WebLogic Clusters
In this chapter we will cover the following recipes:
F Creating a WebLogic cluster
F Defining a Hostname/Alias for the Listen Address value
F Configuring HA WebLogic cluster parameters
F Using Unicast for cluster communications
F Using Multicast for cluster communications
F Installing Apache HTTP Server for the Web tier
F Using the Web Server Plug-in to load balance HTTP Requests to WebLogic cluster
F Defining a network channel for cluster communications
F Configuring high availability for Administration Server
Introduction
WebLogic clustering is a highly recommended configuration for production environments.
The WebLogic cluster provides reliability and high availability by distributing the requests
and the load to the WebLogic Server instance members of the cluster.
Using WebLogic cluster also facilitates the administration tasks because WebLogic Server
automatically distributes the configuration and deployment changes to all WebLogic Server
instances, including the distribution of the deploy file to all machines.
