Zero Downtime: Restart Admin Server from Admin Console / Rolling Restart of Servers or Cluster (WebLogic 12.2.1)

Before WebLogic 12.2.1 I was often asked if there is any OOTB restart of the admin server, especially from the admin console. Now with WLS 12.2.1 it can be done easily. Also of course you rolling restart a set of servers, a cluster or two, or whole domain!

  • Admin Server has to be assigned to a machine
  • Admin Server has to be started under nodemanager

Goto DOMAIN / ZDT Control / Domain | Cluster | Servers, chose what you would like to rolling restart, then click on Patch.

Select Rolling Restart.
