Guidelines for deploying the Marketing Platform on WebLogic

Follow the guidelines in this section when you deploy the Marketing Platform products on any supported version of WebLogic.

1.	IBM® EMM products customize the JVM used by WebLogic. You may need to create a WebLogic instance dedicated to IBM® EMM products if you encounter JVM-related errors.

Verify that the SDK selected for the WebLogic domain you are using is the Sun SDK by looking in the startup script (startWebLogic.cmd) for the JAVA_VENDOR variable. It should be set to: JAVA_VENDOR=Sun . If it is set to JAVA_VENDOR=BEA , JRockit has been selected. JRockit is not supported. To change the selected SDK, refer to the BEA WebLogic documentation.

3.	Deploy the Marketing Platform as a web application.

4.	Only if your instance of WebLogic is configured to use a JVM version 1.6 or newer, do the following to work around an issue with the time zone database.

5.	If you are configuring WebLogic to use the IIS plug-in, review the BEA WebLogic documentation.

1.	Only if your installation must support non-ASCII characters, for example for Portuguese or for locales that require multi-byte characters, edit the setDomainEnv script, located in the bin directory under your WebLogic domain directory, as follows.

2.	In the WebLogic console, click the Domain link on the home page, and check the Archived Real Path Enabled box on the Web Applications tab.

3.	Restart WebLogic.

4.	Deploy and start the EAR file or the WAR file (unica.war).
