7.1 Overview of WebLogic Web Services Administration Tasks
When you use the jwsc Ant task to compile and package a WebLogic Web service, the task packages it as part of an Enterprise Application. The Web service itself is
packaged inside the Enterprise application as a Web application WAR file, by default. However, if your JWS file implements a session bean then the Web service is packaged
as an EJB JAR file. Therefore, basic administration of Web services is very similar to basic administration of standard Java Platform, Enterprise Edition Java EE Version 5
applications and modules. These standard tasks include:
■
Installing the Enterprise application that contains the Web service.
■
Starting and stopping the deployed Enterprise application.
■
Configuring the Enterprise application and the archive file which implements the actual Web service. You can configure general characteristics of the Enterprise
application, such as the deployment order, or module-specific characteristics, such as session time-out for Web applications or transaction type for EJBs.
■
Creating and updating the Enterprise applications deployment plan.
■
Monitoring the Enterprise application.
■
Testing the Enterprise application. The following administrative tasks are specific to Web services:
■
Configuring the JMS resources used by Web service reliable messaging and JMS transport
