Oracle WebLogic Server 11g Administration Handbook

Using WLST Without the Node Manager

You can't start or stop a Managed Server with WLST without first connecting to the Node Manager. However, you can use WLST commands to start the Admin Server without the Node Manager running. The following example shows how to start the Admin Server for the medrec domain after invoking WLST with the java weblogic.WLST command. (In a Windows server, you can simply execute the WebLogic Scripting Tool command from the Start menu.) Make sure you set the environment by running the setDomainEnv.cmd script before you do this.
