I make a script to check if server is up or not, incase of it's down or not responding, i restart it. i use GETSTATE command
java weblogic.Admin -url t3://localhost:7001 -username weblogic -password weblogic GETSTATE managedServer1
i run it every minute to ensure the server is running, but it takes too long some times, although server is up and handeling requests.
if it help, using http instead of t3? if it's not related to used protocol what can i do to make it takes less time, Or how can i check server is really running and handeling requests or not ?
