Configuring the agent on Windows systems
You can configure the WebLogic agent on Windows operating systems by using the IBM® Cloud Application Performance Management window. After you update the configuration values, you must start the agent to save the updated values.
Procedure
- Click Start > All Programs > IBM Monitoring agents > IBM Cloud Application Performance Management.
-
In the IBM Performance Management window, right-click the
Monitoring Agent for WebLogic template,
and then click Configure agent.
Remember: After you configure an agent instance for the first time, the Configure agent option is disabled. To configure the agent instance again, right-click on it and then click Reconfigure.
-
Enter a unique instance name then click OK. Use only letters, Arabic
numerals, the underline character, and the minus character in the instance name. For example:
weblogic01.
-
Click Next on the Instance Name agent
configuration panel.
-
Enter the WebLogic Server Configuration instance template
settings.
Note: This section is not the WebLogic server connection instance configuration. It is a template section for setting what is used as the default values when you add the actual WebLogic server connection instance configurations beginning in step 6.See Table 1 for an explanation of each of the configuration parameters.Note: If you use Oracle WebLogic server 14c or later versions, it's recommended to use t3, instead of iiop in the Protocol field.
-
Press New and enter WebLogic server connection instance settings, then
click Next.
See Table 1 for an explanation of each of the configuration parameters.
- Click OK to complete the configuration.
- Copy the WebLogic security files into the WebLogic agent binary directory.
- For Oracle WebLogic server 12c or previous versions, locate the files wlclient.jar and wljmxclient.jar under ORACLE_HOME. For example, C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\wlserver\server\lib. For Oracle WebLogic server 14c or later versions, locate the file wlthint3client.jar underORACLE_HOME. For example, C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\wlserver\server\lib.
- Copy the files from step 8.a to the WebLogic agent binary directory.
- install_dir/bin.
- install_dir\TMAITM6_x64
where install_dir is the path where the agent is installed. The default install_dir paths are listed here:- /opt/ibm/apm/agent
- C:\IBM\APM\TMAITM6_x64
- In the IBM Cloud Application Performance Management window, right-click the instance that you configured, and then click Start.
