General Questions
Check all that apply and provide any supporting information for the following:
1. __X__ A previous version of this course exists: D58686GC10, Oracle WebLogic Server 11g: Advanced
Administration
2. __?__ An existing configuration can be used to support this course. The course will be preinstalled with WLS
10.3.3, Oracle DB, and some third party software.
3. _____ There are known issues for current courseware. If there are, list the detail (known bug, will it be fixed in

the next release?)

4. __X__ The course uses Linux
5. _____ The course uses Windows.Why? Can Linux be used instead?
6. _____ The course uses MS Office.Why? Can OpenOffice be used instead?

Technical Environment
ARCHITECTURE
Students will each have their own independent WLS 11g (10.3.3) installation, which they will administer from a Web browser and
the command line. Several of the practices show the integration of WLS with other types of Oracle or 3rd party middleware and
tools, including Oracle JRockit Mission Control, Oracle Database, a non-Oracle messaging server, and a non-Oracle LDAP server.
All of these other products are preinstalled and preconfigured.
For clustering practices, each student will run several instances of WLS along with several instances of Oracle HTTP Server, which
will be preconfigured to run as proxies for WLS. The most resource-intensive practice requires 4 WLS instances and 2 OHS
instances.
For performance tuning practices, students will run the Grinder tool.
