1.2.2 Licensing Considerations for Additional Features

Certain Oracle WebLogic Server editions contain features that have additional licensing considerations.

1.2.2.1 WebLogic for Oracle Internet Application Server

The license for Oracle Internet Application Server within WebLogic Suite includes the unrestricted rights to the full capabilities of the WebLogic Server Enterprise Edition.

Note:
When Oracle Internet Application Server is licensed independently of WebLogic Suite, a constrained WebLogic license, called WebLogic Server Basic, is included. However, when Oracle Internet Application Server is licensed as part of WebLogic Suite, an unrestricted license of WebLogic Server Enterprise Edition is included.
This does not imply that two licenses of WebLogic Server Enterprise are provided within WebLogic Suite, but rather that the rights to WebLogic Server included in Internet Application Server are expanded to the unrestricted use of WebLogic Server Enterprise Edition included in WebLogic Suite.

1.2.2.2 Management and Diagnostics

The following topics describe license considerations for management and diagnostics features for editions of Oracle WebLogic Server.

1.2.2.2.1 Management Features

Note the following license considerations for management features:

- Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control is included with WebLogic Server Standard Edition, WebLogic Server Enterprise Edition, and WebLogic Suite Edition.

- Unrestricted use of the WebLogic Server Administration Console, the WebLogic Scripting Tool, and WebLogic JMX is available in all WebLogic Server editions.

- WebLogic Server Standard Edition, WebLogic Server Enterprise Edition, and WebLogic Suite work with Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control, which is Oracle's integrated tool for managing your Oracle Grid and the components running on the grid.

1.2.2.2.2 Diagnostics Pack for Oracle Middleware

The Oracle Enterprise Manager Diagnostics Pack for Oracle Middleware improves the availability and performance of Java applications with low overhead, as well as providing in-depth diagnostics. It enables administrators to proactively monitor application performance and diagnose the root cause of performance problems, such as an application crashing and hanging in a production environment, which may severely impact businesses.

This pack includes the following components:

- Enterprise Manager system monitoring functionality applicable for both Oracle Internet Application Server and Oracle WebLogic Server

- Oracle Application Diagnostics for Java (AD4J), which is able to diagnose the root cause of Java application performance problems in Java applications with very low performance overhead. It can support applications running on Sun, HP and IBM JVMs.

- Oracle JRockit Mission Control, which you can use with either WebLogic or Oracle Internet Application Server with JRockit JVM

- JRockit Flight Recorder graphical user interface, which is part of the Oracle JRockit Mission Control suite of diagnostic and profiling tools

For more feature highlights about Oracle Enterprise Manager Diagnostics Pack for Oracle Middleware, including licensing information, see "Oracle Middleware Enterprise Management" in Oracle Enterprise Manager Licensing Information.

1.2.2.3 High Availability Features

Oracle WebLogic Server provides several features and tools to support the deployment of highly available and scalable applications, including the following:

- WebLogic Server clusters, which provide scalability and reliability for your applications by distributing the work load among multiple instances of WebLogic Server.

- Work Managers, which prioritize work based on rules you define and by monitoring actual run time performance statistics. Work Managers can be used to provide overload protection, such as detecting, avoiding, and recovering from excess workload. They may be applied globally to a WebLogic Server domain or to a specific application or component.

- WebLogic Server persistent store, which is a built-in, high-performance storage solution for WebLogic Server subsystems and services that require persistence. For example, it can store persistent JMS messages or temporarily store messages sent using the Store-and-Forward feature. The persistent store supports persistence to a file-based store or to a JDBC-enabled database.

- Network channels, which facilitate the effective use of network resources by segregating network traffic into channels based on the type of traffic.

- Store-and-forward services, which enable WebLogic Server to deliver messages reliably between applications that are distributed across WebLogic Server instances. If the message destination is not available at the moment the messages are sent, either because of network problems or system failures, then the messages are saved on a local server instance and are forwarded to the remote destination once it becomes available.

- Oracle Database Real Application Cluster (RAC) integration, which is provided by WebLogic Server via multi data sources, a collection of data sources representing each node in an Oracle Database RAC treated logically as one data source by the application layer, and GridLink data sources, an integration with Oracle Database RAC that requires only one data source per Oracle Database RAC within WebLogic Server.
A multi data source is an abstraction around a group of data sources that provides load balancing or failover processing at the time of connection requests, between the data sources associated with the multi data source.

Some WebLogic Server high availability features require special licensing considerations, which are described in the following sections.

1.2.2.3.1 WebLogic Server Standard Edition

A Standard Edition license provides unlimited access to most high availability features in WebLogic Server, with the exception of Cluster Support. With a Standard Edition license, no restrictions are placed on the following:

- The number of Managed Server instances that may be configured in a WebLogic domain

- Use of the Apache HTTP Server Plug-In to perform load balancing among non-clustered Managed Server instances using the WebLogicCluster plug-in configuration parameter

1.2.2.3.2 Cluster Support

Cluster Support is provided in all WebLogic Server Enterprise Edition and WebLogic Suite Edition licenses, and includes the following capabilities:

- Application failover
When an application component becomes unavailable for any reason, a copy of the failed object finishes the job. In case of hardware or other failures, session state is available to other cluster nodes that can resume the work of the failed node.

- Cluster management and administration
Creating a cluster of Managed Servers enables management and administration of these clustered servers as a single entity. Cluster management and administration features are provided for configuration, application deployment, and monitoring purposes.

- Automatic and manual migration of a clustered server instance from one computer to another using Server Migration
Using Service Migration, the uninterrupted availability of singleton services — services that must run on only a single server instance at any given time, such as JMS and the JTA transaction recovery system — is ensured when the hosting server instance fails.

- Load balancing
Incoming requests can be routed to a WebLogic Server instance in the cluster based on the volume of work being processed.

The following types of objects can be clustered in a WebLogic Server deployment:

- Servlets

- Java Server Pages

- Enterprise JavaBeans

- Remote Method Invocation (RMI) objects

- Java Messaging Service (JMS) destinations. Note:

- A connection factory and a destination can be targeted to different WebLogic Server instances.

- Foreign servers and distributed destinations may be used across multiple WebLogic Server instances.

1.2.2.3.3 High Availability Considerations for Oracle WebLogic Server Middle-Tier Instances

There are several ways that you can make WebLogic Server instances highly available. Each of these high availability models has specific licensing implications. These considerations are similar to the licensing considerations for the high availability features of the Oracle Database.

- Backup: In this type of recovery, WebLogic Server data/files of the primary server are stored on storage devices, such as tape media, and customers are not required to purchase additional licenses.

- Failover (also known as Active/Passive or Cold Failover Cluster): In this type of recovery, WebLogic Server nodes are configured in an Active/Passive Cluster; the first installed node acts as a primary node. If the primary node fails, one of the nodes in the cluster acts as the primary node. In this type of environment Oracle permits licensed Oracle WebLogic Server customers to run the WebLogic Server on an unlicensed spare computer for up to a total of ten separate days in any given calendar year. Any other use requires the environment to be fully licensed. Additionally, the same metric (that is, processor-based, or named user based) must be used when licensing the WebLogic Server in a failover environment.

- Remote Mirroring: This method involves copying the WebLogic Server software to the secondary site and copying the changes in the primary WebLogic Server configuration and data to the secondary site. This can be accomplished through techniques such as storage based remote mirroring or host based mirroring. In the event of a failure at the primary site, the Oracle WebLogic Server on the secondary site is run using the remote storage. In this environment, Oracle WebLogic Server must be fully licensed at the primary site, and if it is ever installed and/or run at the secondary site, it must also be fully licensed there. Additionally, the same metric (that is, processor-based, or named user based) must be used to license both WebLogic Server domains.

1.2.2.3.4 Database Integration

WebLogic Server JDBC multi data sources, also known as GridLink for RAC, are available in WebLogic Server Standard Edition, WebLogic Server Enterprise Edition, and WebLogic Suite.

WebLogic Server GridLink data sources, known as Active GridLink for RAC, are available when licensed with the Exalogic Elastic Cloud Software option on WebLogic Suite.

1.2.2.4 WebLogic SIP Server

WebLogic SIP Server is included in all editions of Oracle WebLogic Server; however, you must license Oracle Communications Converged Application Server (OCCAS) in order to have usage rights to SIP Server.

1.2.2.5 Apache Derby

Apache Derby is an all-Java open source RDBMS that is included in the WebLogic Server distribution solely in support of WebLogic Server evaluation, either in the form of custom trial applications or through packaged sample applications provided with WebLogic Server. Use of Derby is subject to the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0, available at the following URL:

http://www.apache.org/licenses/

1.2.2.6 Oracle JRockit

Note the following Oracle JRockit considerations.

1.2.2.6.1 Oracle JRockit JDK

Oracle JRockit JDK provides tools, utilities, and a complete run-time environment for developing and running applications using the Java programming language. The JDK includes the Oracle JRockit Java Virtual Machine (JVM), which is optimized for Intel architectures and is designed to provide reliability, scalability, and manageability for server-side Java applications.

Oracle JRockit JDK is included in all licenses of Oracle WebLogic Server Standard Edition, Oracle WebLogic Enterprise Edition, and WebLogic Suite Edition. JRockit JDK is restricted to running applications hosted on components within these products.

1.2.2.6.2 Oracle JRockit Real Time

Oracle JRockit Real Time provides lightweight, front-office infrastructure for low latency, event-driven applications.

Within WebLogic Suite Edition, Oracle JRockit Real Time is licensed under the name Oracle WebLogic Real Time. Oracle WebLogic Real Time is a license of JRockit Real Time that is limited to running WebLogic Server and the Java EE applications hosted on it.

1.2.2.6.3 Oracle JRockit Mission Control

Oracle JRockit Mission Control is a diagnostics tool that enables sophisticated problem analysis, performance tuning, and monitoring of the Oracle JRockit JVM. Oracle JRockit Mission Control is licensed as part of the Oracle Enterprise Manager Diagnostics Pack for Oracle Middleware and is included in WebLogic Server Enterprise Edition. For more information about the Oracle Enterprise Manager Diagnostics Pack for Oracle Middleware, see "Oracle Middleware Enterprise Management" in Oracle Enterprise Manager Licensing Information.

1.2.2.6.4 JRockit Flight Recorder

JRockit Flight Recorder (JFR) is a performance monitoring and profiling tool that is included in the Oracle JRockit Mission Control tools suite. JFR records diagnostic information, such as JVM and application events, on a continuous basis and makes that information always available, even in the wake of catastrophic failure such as a system crash.

1.3.1 Oracle Internet Application Server Editions and Installation Types

When you install Oracle Internet Application Server, you will have the choice of several installation types. Each installation type provides a specific set of components and features.

Oracle Internet Application Server editions do not map directly to these product installation types. It is important to understand how these two concepts relate to each other. Table 1-6 lists the minimum edition requirements for each installation type.

In each case, the minimum edition listed is the edition required to install the installation type. However, the minimum edition may not enable you to use everything included in that installation type. For example, you can install Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer from an installation type, but the Standard Edition license does not cover the usage of Oracle Forms, Reports and Discoverer. These restrictions are detailed in Table 1-7.

1.6 Oracle Coherence

Oracle Coherence is an in-memory data grid solution that enables you to scale applications by providing fast access to frequently used data.

This section contains the following topics:

- Section 1.6.1, "Oracle Coherence Standard and Enterprise Edition"

- Section 1.6.2, "Oracle Coherence Grid Edition"

- Section 1.6.3, "Oracle JRockit with Oracle Coherence"

- Section 1.6.4, "Management Pack for Oracle Coherence"

- Section 1.6.5, "Feature Availability in Coherence Server Editions"

- Section 1.6.6, "Feature Availability in Coherence Client Editions"

1.6.1 Oracle Coherence Standard and Enterprise Edition

This section includes the following topics:

- License Model

- Client Access to Enterprise and Standard Edition Clusters

1.6.1.1 License Model

The licensing model for Coherence Enterprise and Standard Edition provides for homogeneous peer-to-peer deployments within the cluster. That means that every member node in the Coherence cluster needs to be licensed with the same Server Edition of Coherence. For Example, every cluster member node in the Enterprise Edition cluster must be running and be properly licensed for Coherence Enterprise Edition. Standard and Enterprise Edition licensing does not distinguish between Cache ClientsFoot 1  and Cache ServersFoot 2 . With Standard and Enterprise Editions Cache Clients must be licensed with the appropriate Server Edition license.

1.6.1.2 Client Access to Enterprise and Standard Edition Clusters

For enabling access to the Enterprise or Standard Edition clusters by clients that are not members of the cluster using TCP/IP (through Extend/TCP) Coherence Data Clients may be used. An unlimited number of Coherence Data Client licenses are included at no additional charge with every license of Coherence Enterprise or Standard Edition. Data Clients are also multi-language clients. Currently Java, C++ or .NET (C#) Data Clients are available. Coherence Data Clients connect to the Coherence cluster through one or more specially configured cluster member node called an Extend Proxy. All Extend Proxy nodes must also be properly licensed with appropriate Server Edition licenses. Coherence Data Clients are able to access (put, get, query) data in the Coherence Cluster and make invocation service requests using standard Coherence APIs, but they do not have the ability to sign up to be notified of the changes to the data in the grid. Further, Data Clients do not have the ability to use Near Caches or Continuous Query, as those capabilities also rely on the ability to receive notifications of data change from the cluster.

Figure 1-1 shows what an Enterprise or a Standard Edition deployment may look like from the licensing perspective.

Figure 1-1 Oracle Coherence Standard or Enterprise Edition Deployment

1.6.2 Oracle Coherence Grid Edition

Grid Edition licensing includes the unlimited use of Real Time Clients which may be of the following two types:

- Real Time Cluster Member Client

- Real Time Extend/TCP Client

1.6.2.1 Real Time Cluster Member Client

Real Time Cluster Member Clients may be part of the Grid Edition Cluster and have all the capabilities of the Grid Edition except those associated with managing partitioned data and those associated with being an Extend Proxy. In other words they may be thought of as Grid Edition nodes configured to have all their partitioned cache services storage-enabled attribute set to false and unable to host connections from Extend/TCP Clients.

Real Time Cluster Member Clients are always Java clients.

Real Time Cluster Member Client nodes may not be configured as Extend Proxy for other Real Time Clients (only Server Edition nodes may be configured as Proxy Servers for use by multi-language Data Clients and Real Time Extend/TCP Clients).

1.6.2.2 Real Time Extend/TCP Client

Real Time Extend/TCP Clients connect to the Coherence cluster over TCP/IP through one or more specially configured cluster member node called an Extend Proxy. All Extend Proxy nodes must also be properly licensed with the Grid Edition licenses.

Real Time Extend/TCP Clients are multi-language clients and currently Java, .NET (C#) and C++ Real Time Extend/TCP Clients are available.

In contrast to the Data Clients, Real Time Extend/TCP Clients have the ability to sign up for notifications for events taking place in the Grid and can take advantage of Coherence Near Caches and Continuous Queries.

Under the Grid Edition licensing model, unlimited number of Real Time Client licenses is included at no additional charge with every license of Coherence Grid Edition.

Figure 1-2 shows what a Grid Edition deployment may look like from the licensing perspective.

Figure 1-2 Oracle Coherence Grid Edition Deployment

1.6.3 Oracle JRockit with Oracle Coherence

Oracle JRockit JDK is included in all licenses of Oracle Coherence Standard Edition, Oracle Coherence Enterprise Edition, Oracle Coherence Grid Edition. JRockit JDK is restricted to running applications hosted on components within these products.

1.6.4 Management Pack for Oracle Coherence

Management Pack for Oracle Coherence provides comprehensive monitoring and management capabilities for Coherence. This pack provides complete cluster visibility by supplying detailed metrics of various cluster artifacts and their interdependencies. You can monitor more than one Coherence cluster from a single console.

Enterprise Manager provides out-of-the-box support for metric alerts, enabling users to proactively monitor cluster health. Various performance charts show real-time and historical performance trends. Enterprise Manager automates the mundane tasks of setting up Coherence software and creating a cluster on distributed machines. Enterprise Manager also enables users to start and stop new nodes in an already monitored Coherence cluster. Similarly, users can also start and stop the entire cluster.

For complete license details about Management Pack for Oracle Coherence, see "Oracle Middleware Enterprise Management" in Oracle Enterprise Manager Licensing Information. This document is available from the Oracle Enterprise Manager Documentation page at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/oem/grid-control/documentation/index.html.

Footnote 1 Coherence TCMP clusters must be homogeneous with respect to the Coherence Edition. A TCMP cluster of one type (for example, Caching Edition) may connect to a TCMP cluster of another type (for example, Grid Edition) as a Data Client or as a Real Time Client, but this requires server-side licenses. The connection type is configurable and defaults to Real Time Client.

Footnote 2 Coherence Editions may not be mixed within the context of a single TCMP-based cluster. Integration of different Edition types is accomplished through Coherence*Extend (with each cluster acting as either a Data Client or a Real Time Client).

Footnote 3 Oracle's cluster-aware wire protocol (TCMP) provides detailed knowledge of the entire cluster that enables direct server access for lower latency and higher throughput, faster failover/failback/rebalancing, and the ability for any participating member to act as a service provider (for example, data management, remote invocation, management and monitoring, and so on).

Footnote 4 Supports integration with a local MBeanServer. This, with local JMX "agents", allows this node to provide management and monitoring features. Clustered JMX support adds the ability for this node to manage and monitor remote nodes as well.

Footnote 5 Parallel support for InvocableMap and QueryMap will result in server-side execution whenever possible, minimizing data transfer, allowing use of indexing, and parallelizing execution across the cluster. Without parallel support, the operations will retrieve the full dataset to the client for evaluation (which may be very inefficient).

Footnote 6 Grid Edition is required for WAN and other deployments that implement cluster-to-cluster interconnects, including any deployment where responsibility for data and/or processing spans more than one data center and activities are coordinated between those data centers using any form of Coherence-provided messaging or connectivity, such as deployments that feature two or more TCMP clusters interconnected by Coherence*Extend.

1.6.6 Feature Availability in Coherence Client Editions

Table 1-9 lists the features available in the following Coherence Client Editions: note that the Data Client may be used with all Coherence Server Editions. The Real Time Client may only be used with Grid Edition. Extend/TCP is an abbreviation for Coherence*Extend configured for transport over TCP/IP.

- Data Client — The Data Grid client for use anywhere. May be used with all Coherence Server Editions

- Real Time Client configured as an Extend/TCP client — The real time desktop client. May be used only with Coherence Grid Edition.

- Real Time Client configured as a Compute Client — The server-class client providing key manageability, monitoring, Quality of Service, and performance capabilities. May be used only with Coherence Grid Edition.

- Oracle GoldenGate N24 — Coordinates the notification message to all BASE24 satellite processes once the file refresh process has completed. Coordination is available for bidirectional configurations as well as unidirectional without the need to modify BASE24.

- Oracle GoldenGate T24 — Does the following:

- Resolves problems with moving tokenized or segmented data to other platforms and databases

- Reorganizes and reformats the transaction log (TLF and PTLF) tokens for all transaction types into a configurable order

- Also reorganizes and re-formats PBF and CAF segments into a defined flat structure that can be propagated into any supported database.

The following components are licensed together as part of the Oracle GoldenGate Application Adapter for JMS and Flat File:

- Oracle GoldenGate for Flat File — Used for file integration, predominantly for ETL, proprietary, or legacy applications. Oracle GoldenGate can write micro batches to disk to be consumed by tools that expect batch/file input. The data is formatted by Oracle GoldenGate to the specifications of the target application, for example, delimiter separated values, length delimited values, binary, etc. Near real-time feeds to these systems are accomplished by decreasing the time window for batch file rollover to minutes or even seconds.

- Oracle GoldenGate for Java — Allows customers to execute custom event handlers written in Java to process the transaction operations and metadata changes captured by Oracle GoldenGate on the source system. These custom Java handlers can apply these changes to a third-party Java API exposed by the target system.

4.12.1 Separately Licensed Adapters

Oracle GoldenGate Logger for Enscribe is licensed separately. This adapter provides the mechanism to capture changes on non-audited Enscribe platforms. Logger requires GGSLIB, an intercept library, that binds the Oracle GoldenGate application to the user's NonStop application. When an Enscribe operation (such as WRITE) executes, GGSLIB intercepts it and sends the record to Logger. Logger writes the records to the universal format log trail, which can then be processed like any other log-based source.

Each of the following application adapters for Oracle GoldenGate must also be licensed separately:

- Oracle GoldenGate for Application Adapter for Base24,

- Oracle GoldenGate Application Adapter for JMS and Flat File

- Oracle GoldenGate Application Adapter for Logger for Enscribe

A.3.1 High Availability Services

Table A-2 lists and describes the high availability services that have restrictions, or that may not be used, in WebLogic Server Basic.

Table A-2 Primary Services Restricted in WebLogic Server Basic License

Feature

Description

Whole server migration

Whole server-level migration enables a migratable server instance, and all of its services, to be migrated to a different physical computer. When a migratable server becomes unavailable for any reason, for example, if it hangs, loses network connectivity, or its host computer fails—migration is automatic. Upon failure, a migratable server is automatically restarted on the same computer if possible. If the migratable server cannot be restarted on the computer where it failed, it is migrated to another computer.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, whole server migration is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Whole Server Migration" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Using Clusters for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Service migration

In a WebLogic Server cluster, most subsystem services are hosted homogeneously on all server instances in the cluster, enabling transparent failover from one server to another. In contrast, pinned services, such as JMS-related services, the JTA Transaction Recovery Service, and user-defined singleton services are hosted on individual server instances within a cluster—for these services, the WebLogic Server migration framework supports failure recovery with service migration, as opposed to failover. Service-level migration in WebLogic Server is the process of moving the pinned services from one server instance to a different available server instance within the cluster.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the configuration and execution of automatic service-level migration is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Service Migration" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Using Clusters for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Managed Server cloning

WebLogic Server provides the capability of cloning an existing Managed Server instance that is part of a cluster. This capability is typically used when an administrator wants to make a duplicate copy of an existing Managed Server.

In the WebLogic Server Basic license, the use of the WebLogic Server Administration Console for cloning a Managed Server instance is not permitted.

For information about how to clone a Managed Server instance, see "Clone machines" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console Help.

MAN and WAN state replication

In addition to providing HTTP session state replication across servers within a cluster, WebLogic Server provides the ability to replicate HTTP session state across multiple clusters in a Metropolitan Area Networks (MAN) or in a Wide Area Network (WAN). This improves high-availability and fault tolerance by allowing clusters to be spread across multiple geographic regions, power grids, and Internet service providers.

Resources within a MAN are often in physically separate locations, but are geographically close enough that network latency is not an issue. Network communication in a MAN generally has low latency and fast interconnect. Clusters within a MAN can be installed in physically separate locations which improves availability. Resources in a WAN are frequently spread across separate geographical regions. In addition to requiring network traffic to cross long distances, these resources are often separated by multiple routers and other network bottle necks. Network communication in a WAN generally has higher latency and slower interconnect.

Slower network performance within a WAN makes it difficult to use a synchronous replication mechanism like the one used within a MAN. WebLogic Server provides failover across clusters in WAN by using an asynchronous data replication scheme.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the use of either the MAN and WAN state replication type is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Session State Replication Across Clusters in a MAN/WAN" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Using Clusters for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Singleton service

Within an application, or as a standalone artifact, you can define a singleton service that can be used to perform tasks that you want to be executed on only one member of a cluster at any give time. A singleton service is active on exactly one server in the cluster at a time and processes requests from multiple clients. A singleton service is generally backed by private, persistent data, which it caches in memory. It may also maintain transient state in memory, which is either regenerated or lost in the event of failure. Upon failure, a singleton service must be restarted on the same server or migrated to a new server.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the configuration of either a standalone or application-provided singleton service is not permitted.

For more information about singleton services, see "Service Migration" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Using Clusters for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Cluster constraints deployment

The default cluster deployment behavior ensures homogeneous deployment for all clustered server instances that can be reached at the time of deployment. However, if the Administration Server cannot reach one or more clustered servers due to a network outage, those servers do not receive the deployment request until the network connection is restored.

It is possible to change WebLogic Server default deployment behavior for clusters by setting the ClusterConstraintsEnabled option when starting the WebLogic Server domain. This option enforces strict deployment for all servers configured in a cluster. A deployment to a cluster succeeds only if all members of the cluster are reachable and all can deploy the specified files.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the use of cluster constraints deployment is not permitted.

For more information about cluster constraints deployment, see "Enforcing Consistent Deployment to All Configured Cluster Members" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Deploying Applications to Oracle WebLogic Server.

Overload management

WebLogic Server has features for detecting, avoiding, and recovering from overload conditions. WebLogic Server overload protection features help prevent the negative consequences—degraded application performance and stability—that can result from continuing to accept requests when the system capacity is reached.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the configuration of any overload protection scheme at either a cluster or server level is not permitted.

For more information about overload management, see "Avoiding and Managing Overload" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuring Server Environments for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Server ADMIN and STANDBY mode

The series of states through which a WebLogic Server instance can transition is called the server life cycle. At any time, a WebLogic Server instance is in a particular operating state. Two states in which WebLogic Server can be started include the following:

- ADMIN — WebLogic Server is up and running, but available only for administration operations, allowing you to perform server and application-level administration tasks.

- STANDBY — WebLogic Server does not process any request; its regular Listen Port is closed. The Administration Port is open and accepts life cycle commands that transition the server instance to either the RUNNING or the SHUTDOWN state. Other administration requests are not accepted.
Starting a server instance in STANDBY is a method of keeping it available as a "hot" backup, a useful capability in high-availability environments.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, starting a WebLogic Server instance in either ADMIN or STANDBY state is not permitted.

For more information about these operating states, see "Understanding Server Life Cycle" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Managing Server Startup and Shutdown for Oracle WebLogic Server.

GridLink data sources

A single GridLink data source provides connectivity between WebLogic Server and an Oracle Database service targeted to an Oracle RAC cluster. It uses the Oracle Notification Service (ONS) to adaptively respond to state changes in an Oracle RAC instance.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the configuration and usage of GridLink data sources are not permitted.

For more information about GridLink data sources, see "Using GridLink Data Sources" in Configuring and Managing JDBC Data Sources for Oracle WebLogic Server.

A.3.2 Deployment Services and Features

Table A-3 lists and describes the deployment services and features that have restrictions, or that may not be used, in WebLogic Server Basic.

Table A-3 WebLogic Deployment Features Restricted in WebLogic Server Basic License

Feature

Description

Production redeployment

Production redeployment strategy involves deploying a new version of an updated application alongside an older version of the same application. WebLogic Server automatically manages client connections so that only new client requests are directed to the new version. Clients already connected to the application during the redeployment continue to use the older version of the application until they complete their work, at which point WebLogic Server automatically retires the older application. This capability is supported by deploying the application in Administration mode, which makes it available only through a configured Administration channel.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, deploying any application that uses a version identifier is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Distributing a New Version of a Production Application" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Deploying Applications to Oracle WebLogic Server.

Application Administration mode

Distributing an application copies deployment files to target servers and places the application in a prepared state. You can then start the application in Administration mode, which restricts access to the application to a configured Administration channel so you can perform final testing without opening the application to external client connections or disrupting connected clients. You can start an application in Administration mode with the -adminmode option. After performing final testing, you can either undeploy the application to make further changes, or start the application in Production mode to make it generally available to clients.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, configuring any application to start in Administration mode is not permitted.

For more information, see in "Administration Mode for Isolating Production Applications" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Deploying Applications to Oracle WebLogic Server.

Changing the order of deployment

You can change the deployment order for a deployed application or standalone module by setting the AppDeploymentMBean DeploymentOrder attribute in the Administration Console (or programmatically using the AppDeploymentMBean). The DeploymentOrder attribute controls the load order of deployments relative to one another—modules with lower DeploymentOrder values deploy before those with higher values. By default, each deployment unit is configured with a DeploymentOrder value of 100. Deployments with the same DeploymentOrder value are deployed in alphabetical order using the deployment name. In all cases, applications and standalone modules are deployed after the WebLogic Server instance has initialized dependent subsystems.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, deploying an application or module with a non-default deployment order setting is not permitted.

For more information about deployment order, see "Changing the Order of Deployment at Server Startup" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Deploying Applications to Oracle WebLogic Server.

FastSwap

Java EE 5 introduces the ability to redefine a class at run time without dropping its ClassLoader or abandoning existing instances. This allows containers to reload altered classes without disturbing running applications, vastly speeding up iterative development cycles and improving the overall development and testing experiences. The usefulness of the Java EE dynamic class redefinition is severely curtailed, however, by the restriction that the shape of the class—its declared fields and methods—cannot change. The purpose of FastSwap is to remove this restriction in WebLogic Server, allowing the dynamic redefinition of classes with new shapes to facilitate iterative development.

With FastSwap, Java classes are redefined in-place without reloading the ClassLoader, thereby having the decided advantage of fast turnaround times. This means that you do not have to wait for an application to redeploy and then navigate back to wherever you were in the Web page flow. Instead, you can make your changes, auto compile, and then see the effects immediately.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, deploying an application in which FastSwap is enabled is not permitted.

For more information about FastSwap, see "Using FastSwap Deployment to Minimize Redeployment" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Deploying Applications to Oracle WebLogic Server.

WebLogic JMS and JDBC module deployment

Standalone JDBC, JMS, and WLDF application modules can be deployed similar to standalone Java EE modules. For a standalone JDBC, JMS, or WLDF application module, the target list determines the WebLogic Server domain in which the module is available. JNDI names specified within an application module are bound as global names and available to clients. For example, if you deploy a standalone JDBC application module to a single-server target, applications that require resources defined in the JDBC module can only be deployed to the same server instance. You can target application modules to multiple servers, or to WebLogic Server clusters to make the resources available on additional servers.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the standalone deployment of WebLogic JDBC, JMS and WLDF modules is not permitted.

For more information, see "Deploying JDBC, JMS, and WLDF Application Modules" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Deploying Applications to Oracle WebLogic Server.

A.3.3 JMS Messaging Services

Table A-4 lists and describes the JMS messaging services and features that have restrictions, or that may not be used, in WebLogic Server Basic.

Table A-4 JMS Messaging Services Features Restricted in WebLogic Server Basic License

Feature

Description

Message Unit-of-Order

Message Unit-of-Order is a WebLogic Server value-added feature that enables a standalone message producer, or a group of producers acting as one, to group messages into a single unit with respect to the processing order. This single unit is called a Unit-of-Order and requires that all messages from that unit be processed sequentially in the order they were created.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, changing the default Unit-of-Order for a message producer is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Using Message Unit-of-Order" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Programming JMS for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Unit-of-Work Message Groups

Many applications need an even more restricted notion of a group than provided by the Message Unit-of-Order (UOO) feature. If this is the case for your applications, WebLogic JMS provides the Unit-of-Work (UOW) Message Groups, which allows applications to send JMS messages, identifying some of them as a group and allowing a JMS consumer to process them as such. For example, a JMS producer can designate a set of messages that need to be delivered to a single client without interruption, so that the messages can be processed as a unit. Further, the client will not be blocked waiting for the completion of one unit when there is another unit that is already complete.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, changing the default value of the UnitOfWorkHandlingPolicy value for a JMS resource is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Using Unit-of-Work Message Groups" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Programming JMS for Oracle WebLogic Server.

JMS Store-and-Forward agents

The WebLogic Store-and-Forward (SAF) client provides a mechanism whereby standalone clients can reliably send JMS messages to server-side JMS destinations, even when the SAF client cannot reach the JMS destination due to a network connection failure (for example, a temporary blip or a network failure). While disconnected, messages sent by a SAF client are stored locally on the client and are forwarded to server-side JMS destinations once the client is reconnected.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, configuring any SAF agents is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Configuring SAF for JMS Messages" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuring and Managing Store-and-Forward for Oracle WebLogic Server.

A.3.4 Additional Primary Services

Table A-5 lists and describes additional services and components that have restrictions, or that may not be used, in WebLogic Server Basic.

Table A-5 Additional Services Restricted in WebLogic Server Basic License

Component or Feature

Description

WebLogic Diagnostics Framework

The WebLogic Diagnostic Framework (WLDF) is a monitoring and diagnostic framework that defines and implements a set of services that run within WebLogic Server processes and participate in the standard server life cycle. Using WLDF, you can create, collect, analyze, archive, and access diagnostic data generated by a running server and the applications deployed within its containers. This data provides insight into the run-time performance of servers and applications and enables you to isolate and diagnose faults when they occur.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the use of WLDF is not permitted.

For more information about the WebLogic Diagnostic Framework (WLDF), see "What Is the WebLogic Diagnostic Framework?" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuring and Using the Diagnostics Framework for Oracle WebLogic Server.

WebLogic Server SNMP agents

WebLogic Server SNMP agents query the WebLogic Server management system and communicate the results to managers over the SNMP protocol. The WebLogic Server management system exposes management data through a collection of managed beans (MBeans). When a WebLogic Server SNMP agent receives a request from a manager, it determines which MBean corresponds to the OID in the manager's request. Then it retrieves the data and wraps it in an SNMP response.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, all SNMP agents must be disabled.

For more information about WebLogic Server SNMP agents, see Oracle Fusion Middleware SNMP Management Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server.

WebLogic Tuxedo Connector

The Oracle WebLogic Tuxedo Connector provides interoperability between WebLogic Server applications and Tuxedo services. The connector allows WebLogic Server clients to invoke Tuxedo services and Tuxedo clients to invoke WebLogic Server Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs) in response to a service request.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, use of Oracle WebLogic Tuxedo Connector is not permitted.

For more information about WebLogic Tuxedo Connector, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Tuxedo Connector Administration Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server

WebLogic HTTP Publish-Subscribe Server

An HTTP Publish-Subscribe Server is a mechanism whereby Web clients subscribe to channels and then publish messages to these channels using asynchronous messages over HTTP.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, use of the WebLogic HTTP Publish-Subscribe Server is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Using the HTTP Publish-Subscribe Server" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Developing Web Applications, Servlets, and JSPs for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Use of Work Managers to prioritize and optimize work

WebLogic Server prioritizes work and allocates threads based on an execution model that takes into account administrator-defined parameters and actual run-time performance and throughput.

Administrators can configure a set of scheduling guidelines and associate them with one or more applications, or with particular application components. For example, you can associate one set of scheduling guidelines for one application, and another set of guidelines for other applications. At run time, WebLogic Server uses these guidelines to assign pending work and enqueued requests to execution threads.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the creation of either global or application-specific Work Managers to modify the default work model is not permitted.

For more information about Work Managers, see "Understanding Work Managers" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuring Server Environments for Oracle WebLogic Server.

A.4 Restricted WebLogic Web Services Features

Table A-6 describes the WebLogic Web Services features that are not available for use under the terms of the WebLogic Server Basic license.

Table A-6 WebLogic Web Services Features Restricted in WebLogic Server Basic License

Feature

Description

Buffered Web Services

When a buffered operation is invoked by a client, the method operation goes on a JMS queue and WebLogic Server deals with it asynchronously. As with Web Service reliable messaging, if WebLogic Server goes down while the method invocation is still in the queue, it will be dealt with as soon as WebLogic Server is restarted. When a client invokes the buffered Web Service, the client does not wait for a response from the invoke, and the execution of the client can continue.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the use of buffered Web Services is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Creating Buffered Web Services" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Programming Advanced Features of JAX-RPC Web Services for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Asynchronous Web Services

When you invoke a Web Service synchronously, the invoking client application waits for the response to return before it can continue with its work. In cases where the response returns immediately, this method of invoking the Web Service is common. However, because request processing can be delayed, it is often useful for the client application to continue its work and handle the response later on, or in other words, use the asynchronous request-response feature of WebLogic Web Services.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the use of the asynchronous request-response feature is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Invoking a Web Service Using Asynchronous Request-Response" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Programming Advanced Features of JAX-RPC Web Services for Oracle WebLogic Server.

Conversational Web Services

A Web Service and the client application that invokes it may communicate multiple times to complete a single task. Also, multiple client applications might communicate with the same Web Service at the same time. Conversations provide a straightforward way to keep track of data between calls and to ensure that the Web Service always responds to the correct client.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the use of conversational Web Services is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Creating Conversational Web Services" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Programming Advanced Features of JAX-RPC Web Services for Oracle WebLogic Server.

JMS transport

WebLogic Web Services may be configured to use the JMS transport as an alternative to the HTTP/HTTPS connection protocol for use by WebLogic clients. Using JMS transport offers the following benefits: reliability, scalability, and quality of service. As with Web Service reliable messaging, if WebLogic Server goes down while the method invocation is still in the queue, it will be dealt with as soon as WebLogic Server is restarted. When a client invokes a Web Service, the client does not wait for a response from the invoke, and the execution of the client can continue.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the use or configuration of JMS transport in either WebLogic Web Services or WebLogic Web Services clients is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Using JMS Transport as the Connection Protocol" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Programming Advanced Features of JAX-RPC Web Services for Oracle WebLogic Server.

A.5 Restricted Tooling Features

Table A-7 describes the tooling features in WebLogic Server that are not available for use under the terms of the WebLogic Server Basic license.

Table A-7 WebLogic Server Tooling Features Restricted in WebLogic Server Basic

Feature

Description

Configuration Wizard, Domain Template Builder, and pack and unpack commands

The Configuration Wizard guides you through the process of creating a domain for your target environment by selecting the WebLogic Server components to include in your domain, or by using domain templates. If required, you can also customize the domain to suit your environment by adding and configuring Managed Servers, clusters, and computer definitions, or customizing predefined JDBC data sources, and JMS file store directories.

After you create a domain and add resources and applications to it, you can use the Domain Template Builder, or pack and unpack commands, to create a custom domain or domain extension template. These templates provides a convenient means to replicate a domain, or domain extension, throughout your environment.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic: none of the following are permitted:

- Use of the Configuration Wizard to create domains based on templates not supplied by Oracle

- Use of the Domain Template Builder to create custom domain or domain extension templates

- Use of the pack or unpack commands to create custom domains, domain extension, domain templates, or domain extension templates

For more information about these tools, see the following:

- Oracle WebLogic Server Creating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard

- Oracle WebLogic Server Creating Domain Templates Using the Domain Template Builder

- Oracle WebLogic Server Creating Templates and Domains Using the Pack and Unpack Commands

Recording Administration Console operations

To help automate the task of configuring a domain, you can record your configuration actions in the WebLogic Server Administration Console as a series of WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) commands and then use WLST to replay the commands.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, use of the Record element in the Administration Console tool bar is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Record WLST Scripts" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console Help.

Extending the Administration Console

Administration Console extensions enable you to add content to the WebLogic Server Administration Console, replace content, and change the logos, styles and colors without modifying the files that are installed with WebLogic Server. For example, you can add content that provides custom monitoring and management facilities for your applications.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the modification or extension of the Administration Console is not permitted. This restriction is placed on making any additions or changes to the Administration Console using the console extension mechanism.

For more information about this feature, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Extending the Administration Console for Oracle WebLogic Server.

A.6 Restricted APIs

Table A-8 describes the APIs in WebLogic Server that have restricted use under the terms of the WebLogic Server Basic license.

Table A-8 WebLogic Server APIs Restricted in WebLogic Server Basic

API

Description

Use of CommonJ Work Manager for application initiated work

WebLogic Server also provides a programmatic way of handling work from within an application. This is provided through the CommonJ API. WebLogic Server implements the commonj.work and commonj.timers packages of the CommonJ specification.

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the use of CommonJ Work Manager for application initiated work is not permitted.

For more information about this feature, see "Using CommonJ With WebLogic Server" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuring Server Environments for Oracle WebLogic Server.

WebLogic JMS clients for Microsoft .NET and C

The WebLogic JMS .NET client is a fully-managed .NET run-time library and application programming interface (API). It enables programmers to create .NET C# client applications that can access WebLogic Java Message Service (JMS) applications and resources.

The WebLogic JMS C API is an application program interface that enables you to create C client applications that can access WebLogic JMS applications and resources. The C client application then uses the Java Native Interface (JNI), described at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/jni/index.html, to access the client-side Java JMS classes

In the license for WebLogic Server Basic, the use of WebLogic JMS clients for .NET and C is not permitted.

For more information about the WebLogic JMS .NET client, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Using the WebLogic JMS Client for Microsoft .NET for Oracle WebLogic Server. For more information about the WebLogic JMS C API, see "WebLogic JMS C API" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Programming JMS for Oracle WebLogic Server.

A.7 Verifying License Compliance

It is the end user's responsibility to ensure that the features available in WebLogic Server Basic are used in accordance with the terms of the license agreement. This section explains how the appropriate usage of license-restricted features can be easily verified, or how their usage can be prevented, to ensure that each installation of WebLogic Server Basic is used in compliance with its license.

To help with verifying that WebLogic Server is being used in accordance with the WebLogic Server Basic license, a WLST script is available from My Oracle Support that you can download and run. This script is described in the following My Oracle Support article:

Doc ID: 885587.1

Subject: WebLogic Server Basic License Audit Script

This script audits a WebLogic Server installation and generates a report that provides data about the usage or configuration of restricted WebLogic Server features defined by WebLogic Server Basic. Not every license-restricted feature is audited by this script, so its coverage is not exhaustive. But it can simplify compliance verification of most restricted features. (None of the data gathered by this script is transmitted or reported anywhere, nor is its use mandatory. It is provided only as a convenience.) You can log in to My Oracle Support at the following URL to obtain this script:

https://support.oracle.com/

For each license-restricted feature in WebLogic Server Basic, Table A-9 provides the following information:

- A description of the specific license restriction associated with the feature. If the feature can be disabled by a specific configuration setting, this table identifies that setting.

- Whether the audit script can verify that the feature is being used in accordance with the WebLogic Server Basic license
