Setting Up Node Manager
Administration Guide 3-9
2. Fill in the fields on the Node Manager tab:
l The Listen Address is either the host name or IP address where the Node
Manager will be expecting requests from the Administration Server. This is
the listen address you specify when Starting the Node Manager.
l The Listen Port number must also match the port number you use when
starting the Node Manager on that machine.
l The certificate used by the Administration Server to talk to this Node
Manager. The default certificate is
config/demo.crt. It is recommended
that you get a new certificate for a production environment. See Managing
Security for information on how to do this.
l The certificate password is not displayed because it is encrypted. If you
change the certificate that is being used by Node Manager, you will need to
change the password to match the password that was used to encrypt the
private key in the new digital certificate.
l The trustedCerts file contains the list of certificate authorities that are
recognized. The default is
config/trusted.crt. The certificate authority
referred to in the digital certificate you are using must be listed in this file.

Step 3: Configure Startup Information for Managed Servers
For Node Manager to start the WebLogic Managed Server, it must be provided with
the startup parameters and options you want to use when starting that Managed Server.
To set this up:
1. Invoke the Administration Console, if it isn’t already running.
2. In the Administration Console, select server_name
→Configuration→Remote
Start, where server_name is the name of the Managed Server.
There are five fields here that can be filled out to provide configuration
information that the Administration Server will use when starting the target
Managed Server:
Note: If you don’t specify values for these fields and attempt to start the target
server from the Administration Console, the Node Manager will attempt to
start the target server with the values for these attributes that were used
when starting the Node Manager. The Node Manager will be able to start
