Clean up Weblogic Server Cache

In many situations we would need to clean up weblogic server cache and we need to be careful while doing this. It's better to have a script which can do our job can help in reducing manual effort/human errors.

Following script can be run using 2 parameters (domain name & server name). This is required because there may be multiple domains in one machine and server name needs to mentioned as we can clean-up any server depending on the need basis.

clearWLCache.sh 

#!/bin/ksh

usage()
{
 echo "\n!!!!!Usage!!!!!!!"
 echo
 echo " clearWLCache.sh "
 echo "\ne.g. clearWLCache.sh myDomain myServer"
 echo
}

if [ $# -ne 2 ]
then
 usage
 exit 2
fi

domain=$1
server=$2
WLS_HOME=/opt/fmw

state=`cut -f1 -d ":" $WLS_HOME/domains/${domain}/servers/${server}/data/nodemanager/${server}.state`
echo "Server state is $state"

if [ $state = RUNNING -o $state = STARTING ]
then
    echo "Server is in $state mode, please shutdown and then use this script "
    exit
else

 if [ -d $WLS_HOME/domains/${domain}/servers/${server} ]
 then
   path=$WLS_HOME/domains/${domain}/servers/${server}
   rm -Rf $path/cache/*
   rm -Rf $path/tmp/*
   echo "Cache clean-up completed successfully"
   exit
 else
   echo ${domain} "or" ${server} "doesn't exists, please check"
   exit
 fi

fi

echo "There was some error, script not executed, please check the command/server name/admin name"
exit
