These install instructions will provide a clean and fresh WebLogic Server 12 c installation in
the prod01 hostname.
It also covers some basic user administration in Linux that can be skipped if you already have
an operational system user.
Don't forget to set the correct file permissions with
umask before installing WebLogic Server 12 c .
Both JRockit and WebLogic Server were installed in the console mode option without any
graphical interface. Production environments are more restricted, and console mode requires
only a terminal; it is faster and does not need an X11 Server.
Generic installer is used to install WebLogic since it is the one that contains the native library
for x86-64. The native library is important because it enables the use of a native socket
reader that is much faster than the pure Java socket reader. This library enables what is
called the performance pack on WebLogic and is mandatory in a production environment.
The installation process is very straightforward and only copies the files to their directories.

Creating the WebLogic domain
With WebLogic Server 12 c installed, you can now create a new WebLogic domain.
The WebLogic domain is the central configuration entity of WebLogic Server. The domain should
have at least one WebLogic Server instance with the role of the Administration Server. The
Administration Server is the access point used for configuration, deployment, and monitoring.
More WebLogic Server instances can be created to be part of the domain. All other WebLogic
Server instances of the domain that are not the Administration Server are called the Managed
Servers. They should host the deployed applications and resources.
