Add WebCenter Portal Nodes to a Cluster Domain and configure WCP with WCC

In our example, we have WebCenter Portal in the same machine that  our Admin Domain, so we just need to add the second node of WebCenter Portal. If you have your node 1 of WebCenter Portal in another machine, just pack and unpack the domain for this node as we are going to do for the node 2.

Join WebCenter Portal node 2 machine to the Clustered Domain on WebCenter Portal node1:

• From AdminServer, shutdown UCM_sever1, UCM_server2, and all your managed servers.
• Login in the node where you have you admin domain create and configured.
• Check that there is not any java process
  • ps -ef | grep java
• Execute the pack process to pack the domain
  • /opt/oracle/config/user_projects/domains/WC_Prod -template=cluster4.jar -template_name=”WC_Prod_template4″

• The Pack the domain process will generated cluster4.jar file. Move the file to your WebCenter Portal node 2.
• Login in WebCenter Portal node 2 terminal and execute the unpack process.
  • ./unpack.sh -domain=/opt/oracle/config/user_projects/domains/WC_Prod -app_dir=/opt/oracle/config/user_projects//applications/WC_Prod -template=/home/weblogic/templateDomain/cluster4.jar

• From your WCP node1 terminal, start nodemanager.
• From your WCP node2 terminal, start nodemanager.
• Start your weblogic Console, from where you created the domain.
• Login in Admin Console and start your managed servers WCC node 1, WCC node 2 (WebCenter content first), WCP node 1, WCP node 2. The rest of services are not required.

Connect WebCenter Portal with WebCenter Content:

In case that you have two nodes of WebCenter Content, you will need an IP to balance the requests from WCP to WCC, you can use the WebTier as an internal LoadBalancer or an internal LoalBalancer.

• Login in enterprise manager console
  • Ip:7001/console (The enterprise manager will be in the same IP that you have admin console)

• Navigate from the console to WebCenter Portal server.

• Navigate to setting > service configuration > Content Repository

• Add a new manage content Repository Connection and save.

• Check the status of the new management Content Repository
