About
An Oracle WebLogic Server administration domain is a logically related group of Java components:
- the Administration Server that you use for configuration and management purposes only.
- and other related software components

Management
remove a domain
- Just copy the domain in an other location than FMW_Home\user_projects\domain
- And suppress the entry in the FMW_HOME\wlserver_10.3\common\nodemanager.domains file.
Home
Example of value:
FMW_Home\user_projects\domains\domainName
#bi Linux
/u01/app/fmw/user_projects/domains/bi
#bi Windows
F:\Oracle\Middleware\Fmw\user_projects\domains\bi
Other locations:
- Stand Alone WebLogic Server: FMW_Home\user_projects\domains
- JDeveloper Integrated WebLogic Server:
- In Windows environments: %APPDATA%\JDeveloper\systemXX.XX.XX.XX\DefaultDomain where XX.XX.XX.XX is the unique number of the product build.
- In non-Windows environments, the default location is under the current user's default home directory: <Home>/DefaultDomain
Extend
Extending a domain means that you add products and functionality to an existing domain.
Configuration
Each domain describes its configuration in an XML document that is located in the domain's configuration directory. The central configuration file for a domain is DOMAIN_NAME/config/config.xml.
Example with a BI installation:
fmw_home/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/config
General Information
Schemas
The schemas that define a domain’s configuration document are in the following locations:
- In JAR files under WL_HOME/server/lib/schema, where WL_HOME is the directory in which you install WebLogic Server. Within this directory:
- The domain.xsd document is represented in the weblogic-domain-binding.jar under the pathname META-INF/schemas/schema-1.xsd.
- The security.xsd document is represented in the weblogic-domain-binding.jar under the pathname META-INF/schemas/schema-0.xsd.
- The weblogic-diagnostics.xsd document is represented in the diagnostics-binding.jar under the pathname META-INF/schemas/schema-0.xsd.
Type
Standalone
A standalone domain is a container for system components, such as Oracle HTTP Server. It has a directory structure similar to an Oracle WebLogic Server domain, but it does not contain an Administration Server or Managed Servers. It can contain one or more instances of system components of the same type, such as Oracle HTTP Server, or a mix of system component types.
