Setting Up Node Manager as a Windows Service
Administration Guide 3-19
To install Node Manager as a Windows Service, do the following:
1. Make a copy of the script
installNtService.cmd from the
install_dir/config/mydomain directory (install_dir is the root of the
WebLogic software installation) and rename it
installNMNtService.cmd.
2. Make a copy of the script
uninstallNtService.cmd from the
install_dir/config/mydomain directory (install_dir is the root of the
WebLogic software installation) and rename it
uninstallNMNtService.cmd.
3. Modify the script
installNMNtService.cmd to include the command line
instruction you want to use to start the Node Manager and make sure that you
modify the startup command to change the target startup class from
weblogic.Server to weblogic.nodemanager.NodeManager. For information
on command-line options, see Starting the Node Manager from the Command
Line.
4. Rename the service to an appropriate name such as
nodemanager.

is the one you use in the

Manager as a Windows service.

of the WebLogic software installation. For example:
c:\bea\wlserver6.1.
