Hi,

This question is very advanced and detailed about WLSDM usage 🙂

Yes, import feature is only available at wizard page and only available for the first installation. Wizard status property is available at “WLSDM Console > Left Menu > Configuration > WLSDM System Settings > system.wlsdm (TAB)” section. When you change the value of “system.wlsdm.wizard.completion.status” property value from 1 to 0, after restarting AdminServer; the wizard would be visible again. Yes, you can import another domain’s exported WLSDM configuration without any problem. But remember; this usage is recommended for advanced users.

I am recommending before doing it;

  1. Take a backup of your current WLSDM configuration; the button is available at “Configuration > WLSDM System Settings” page.



  1. Take backup of your current config.xml file which is available at $DOMAIN_HOME/WLSDM/config/config.xml

  2. If you have any problem while wizard and you are unable to complete WLSDM wizard with the imported config; Just shutdown WebLogic AdminServer; edit config.xml file by rollbacking system.wlsdm.wizard.completion.status from 0 to 1. If you exit without save your current configurations should be kept.

I just wonder; why you need to do that?

If you don’t have much configuration or important data available for the relevant WebLogic domain; I am recommending you, trying re-fresh installation. https://wlsdm.com/docs/README#IX.Upgrade&Reinstall&Uninstall

Just shutdown AdminServer; delete $DOMAIN_HOME/WLSDM runtime folder; then start AdminServer again. This time the wizard still would be visible then you can import your WLSDM configuration again.

Hope these would help.

Regards,
