Relationships Between Templates

This section discusses the following topics:

WebLogic Server Resources as a Prerequisite

WebLogic Server resources must be set up in your domain before you can add resources from an extension template. When you select an extension template, the Configuration Wizard framework checks to make sure the required resources are available for you.

Relationships Between Templates

You can create a base WebLogic domain by using the predefined Basic WebLogic Server domain template, or you can create a Basic WebLogic domain and extend it incrementally using the extension templates. The following table shows the relationships between the templates and the domains created.

Files Typically Included in a Template

The basic files included in any template are config.xml and template-info.xml. There are additional files in the predefined templates, and a domain is created or extended based on these files. The following table describes the files typically included in a domain or extension template.

Table 6 Files Included in a Template 
Filename
Description
product component files
Various files used to complete the domain setup for a specific BEA product component. Such files may provide information for security and default database settings.
*-jdbc.xml
Sets up or extends a domain with JDBC system resources required by a product component. In a template, the *-jdbc.xml files must be located in the config\jdbc directory.
*-jms.xml
Sets up or extends a domain with JMS system resources required by a product component. In a template, the *-jms.xml files must be located in the config\jms directory.
clusters.script
Used to modify the Configuration Wizard framework’s default auto-configuration of a cluster. By default, resources are targeted to the cluster. You can unassign a resource from the cluster and then assign it to another component. To specify a target, you can use the following replacement variables:
  • %AManagedServer% — Any Managed Server
  • %AllManagedServers% — Comma-separated list of all Managed Servers
  • %AdminServer% — Administration Server name
  • %Cluster% — Cluster name
  • %ProxyServer% — Proxy server name
  • %HTTPProxyApp% — http proxy application definition
Note the following additional considerations:
  • You must use the name attribute of an object that is to be replaced.
  • You can use an asterisk (*) as a wildcard for “All.”
In a template, the clusters.script file must be located in the script directory.

Note: AquaLogic Service Bus overrides this behavior. For more information on the AquaLogic Service Bus Extension template, see the AquaLogic Service Bus Deployment Resources in the Deployment Guide.

config.xml
Sets up or extends the domain configuration. In a template, the config.xml file must be located in the config directory.
jdbc.index
Identifies the locations of SQL scripts used to set up a database. The file lists the scripts in the order in which they must be run. If the scripts are not contained in the template, but are located in the product installation directory, that directory can be represented by a tilde ( ~ ) in the pathname for the scripts, as shown in the following example:
~/integration/common/dbscripts/oracle/reporting_runtime.sql
Specifically, the tilde represents the directory path identified by the $USER_INSTALL_DIR$ variable in the stringsubs.xml file.
In a template, a jdbc.index file must be located in the _jdbc_\dbtype\dbversion directory, where dbtype is the type of database, such as Oracle, and dbversion is the database version, such as 9i.
In addition to listing the SQL files related to a data source, the jdbc.index file contains information about the categories associated with the data source. The default dbCategories that are available are:
  • ‘Drop/Create P13N Database Objects’ category associated with the p13nDataSource data source, which is a part of the p13n.jar domain template
  • ‘Drop/Create Portal Database Objects’ category associated with the "p13nDataSource" data source, which is a part of the wlp.jar domain template
  • ‘Drop/Create GroupSpace Database Objects’ category associated with the appsGroupSpaceDataSource data source, which is a part of the wlp_groupspacedb.jar domain template
All these template jar files are located in the BEA_HOME\wlserver_10.2\common\templates\applications directory.
security.xml
Used to create user groups and roles that establish identity and access to domain resources. You can create the default Admin user only through the security.xml in a domain template. However, you can create user groups and roles through the security.xml included in either a domain or an extension template.
startmenu.xml
Used to create Windows start menu entries.
startscript.xml
Used to create the *.cmd and *.sh files that are placed into a domain’s root and bin directories.
stringsubs.xml
Identifies string substitution values and files that will receive string substitutions during domain creation or extension. The files that will receive string substitutions must already be prepared with replacement variables. During domain creation or extension, the Configuration Wizard framework runs macros to replace variables with the appropriate string substitution, using information from BEA_HOME\common\lib\macrorules.xml, where BEA_HOME is the product installation directory.
template-info.xml
Provides template identification information, such as the template name, software version, type of template (domain or application), author, description, and so on.

 


Basic WebLogic Server Domain Template

Your product installation provides one predefined Basic WebLogic Server domain template. All other predefined templates are extension templates that you may use to add resources, services, and applications to a Basic WebLogic Server domain. You can easily create or extend a domain by using these predefined templates with the Configuration Wizard or WLST.

Generated Domain Output

The Basic WebLogic Server Domain template allows you to create a simple WebLogic Server domain. By default, when using the Basic WebLogic Server Domain template, you generate a domain that contains only the required components: an Administration Server and a single administrative user. Any required applications must be created and configured within the domain.

The following table defines the default directory structure and files generated by the Basic WebLogic Server Domain template. Unless otherwise specified, by default, the Configuration Wizard framework creates the domain in the BEA_HOME\user_projects\domains\base_domain directory. If you modify the default configuration settings, the output directory structure may be different from the structure described here.

Avitek Medical Records Sample Domain Template

By using the Configuration Wizard or WLST, you can easily extend a base WebLogic Server domain to create an Avitek Medical Records Sample domain. You accomplish this by adding the resources and services provided in the Avitek Medical Records Sample domain extension template to a base WebLogic Server domain.

For more information about the Avitek Medical Records sample application, see Sample Application Examples and Tutorials for BEA WebLogic Server 10.0.

Generated Domain Output

The following table defines the default directory structure and files generated after applying the Avitek Medical Records Sample Domain extension template to a base WebLogic Server domain. Unless otherwise specified, by default, the Configuration Wizard creates the domain in the BEA_HOME\user_projects\domains\base_domain directory. If you modify the default configuration settings, the output directory structure may be different from the structure described here.
