2009

TKU January 2009

In TKU January we added details of the BEA WebLogic Application Server workshop component.

TKU February 2009

In TKU February we added domain, cluster, listen address, listen port, ssl listen port, channels, default protocol and default secure protocol information to the Software Instance.

In TKU February 2009 we also added a configuration section which allows the Common Installation Locations to be user-definable; the default locations being "/opt/bea", "/usr/local/bea", "/opt/bea/weblogic" and "/root/bea". The same configuration section also allows the default listen port and ssl listen port to be user-defined, the defaults being '7001' and '7002' respectively.

Code has also been added to prevent attributes being added to _tw_meta_data_attrs twice.

TKU March 2009

In TKU March 2009 we updated the Windows pattern in two ways:

• It now obtains its default listen ports from the configuration section as per the UNIX pattern.
• We added a bug fix to remove extraneous hard returns from the install_root Software Instance attribute

TKU May 2009

In TKU May 2009 we updated the key. It now uses a hash of the process command and arguments, not the full text. This should make the key shorter

2010

TKU January 2010

In TKU Jan 2010 the patterns were updated for CDM mapping.

TKU Mar 2010

In TKU Mar 2010 Pattern aims to determine whether the discovered Application Server is an administration server in order to populate JMX port information which can then be used for deep discovery of WebLogic.

TKU April 2010

In TKU Apr 2010 the code that determines the location of config.xml file which is required for obtaining domain information, listening ports (information required for deep discovery) on UNIX platform was optimized.

TKU July 2010

In TKU Jul 2010 a fix for a bug was added, which was caused by the pattern attempting to check content of the configuration file even if the content was not actually obtained.

TKU September 2010

In TKU Sep 2010 the pattern was enhanced by adding to SI name attribute the specifying of Domain to which Application Server belongs to, also domain name was added to created SI key.

TKU October 2010

In TKU Oct 2010 the pattern was updated to keep obtained 'domain' attribute which can be set by ExtendedWeblogicDiscovery pattern and update the name of Software Instance accordingly.

TKU November 2010

In TKU November 2010 the pattern was updated to model BEA Weblogic Application Server being run as a Windows service. In addition, beasvc.exe and beasvcX64.exe were added as simple identifiers. And also the pattern was updated to keep obtained 'cluster' attribute which can be set by ExtendedWeblogicDiscovery pattern.

TKU December 2010

In TKU December 2010 some slight improvements were made to the way the pattern discovers additional java processes. Also a few options were added to Configuration section which allow user to define possible absolute domain directory paths for each platform.

2011

TKU March 2011

In TKU March 2011 the methods used for obtaining bea_home were optimized, Versioning from registry was also improved, Path Versioning was enhanced to use firstly install dir (if it was found) as the source for the version. Also additional Versioning method from config.xml was added.

TKU June 2011

In TKU June 2011 the pattern was enhanced to create a communication relationship with the Oracle Jolt Software Instance if it is found in the host mentioned in the config XML file.

TKU August 2011

In TKU August 2011 the pattern was enhanced to generate much more stable key and key groups, populate config_file as SI attribute.

TKU September 2011

In TKU September 2011 for ADDM 8.3+ ExtendedWeblogicDiscovery pattern which is responsible for deep Weblogic modelling was enhanced with supporting config-file-based method as back-up for Phurnace mechanism. Weblogic Application Server pattern is unchanged though.

TKU December 2011

In TKU December 2011 slight updates were made to the way the bea_home variable is obtained

2012

TKU January 2012

In TKU January 2012 the version mapping table (and metadata) in the pattern module was updated to add support for WebLogic Application Server 12c, and the patterns in the WebLogic Application Server module were enhanced with an improved code logic used to obtain the product version from the registry.xml file.
Finally, the WebLogic Application Server (Windows) pattern was updated, significantly enhancing the code to identify and model WebLogic Application Server when running as a Windows service

TKU March 2012

In TKU March 2012 the license attributes were moved to a detail node. There was some other minor tidying up of attributes.
Finally, the algorithm to set the SI key was improved.

TKU April 2012

In TKU April 2012 pattern was improved in terms of loading and activation performance and decreased memory footprint required

TKU May 2012

In TKU May 2012 ECA engine error that can occur if the channels information is found in config.xml file was fixed. Also functions were updated to process root directories for config.xml file obtaining.
