- Make sure you stopped the Managed Servers and Admin server.
- Copy the BEA_HOME directory to your target destination.
- Copy the SOADOMAIN_HOME directory to your target destination.
- Export the SOA repository from the database.
- Import the SOA repository in target database.
- Manually make changes in the SOADOMAIN_HOME/config/config.xml file.
- Manually make changes in the WLS_HOME/wls_server1/common/nodemanger/* properties.
- Manually make changes in the SOADOMAIN_HOME/config/jdbc/* datasource file(s) to target database.
- Make changes in start-up scripts when using WKA in Coherence clustering.
- Start servers
- Check SOAP Server URL and Callback Server URL
Make sure that all the WLS servers are stopped in the domain, even the clustered ones. This is to make sure that no caching occurs.
2
Copy the binary tree to another destination. You could install the WLS software-only, but a copy is quicker.
3
Use the tool pack/unpack to copy a complete domain from one destination to another. Alternatively you could copy the complete file tree of your SOA_DOMAIN, including the application directory.
4
Make an export of the SOA repository, make sure you have the rights to export the various SOA schema's such as, MDS, SOA_INFRA etc.
5
Import the exported data. In this case, the SOA schema's must be already there or they will be created during the import. Again, you must have the correct privileges to create schema's and apply the correct grants.
But be ware that the users in the other database need to have to following roles:
select * from dba_role_privs where grantee like 'DEV_%' order by grantee; GRANTEE GRANTED_ROLE -------------- --------------------- DEV_SOAINFRA CONNECT DEV_SOAINFRA RESOURCE DEV_SOAINFRA AQ_USER_ROLE DEV_SOAINFRA AQ_ADMINISTRATOR_ROLE DEV_SOAINFRA SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE DEV_MDS RESOURCE DEV_MDS CONNECT DEV_ORABAM CONNECT DEV_ORABAM RESOURCE Or more in detail: select lpad(' ', 4*level) || granted_role "User, his roles and privileges" from ( /* * Users */ select null grantee, username granted_role from dba_users where username like 'DEV_%' /* * the roles to roles relations */ union select grantee, granted_role from dba_role_privs /* THE ROLES TO PRIVILEGE RELATIONS */ union select grantee, privilege from dba_sys_privs ) start with grantee is null connect by grantee = prior granted_role;
6
Make changes in the config.xml file, to set new hostnames and/or IP addresses for the Admin Server, Managed Servers and node manager (machine)
7
Make changes in the nodemanger comnfiguration. If this is a new server, the nodemanager.properties should be updated. If the cloning is done on the same server, you should change the port number only, or reuse an existing node-manager.
8
Make changes in the JDBC connections. The data-sources for target database updated.
9
If you are using a clusterm verify the coherence properties, such as multicast adresses. If you are using well-known-adresses (WKA) make sure the are updated.
10
Now you are able to start the admin and managed servers.
11
If you are usingf a loadbalancer check SOAP Server URL and Callback Server URL via Enterprise manager. (EM -> SOA-INFRA -> SOA Administration -> Common Properties)
Note: With this solution you loose existing running processes.
