Introduction

This post focuses on the creation, configuration and tuning of an initial SOA Suite 12.2.1.1.0 Domain.

The WebLogic Server is a necessary requirement, and must already be installed. For instruction how to install the WebLogic Server 12.2.1.1 please refer to my previous post:  WebLogic Server 12.2.1.1.0: Installation on the Linux OS

The following tasks will be implemented:

• Preparing the Operating System for the installation of the WebLogic Server 12.2.1.1, Installation JDK 1.8 and the WebLogic Server 12.2.1.1: WebLogic Server 12.2.1.1.0: Installation on the Linux OS
• Creating of database schemas
• Creating a SOA Suite Domain
• Post-Installation Tasks:
  • Configuring of components
  • Creating of Start & Stop scripts for the automatic start/stop of components
• SOA Suite Domain Tuning and Troubleshooting

The SOA/OSB Domain will be installed without BAM (different Domain) because of:

–    Oracle Best Practices and our experience

–    In order to stabilize the system (BAM is unstable at the moment)

The Domain will be created on two servers (OS OEL 6.7):

• host01.example.com
• host02.example.com

We will configure four clusters:

• OWSM Cluster (Oracle Web Services Management)
• ESS Cluster (Enterprise Scheduler Services)
• SOA Cluster
• OSB Cluster (Oracle Service Bus)

Installation SOA / OSB 12.2.1.1

Note: All tasks described in this chapter must be running on both servers: host01 and host02
