Overview

There are several command line tools used to to start, stop, and monitor WAS ND processes and nodes. These tools only work on local servers and nodes. They cannot operate on a remote server or node.

You can also use the V6 console which runs in the deployment manager for the cell.

All command line tools function relative to a particular profile. If you run a command from...

app_server_root/bin

Refer to the command log file for additional information. When you use the -trace option for the command, the additional trace data is captured in the command log file. The directory location for the log files is under the default system log root directory, except for commands related to a specific server instance, in which case the log directory for that server is used. You can override the default location for the command log file using the -logfile option for the command.
