WebLogic silent install

It seems that I'm all into silent installs these days.
Trying to do a WebLogic installation in silent mode. Went to the documentation, as a few things have changed since the early BEA days.

So I found the sample file for the silent.xml .

Without big thinking I copied the sample like this:

&ltbea-installer&gt
&ltinput-fields&gt
&ltdata-value value="D:\Oracle\Middleware_Home" name="BEAHOME"&gt
&ltdata-value value="D:\Oracle\Middleware_Home\wlserver_10.3" name="WLS_INSTALL_DIR"&gt

Silent install is veeeeeery slow

Yesterday I did my first ever silent install. Nothing fancy yet. There are two possibilities:

a) Silent install is dead slow

or

b) There is something wrong with the machine or the storage

Bottom line is, it took me 1.5 hours to just install the database software.
I need to investigate this, as this is not what I had in mind.

Definitions of Services and Processes

After once again looking for good, useful definitions of Services and Process decided to put them here for future reference.

Configuration and preference properties in BPEL and Adapters @ Composite


Configuration and preference properties are always used extensively in most of the projects. So a developer needs to be aware about the changes that have happened from 10g to 11g.
