13. Architecture Lessons
– Multiple number of servers (optimal design)
§ All in one is possible but complex
§ The minimal configuration should have 3 servers: db, idm, ofa
– EDG documentation is for production with LBR and HA
§ A simplified topology can be achieved but requires architecture knowledge to
follow the documentation correctly, interpretation of the guides can lead to
delays and costly mistakes
– Validate HW prerequisites with Oracle FA sizing expert
– Plan with cloning in mind (use generic host names and URLs, do not
use local domain/storage options)

§ Monitoring tools
– Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c
– Jrocket Mission Control Client (dynamic optimization)
– Jconsol (Java monitoring, memory, locks, Mbeans)
– Admin Console (Weblogic Admin – start and stop WL, configure clusters,
services and connections, monitor apps, view logs)
§ Logging
– Set to hire levels only when needed then back to default, clean up log file often
§ Managed servers that are not used can be shutdown to conserve memory
§ May need to change JVM memory setting to allow more expansion
