We have one weblogic server, with 9 forms servers in it.
As nearly as I can figure, the load balancing is due to the fact that all 9
forms servers are configured into a single cluster, with round robin load
balancing.
Restarting the entire weblogic server did not fix the problem. When it came
back up, the load continued to be very unbalanced among the forms servers.
However, if I just shut down the single forms server that was overloaded and
brought it back up, things would start load balancing properly again.
I have no explanation for this, but it appears to have fixed the issue (in case
anyone was interested).

Hello Matt,
The loadbalancing is most likely a property of the Weblogic configuration, not
the forms server themselves. Can you take a look here and see what
configuration do you have?

The DBA who usually manages our FORMS sever environment is out.
I’ve got a server with one weblogic server, inside of which I have 9 Forms
servers. Usually, they do a decent job of managing themselves and balancing
the load across. Now, I’ve got 2 servers handling about 230 connections each,
while the rest of them are handling 20-30. Users are getting sporadic
FRM-92014 errors
(A network error or server failure has occurred The request was sent to the
wrong application server (not the one which created the session). The forms
client has attempted to migrate the session 5 time(s) without success. You
will need to restart your application).
‘These FRM- errors don’t start occurring until one of the forms servers gets
too overloaded.
Restarting the app server tier (all processes) multiple times has failed to
correct the issue. Most of the notes in can find on the internet and on
oracle support talk about restarting the various servers too quickly or in the
wrong order, but we’ve already tried slowing down the startup routines. It
makes no difference.
Does anybody know why the FORMS servers would stop load balancing or how to
persuade them to start again?
OS is Solaris 10 if it makes a difference.
