a shame. We use VMWare in a development environment and it's superb.
    There are lots of benefits to VMWare for load balancing, provisioning and all sorts of stuff I don't know the technical details for, but from what I've experienced in the development environment, Virtualization is the way forward.
    We're in the process of talking to Oracle about VM features, and hopefully do a comparison internally between that and VMWare.
    Oracle VM is also free which is a factor and there are also the support issues to consider.
    Hope that helps,

  • Weblogic console in VMWare

    Hello,
    We use Weblogic Server 7.0 in a VMware Workstation 4.0.1 build-5289. Th eproblem
    is when we invoke the server console in the browser, we cannot the the navapplet
    that should run on the left side of the screen. Reinstalling WLS doesn't solve
    the problem, neither a reboot of this server. Can anyone tell me if this is a
    typical VMware problem and has anyone came accross something like this ??

  • WebLogic Server in VMware environment

    Hi all,
    I'm re-engineering a WLS environment and am curious as to if anyone has any experiences with having WLS in a VMware environment. Any feedback or experiences is welcome.
    Thanks.

    There are some tips provided here (Middleware Snippets: WebLogic and Virtual Machine Sizing), it also included some external references to VMWare docs that should help you on the way.

  • Installing on VMWare image Windos 2008

    Hi everybody,
    We are planning to install the Service Registry 11gR1 (11.1.1.0) with Weblogic on a VMWare machine (Windows , either 2008 or 2003).
    Did anyone try this before ? Is this working or is it challenging / impossible ?
    Many thanks,
    CL

    Nikil,
    Which version on RHEL you are going to use and which version of VMWARE you as planning to install...
    If you google around , you can find a lots of notes on vmware and oracle installation.

  • [Blog] Using VMware vROPs to monitor Oracle Database and WebLogic.  Management Pack for Oracle EM, Hyperic Plugins, or Both?

    This blog post provides a suggested methodology for helping users of VMware vROps/vCOps decide which of the existing solutions, the vROps Management Pack for Oracle EM and the VMware vROps Hyperic Plugins for Oracle, should be used to monitor their Oracle workloads.
    It’s been a nearly a year since VMware transferred the vCOps Adapter for Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) to Blue Medora and since that transfer Blue Medora has released a number of major updates as well as rebranded it the Blue Medora vROps Management Pack for Oracle EM. Over that same period of time VMware has continued to evolve their Oracle-focused (Oracle Database and WebLogic J2EE) Hyperic agent-based plugins culminating most recently with a October 2014 update to the Oracle Database plugin that provides support for Oracle Database 12c.

  • Apex listener compatibility with VMware

    We have APEX listener configured on Tomcat server. There is a plan to move the tomcat server to virtual machines (VMware based). Migration will be made using Physical to Virtual (P2V) migration tools.
    Application Express 4.0.2.00.07 is installed on Database server.
    Software installed on Tomcat server:
    •     Windows 2008
    •     TomCat v 6.0
    •     Java version "1.6.0_25"
    •     Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_25-b06)
    •     Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode)java
    Is the virtual platform supported by Oracle?
    What could be problems if we move to virtual machines instead of current physical machine for Tomcat?
    Is there any Oracle documentation related to this?

    Assuming the VM environment is set up correctly, it should be totally transparent whether the underlying infrastructure is virtual or physical.
    However*, two observations...
    1. TomCat is not an option for the Oracle APEX listener. Valid options are GlassFish, Weblogic or Oracle OC4J (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex-listener/documentation/index.html). So, I don't think that you really have the APEX Listener running under TomCat. Do you mean that you have the mod_plsql for Apache configured to connect to APEX (do you see a "pls" in the URL to your APEX Server)? If so, this isn't actually the APEX Listener. It's just a (supported) configuration of Apache.
    2. Whether it will work without an issue and whether it is actually supported are different questions. I don't think Oracle will officially support VM implemented products unless the underlying VM is Oracle's own (rather than, for example, VMWare). I think you would probably still get good, (unofficial!), answers in this forum but, Oracle might tell you to get bent if you opened a tar.

    I increased the memory to 8GB, more than sufficient I guess. The problem is still there.
    I think the problem may be around some of the options I picked when installing.
    I picked the Sun JDK instead of the JRockit one.
    I picked development mode instead of production.
    Do you have this version of OIM running under vmware? If so what is the config?

  • Weblogic queues each request from Web Services client

    Hello everyone,
    Currently, I have a performance issue deploying a web services application on Weblogic 11g Patch1 (10.3.2).
    There are 40 clients which consume Web Services. After Weblogic queues each requests (40 requests) which takes about 2 or 3 minutes, then it starts to process the request (i.e. try to connect AuotVue Server with a servlet called VueServlet).
    I also found that during the process of queuing, even I ping the VueServlet or Web Services WSDL file in IE, it will take a long time to response.
    Look like all the weblogic resource is used to receive the requests and no resource is available for VueServlet.
    The problem happens when I deploy WS on windows 2003 server which is VMware machine with 3G RAM, and it doesn't happen when I deploy it on Windows 2008 server with 4 G RAM and duo cpu.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thank you very much.

    Maybe there are some problems with WebLogic and Windows 2003. See also this thread Oracle HTTP Server (OHS)  Installation Problem on Win 2003 Server SP2
    I think it would be handy if you file a support request.

  • VisualVM can't see monitor tab or app mbeans after move to new VMWare VM

    I've had a Spring 3.x application running on Solaris (5.10) in a VMWare VM for quite a while. My application registers some mbeans. I've been able to connect remotely to the VM from VisualVM and view data in the "Monitor" tab, and I've been able to see and manipulate my application mbeans in the MBeans tab.
    My server was recently moved to another VMWare VM, although the host name and IP address didn't change. We got it all working, I thought, until I noticed some odd behavior when I tried to connect to the VM from VisualVM on my desktop. When I first tried it, I thought it was working fine, but when I looked closer I noticed that there was no "Monitor" tab, and when I looked at the MBeans tab, it didn't have any of my application mbeans.
    I can run a local WebLogic instance, and I don't see these issues when I connect locally with VisualVM.
    It doesn't seem like it would be a firewall problem. The connection succeeded. In the "Overview" tab I can see all the basic property settings.
    Why would my remote connection have "degraded" functionality?

    I don't know if it matters, but I figured I should provide some other details of the differences between the "good" and 'bad" state.
    Concerning what groups of mbeans I see in the "Mbeans" tab, in the remote connection I'm not only missing the application mbeans from my application. I see that there are two other groups that are missing from the remote connection, although I don't know if that's significant.
    On a local connection, I see "JMImplementation", "Security", "<myappname>", "com.bea", "com.oracle.jdbc", "com.sun.management", "java.lang", and "java.util.logging". On the remote connection with the problem, I see "JMImplementation", "com.oracle.jdbc", "com.sun.management", "java.lang", and "java.util.logging".

  • Oracle support & VMware

    We've a customer that wants to run Oracle DB and Oracle WebLogic server that are virtualized using VMware.
    The customer is under the impression that Oracle support terms don't allow this.
    Based on a web search I just did this doesn't seem correct.
    What is Oracle's current support policy for these products on VMware? Are Oracle DB and Oracle WL server supported on VMware?
    Can you refer to an official policy document?
    marko

    You could read the following MOS note :
    Support Position for Oracle Products Running on VMWare Virtualized Environments ID 249212.1+
    Briefly, none of the Oracle products are currently supported on VMWare. If you have an issue, you first may have to reproduce it in a non-VMWare environment (in a supported env.) before raising a SR.
