Weblogic Admin server on a separate server?
I am just polling to see how other people are doing this.
I am preparing to install two brand new servers (VMs) for the middle tier component; Weblogic servers, one admin server and two managed servers. I would like to cluster them at the WebLogic level. For this I need the WebLogic Admin Server to be visible from both nodes of the cluster.
There are many options to do this but I am thinking of installing the WebLogic Admin Server on a separate third server (VM), accessible from both WebLogic cluster nodes. That way if something goes wrong with one of the nodes, I can still stop and start the cluster.
