weblogic.Admin Command-Line Reference

WebLogic Server Command Reference

STOPCLUSTER

Forces all servers in a cluster to shut down without waiting for active sessions to complete.

To verify that the command succeeds for a given server instance, refer to the server's local message log and look for the following message:
<BEA-000238> <Shutdown has completed.>

Review the message time stamp to verify that it was generated by the server session for which you issued the stop command.

For more information about forced shutdowns, refer to "Forced Shutdown" in the Configuring and Managing WebLogic Server guide.
