The document describes various commands that can be used with the weblogic.Admin utility to perform administrative tasks on WebLogic Server instances from the command line. Some of the commands described include STORECONFIG to create a user configuration file, RESUME to change a server instance from standby to running state, SHUTDOWN to shut down a server instance gracefully, and START to start a managed server using Node Manager.
![weblogic.Admin utility
● Used to perform Administrative functions from command
prompt
● A Java Class
● Must be added to classpath and PATH
● Can be used in shell scripts
● For multiple invocations BATCHUPDATE can be used.

![weblogic.Admin
STORECONFIG Command
Creates a user-configuration file and an associated key file. The user-
configuration file contains an encrypted username and password.
The key file contains a secret key that is used to encrypt and decrypt the
username and password. Only the key file that originally encrypted the username
and password can decrypt the values. If you lose the key file, you must create a
new user-configuration and key file pair.

the RUNNING state.

![weblogic.Admin
SHUTDOWN Command
Gracefully shuts down the specified WebLogic Server instance.A graceful
shutdown gives WebLogic Server subsystems time to complete certain
application processing currently in progress. By default, a server instance waits
for pending HTTP sessions to finish as a part of the graceful shutdown. You can
override this behavior using the -ignoreExistingSessions argument.

![weblogic.Admin
CANCEL_SHUTDOWN Command
(Deprecated) The CANCEL_SHUTDOWN command cancels the SHUTDOWN command
for a specified WebLogic Server.
When you use the SHUTDOWN command, you can specify a delay (in seconds). An
administrator may cancel the shutdown command during the delay period. Be aware that
the SHUTDOWN command disables logins, and they remain disabled even after
cancelling the shutdown. Use the UNLOCK command to re-enable logins.
Syntax
java [ SSL Arguments ] weblogic.Admin [ Connection Arguments ] [ User Credentials
Arguments ] CANCEL_SHUTDOWN
Example
The following example cancels the shutdown of a WebLogic Server instance that runs
on a machine named ManagedHost and listens on port 8001:
java weblogic.Admin -url ManagedHost:8001 -username weblogic -password weblogic

![weblogic.Admin
FORCESHUTDOWN Command
Terminates a server instance without waiting for active sessions to complete.
If a server instance is in a deadlocked state, it can respond to weblogic.Admin commands
only if you have enabled the domain-wide administration port. (A deadlocked
server is one in which all threads are struck trying to acquire locks held by other
threads.) If you have not already enabled the domain-wide administration port,
your only option for shutting down the server instance is to kill the Java process
that is running the server. You will lose all session data.

![weblogic.Admin
DISCOVERMANAGEDSERVER
CommandCauses the Administration Server to re-establish administrative control over Managed
Servers. If the Administration Server fails while Managed Servers continue to run, or if
you shut down the Administration Server while Managed Servers continue to run, you
lose the ability to change the configuration or deploy modules to any server in the
domain. To regain this administrative ability, you must restart the Administration
Server. By default, an Administration Server finds the last known set of Managed
Servers and re-establishes a connection. If the Administration Server is unable to
automatically re-establish a connection to one or more Managed Servers during its
startup cycle, you can use this command to re-establish administrative control. For
example, you might have started a Managed Server in the STANDBY state and did not
resume the Managed Server before restarting the Administration Server. The
Administration Server discovers only Managed Servers that are in the RUNNING state.
Other factors can prevent the Administration Server from finding and re-connecting to
Managed Servers, and you can use this command any time you need to re-establish a
connection.

![weblogic.Admin
LOCK Command
(Deprecated) Locks a WebLogic Server instance against non-privileged logins. Any
subsequent login attempt initiates a security exception which may contain an optional
string message.
This command is privileged. It requires the password for the WebLogic Server
administrative user. Instead of using the LOCK command, start a server in the
STANDBY state. In this state, a server instance responds only to administrative requests
over the domain-wide administration port.

![weblogic.Admin
START Command
Starts a Managed Server using Node Manager. This command requires the following
environment:
The domain’s Administration Server must be running.
The Node Manager must be running on the Managed Server’s host machine.
The Managed Server must be configured to communicate with a Node Manager.
The Startup Mode field in the Administration Console determines whether a Managed
Server starts in the RUNNING state or STANDBY state.

![weblogic.Admin
STARTINSTANDBY Command
(Deprecated) Starts a Managed Server using Node Manager.
In previous releases, this command started a Managed Server using the Node Manager
andplaced it in a STANDBY state. In this state, a server is not accessible to requests
from external clients.
In the current release, the Startup Mode field in the Administration Console determines
the state in which a Managed Server starts, regardless of which command you use to
start the server Instance.

![weblogic.Admin
UNLOCK Command
(Deprecated) Unlocks the specified WebLogic Server after a LOCK operation. This
command is deprecated because the LOCK command is deprecated. Instead of LOCK
and UNLOCK, use STARTINSTANDY and RESUME.
Syntax
java [ SSL Arguments ] weblogic.Admin [-url URL]
[ User Credentials Arguments ]
UNLOCK
Example
In the following example, an administrator named adminuser with a password of
gumby1234
requests the unlocking of the WebLogic Server listening on port 7001 on machine
localhost:
java weblogic.Admin -url localhost:7001 -username adminuser
-password gumby1234 UNLOCK](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/weblogiccommandline-160506082942/85/Weblogic-Cluster-command-line-12-320.jpg)

Connects to a WebLogic Server instance and returns two numbers representing the total
time for each round trip and the average amount of time (in milliseconds) that each
connection is Maintained.

![weblogic.Admin
GETSTATE Command
Returns the current state of a server.
If a server instance is in a deadlocked state, it can respond to weblogic.Admin
commands only if you have enabled the domain-wide administration port. (A
deadlocked server is one in which all threads are struck trying to acquire locks held by
other threads.) If you have not already enabled the domain-wide administration port,
your only option is to shut down the server instance by killing the Java process that is
running the server. You will lose all session data.

HELP Command
Provides syntax and usage information for all WebLogic Server commands (by default)
or for a single command if a command value is specified on the HELP command line.
You can issue this command from any computer on which the WebLogic Server is
installed. You do not need to start a server instance to invoke this command, nor do you
need to supply user credentials.
Syntax
java weblogic.Admin HELP [COMMAND]
Example
In the following example, information about using the PING command is requested:
java weblogic.Admin HELP PING
The command returns the following:
