The customer has asked which tools they can use. Is this itemized somewhere?

Regarding:

“The licensing for the IFS MWS does not allow any configuration done to Middle Tier components without the use of IFS Tools. “

The customer has asked which of the tools they have are considered “IFS Tools”. And then specifically they would like to know what happens if they use things like the WebLogic console to make changes, or what happens if they make manual changes to Middleware configuration files.

They consider these questions high priority. Their corporate security folks are requiring the IT team doing the installations to provide answers. So I’m trying to help with that.

Thanks.

Hi @robhus,

This is probably a question for R&D. Haven’t seen this documented anywhere, either in F1 Docs or in Share Point. IFS tools in this case though refers to IFS Installer, IFS provided scripts such as mws_svr.cmd, IFS Middleware Server Admin Console and IFS Monitoring Console. Oracle Weblogic Console is off limits for customers. I am not sure about directly making changes to configuration files. 

Might be a good idea to dispatch a task to R&D to get this properly clarified and documented. 

Hope this helps!
