Starting the application servers

There so many ways to do this. The below list gives a summery of all options. We will see them one by one

Windows service:
If you choose this option at the time creating on windows box you can start the server from the windows services.
First steps menu:
After you finished creating the application server, you will be presented with a first steps menu GUI. You can start the server from there also. You can get the first steps menu after wards from <profile_path>/bin /firststeps
Command line
You can start your applica tion servers from the command line also using the command startServer.sh.
On a stand alone server installation you can start the server from
<profile_name>/bin/startServer.sh
If you have more than 1 server you can user server name after the command like
<profile_name>/bin/startServer.sh server1
On a distributed environment or say if you have a deployment manager installed before starting the application servers you have to start the node agents. Follow the below steps to do that
=> <profile_name>/bin/startNode .sh
=> Once the node is started successfully you can start the application servers using
<profile_name>/bin/startServer.sh <server> [options].
The option here are if you have enabled the security for the server you have to give the username and password to start it.

Admin console:
=> Go to servers -> application servers.
=> Select the server you want to start by checking the box against it.
=> Click the start button at the top and wait for the status to change.
