This guide describes how to set up and deploy Extended Server on Weblogic Server 12c.
This guide assumes that the following components are installed:
For information on how to install these consider the server preparations and consult Oracle's installation documentation.
The process of installing the middle tier starts with accessing the deployment / build structures. You use the Install tool to select components to go into the applications server, and having done all the necessary configurations earlier in the preparations and building of the system, the options available are probably the ones that should be selected by default.
The Install tool will assemble the Java EE applications, configure Weblogic for IFS Applications and finally deploy the Java EE application to the application server.
Finally you start the application server and verify that it runs as supposed. There are also some stand-alone servers that you will start in the middle tier e.g. Batch- and Connect servers etc.
Operating system that supports the application server in mind must be installed prior to continuing. Application Server versions supported by IFS are listed in the product certification page for IFS Applications.
The General Middle Tier Considerations must be met. Make sure the OS Pre-Installation Requirements are all met.
After installing Weblogic, you need to start the Node Manager on the machine your are going to run IFS installer.
