Start Weblogic Admin and BI Server Faster


Start Weblogic Admin and BI Server Faster

WebLogic Server  takes more than 8-11 minutes to start. On looking more closely at the log files, the server is waiting on the random number generator to generate a number for the application.  In order to solve this issue, do the following.  Add the following flag -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom as a startup argument to Java in the setDomainEnv.sh in the following location in
$MH/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin

This change has reduced the start-up time from 11 minutes to about 3 minutes.
