1 SETLOCAL 2 3 set DOMAIN_NAME=Wonders_Domain 4 5 set USERDOMAIN_HOME=C:\BEA103\user_projects\domains\Wonders_Domain 6 7 set SERVER_NAME=AdminServer 8 9 set WL_HOME=C:\BEA103\wlserver_10.3 10 11 set WLS_USER=weblogic 12 13 set WLS_PW=weblogic 14 15 set PRODUCTION_MODE=true 16 17 set MEM_ARGS=-Xms512m –Xmx512m 18 19 call "%WL_HOME%\server\bin\installSvc.cmd" 20 21 ENDLOCAL

Installing Managed Server as Windows Service: If you want to install a Managed Server as a Windows service, you must include a variable that specifies the location of the domain’s Administration Server. The Managed Server must contact the Administration Server to retrieve its configuration data. The Administration Server (which is not a service) must be started before installing and starting Managed Server as a Windows service. Create an install script as below. —————————————————
1 echo off 2 SETLOCAL 3 4 set DOMAIN_NAME= Wonders_Domain 5 set USERDOMAIN_HOME= C:\BEA103\user_projects\domains\Wonders_Domain 6 set SERVER_NAME=ManagedServer1 7 set PRODUCTION_MODE=true 8 9 set WL_HOME=C:\BEA103\wlserver_10.3 10 11 set ADMIN_URL=http://<adminserver-host>:7501 12 13 set MEM_ARGS=-Xms40m -Xmx250m 14 15 call "%WL_HOME%\server\bin\installSvc.cmd"

NOTE: If you set up both an Administration Server and a Managed Server to run as Windows services on the same computer, you can specify that the Managed Server starts only after the Administration Server. In that scenario we need to pass the below argument while running the script. -delay:delay_milliseconds
For example: "%WL_HOME%\server\bin\beasvc" -install -svcname:"%DOMAIN_NAME%_%SERVER_NAME%" -delay:120000
2. After running this script in the command prompt you will observe a log statement such as “beasvc <Server> installed” You can check the same from the services list as well using the services.msc utility.
3. Verify whether the WebLogic Server is successfully installed as a service as below. Open a command window and enter the following command: set PATH=WL_HOME\server\bin;%PATH% Navigate to the WLS_SERVER_HOME/server/bin Enter: beasvc -debug “yourServiceName“ For Example: C:\BEA103\wlserver_10.3\server\bin>beasvc -debug “beasvc Wonders_Domain_AdminServer” 4. You can start / stop the server from the services.msc window or you can also use the below commands. Starting the service: net start “beasvc Wonders_Domain_AdminServer” Stopping the service: net stop “beasvc Wonders_Domain_AdminServer” Note: For each server instance that you set up as a Windows service, WebLogic Server creates a key in the Windows Registry underHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services. The registry entry contains such information as the name of the server and other startup arguments. Uninstall the WebLogic server as a windows service.
