Notes: Performance is in Internal Throughput Rate (ITR) ratio based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in a controlled environment. The actual throughput that any user will experience will vary depending upon considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user's job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and the workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will achieve throughput improvements equivalent to the performance ratios stated here.

System z Linux & WebLogic Install Prerequisites
WebLogic is referred to as Oracle WebLogic Server 11gR1 (10.3.2) and "Oracle WebLogic Server 11g“
Download from OTN the "generic" Oracle package installer (it is not specific to Linux on System z)
X-Term; RealVNC, TightVNC….others– www.realvnc.com– www.tightvnc.com
Red Hat EL 4 (UL7+), Red Hat EL 5 (UL3+) Novell SuSe 10 (SP2+) IBM Java 6 64bit (SR4 or higher) product is NOT supplied with
any of the Linux distributions, so you will need to download at the following url:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/linux/download.html Installation Modes : Console, Graphical, Silent (Linux for System z
Release Notes recommend using Console mode) Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) GUI interface to install

Component Installation Steps…
1.Preparation for Linux Install on System z (SLES10 or RedHat)
2.Install Novell SLES10 SP2 or RedHat Novell SLES10 used in examples that follow
3.Install IBM Java 6 64bit (SP7)4.Install WebLogic
Advanced Technical Skills, Americas

Installing Linux on System z – Step 1 (SLES10)
Linux must first be installed either standalone in a Logical Partition (LPAR) or under z/VM
This example will install Novell SuSe 10 SP2 Linux under z/VM
With a z/VM instance created:– a parmfile, kernel and an
initrd file are FTPed to z/VM
– These 3 files are then executed, and as part of the execution, we IPL the kernel in storage and start the install• In LPAR mode; we will mount
the 1st SLES10 CD #1 into the HMC

WebLogic on System z Linux under z/VM Technical Briefing© 201o IBM Corporation 9
Installing Novell SLES10 SP2 – Step 2 Easier to unload the SuSE CDs (usually 4 of
them) to disk prior to starting the install Verify that all the media is unloaded and a
mount point has been established Install using an X-Term session or your Browser
– http://xx.xx.xx.xx:5801 (where xx.xx.xx.xx is your IP address) to access the install panels within z/VM
– Start an X-Term (VNC) session• All examples that follow use a VNC X-Term session
Advanced Technical Skills, Americas
WebLogic on System z Linux under z/VM Technical Briefing© 201o IBM Corporation 10
Open the VNC icon on your desktop and enter the IP address and 1. “:1” designates the VNC server instance to be used.
• http://xx.xx.xx.xx:1 Installation panels will
prompt for configuration parameters, beginning with Language.– Continue on and
select options by clicking thru configuration panels

Once downloaded, you must untar and decompress the file. Use the following command:– tar –xzvf /<enter your directory>/ibm-java-sdk-
6.0-7.0-linux-s390x-tgzor– gunzip -c /<enter your directory>/ibm-java-sdk-
6.0-7.0-linux-s390x.tgz | tar -xvf - > javaunpack.txt

Verify you have adequate “tmp” space when you unzip You will notice WebLogic is referred to as Oracle WebLogic Server 11gR1
(10.3.2) and "Oracle WebLogic Server 11g". You download from OTN the "generic" package installer. It is not specific
to Linux on z. The IBM Java SDK 6 64-bit SR4 (or higher) is required. At this time we
recommend you stay with SR4" At this time the download is only on OTN - it is not yet on
edelivery.oracle.com even though the release notes point to that url (as of 4/2010).

WebLogic Terminology & Definitions WebLogic Domain
– A WebLogic Server administration domain is a logically related group of WebLogic Server resources.
– Domains include a special WebLogic Server instance called the Administration Server, and you configure a domain to include additional WebLogic Server instances called Managed Servers. • Administrative Server
– One instance of WebLogic Server in each domain acts as an Administration Server. The Administration Server provides a central point for managing a WebLogic Server domain.
• Managed Server– All other WebLogic Server instances in a domain are called
Managed Servers.• In a domain with only a single WebLogic Server instance,
that server functions both as Administration Server and Managed Server.
Node Manager– Utility which allows lifecycle control of an Administration
Server and Managed Server instances from a remote location. A Node Manager process is associated with a specific machine.
