Starting the Node Manager

The Node Manager is the WebLogic Server utility to control the lifecycle—start, stop, restart—of the WebLogic Managed Server instances and the Administration Server.

In production environments, the Node Manager is needed to meet the high availability requirements.

In this recipe, the system administrator will learn how to start and stop the Node Manager.

Getting ready

The Node Manager is already installed with WebLogic Server 12c. There are two versions of the Node Manager: a Java version and a script version. This recipe will cover the Java version. The Java version is the most commonly used version, and it is more complete and more secure than the script version.
