In a production environment, WebLogic Server instances are often distributed across multiple domains, machines, and geographic locations. Node Manager is a WebLogic Server utility that enables you to start, shut down, and restart the administration server and managed servers from a remote location. Although Node Manager is not required, it is recommended if your WebLogic Server environment hosts applications with high availability requirements.

A Node Manager process is not associated with a specific WebLogic domain, but with a particular machine. You can use the same Node Manager process to control server instances from any WebLogic Server domain, as long as those server instances reside on the same machine as the Node Manager process.

This tutorial covers configuring and starting the Java-based Node Manager and using it to control Oracle WebLogic Server 12c (12.2.1) managed servers.
