Step 6. Monitor Startup of the Managed Server
2. From the command line enter:
.$WL_HOME/server/bin/setWLSEnv.sh
java weblogic.Admin -url icebat4:7001 -username webogic
-password weblogic START rlserver1
Step 6. Monitor Startup of the Managed Server
If the server does not start, check the following logs:
(NODEMGR_HOME = $WL_HOME/common/nodemanager)
•
For Node Manager process events:
$NODEMGR_HOME/NodeManagerLogs/NodeManagerInternal/ directory
•
For managed server startup events:
$NODEMGR_HOME/NodeManagerLogs/domain_server name/ directory
Troubleshooting and Notes
•
If one specific server fails to start, test if the server starts in stand-alone:
cd into the domain directory and start the managed server with:
./startManagedWebLogic.sh rlserver2
•
PIDFileReadRetryCount defaults to 0 although it is documented in
nodemanager.properties to default to 1. Leaving PIDFileReadRetryCount
unchanged may cause unexpected behavior because the server might start but its
status may not be reported in the Admin console. You should set
PIDFileReadRetryCount to at least 1 to avoid error messages that may not be
relevant. A value higher than 1 may be needed on slower or busier systems.
•
ScavangerDelaySeconds defaults to 180, which is too low for the NonStop
server. 300 seconds is more appropriate. If you do not change the default, the
admin console may report failure even though the server started.
•
weblogic.security.SSL.ignoreHostnameVerification property.
Depending on how you used IP addresses and DNS names in the configuration of
your servers, this property might need to be set to "true" for the SSL connections to
establish between the admin and Node Manager and each servers. The BEA
knowledge base states that setting this property to true is needed when using the
demo certificates, However, in this sample we have used successfully both true
and false settings:
rlserver 1: GUI, configuration, Keystore & SSL, Advanced
option: "Hostname Verification = BEA Hostname Verifier"
This means weblogic.security.SSL.ignoreHostnameVerification =
false.
rlserver 2: GUI, configuration, Keystore & SSL, Advanced
option: "Hostname Verification = none"
