How to Manually Deploy the registermbeans.war file into the Weblogic Server
Applications Manager collects performance data from WebLogic Server version 11 and above using an MBean agent. This agent is typically deployed automatically. However, if the agent isn't deployed for any reason, you can manually deploy the registermbeans.war file to ensure proper data collection.
The steps below outline the manual deployment process in WebLogic Server version 12.
Steps to deploy registermbeans.war file in WebLogic Server
- Open the WebLogic Server Administration Console and navigate to http://<WeblogicHost>:<Port>/console.
- Log in using WebLogic Administrator credentials.
- In the Domain Structure panel on the left, click on Deployments.

- In the Summary of Deployments table, click on the Install button.
- Browse to the location of the registermbeans.war file or enter its path if it already exists on the server.
- If an older version of registermbeans is already deployed, delete it before proceeding.
- Select the provided registermbeans.war file and click Next.
- Choose the appropriate Target (e.g., AdminServer, a Managed Server, or a Cluster), then click Next.
- Select Install this deployment as an application (the default option), and click Next.
- Click on Finish, then Activate Changes from the top-left corner of the console.
- After deployment, you should see registermbeans listed in the deployments table.

- Restart both the WebLogic Server and Applications Manager to complete the process.
Note:
- Coordinate with your internal WebLogic team before proceeding.
- It is advisable to first test the deployment in your UAT (User Acceptance Testing) environment before moving it to production.
- Once deployed successfully, the agent will start sending data to APM.
