B: Run the pack tool on the administration server’s machine Correct answer
C: Transfer the installation certificate to the administration server’s machine
D: Transfer the managed server template to the new machine Correct answer
E: Use the Administration Console to clone the administration server
F: Run the unpack tool on the new machine Correct answer
Correct Answer:
B. Run the pack tool on the administration server’s machine; D. Transfer the managed server template to the new machine; F. Run the unpack tool on the new machine
Explanation

To scale out an existing WebLogic domain to a new machine, the standard procedure involves using the pack and unpack command-line utilities. First, the pack command is executed on the machine hosting the Administration Server to create a domain template (.jar file). This template captures the necessary domain configuration for a Managed Server. Second, this template file is transferred to the new machine. Finally, the unpack command is run on the new machine, using the transferred template to create the required domain directory structure, which will be managed by the original Administration Server.

Why Incorrect

A. Use the Configuration Wizard to clone the domain: The Configuration Wizard is used to create or extend domains, but pack and unpack are the specific tools designed for duplicating a domain structure for scaling out.
C. Transfer the installation certificate to the administration server’s machine: Installation certificates are not part of the domain configuration and are not required for scaling out a domain to a new machine.
E. Use the Administration Console to clone the administration server: The Administration Console is a web-based tool for runtime management and configuration, not for creating domain directory structures on a new file system.

Creating WebLogic Domains Using the Configuration Wizard

12.2.1.4

Reference: Chapter 7

"Creating a Managed Server Domain".

Details: Section 7.2

"Roadmap for Creating a Managed Server Domain

" explicitly lists the required steps:

1. "Create a Managed Server domain template by using the pack command." (Supports option B)

2. "Copy the Managed Server domain template to the remote machine." (Supports option D)

3. "Create the Managed Server domain by using the unpack command." (Supports option F)

2. Oracle Fusion Middleware Documentation

WebLogic Server Command Reference

12.2.1.4

Reference: pack command description.

Details: The documentation states

"Creates a template archive (.jar) file that contains a snapshot of an entire domain or a subset of a domain... For example

you can create a template that contains the resources and applications for a Managed Server

and then use that template to create a Managed Server domain on a remote computer." This confirms the purpose of pack in this scenario.

3. Oracle Fusion Middleware Documentation

WebLogic Server Command Reference

12.2.1.4

Reference: unpack command description.

Details: The documentation states

"Creates a full domain or a subset of a domain on a computer

for a Managed Server

from a template that was created by using the pack command." This confirms the role of unpack in completing the process on the new machine.
