How to Discover WebLogic Topology by Shell

The WebLogic discovery process enables you to discover a complete WebLogic topology including J2EE applications, JDBC, and JMS resources. DFM first finds application servers based on the Shell protocol or endpoints (TCP Ports) and then discovers the WebLogic J2EE environment and components by shell.

This task includes the following steps:

1. Prerequisite - Set up protocol credentials

   This discovery uses the Shell protocol. Define credentials for one of the following protocols:

   • NTCMD protocol

   • SSH protocol

   • Telnet protocol

   For credential information, see Supported Protocols.

2. Discovery Workflow

   For details on running jobs, refer to "Module/Job-Based Discovery" in the Data Flow Management section of the UCMDB Help.

   1. Run the Range IPs by ICMP job to discover the target IPs.

   2. Run the Host Connection by Shell job to discover the target host and shell connectivity to it.

   3. Run one of the two jobs:

   • Host Applications by Shell to discover resources of the target host, including running processes.

   • JEE TCP Ports to discover service endpoint information. For job details, see JEE TCP Ports Job.

   4. Run the job JEE Weblogic by Shell. For job details, see JEE Weblogic by Shell Job.
