WebLogic Server Command Reference

## RESUME

Moves a server instance from the `STANDBY` state to the `RUNNING` state.

For more information about server states, refer to "Server Life Cycle" in the Configuring and Managing WebLogic Server guide.

### Syntax

>     java [ SSL Arguments ]
>          weblogic.Admin
>          [-url URL]
>          [ User Credentials Arguments ]
>        RESUME [targetServer]

Argument | Definition
--- | ---
-url `secure-protocol``://``listen-address:listen-port` | Because servers can be in the `STANDBY` state only if the domain-wide administration port is enabled, to resume a server you must specify the Administration Server and domain-wide administration port as follows: `t3s://``Admin-Server-listen-address:domain-wide-admin-port` or `https://``Admin-Server-listen-address:domain-wide-admin-port` For more information, refer to the -url entry in Table 1-3 on page 11 and Protocol Support.
`targetServer` | The name of the server to resume. If you do not specify a value, the command resumes the server that you specified in the `-url` argument.

### Example

The following example connects to the Administration Server and instructs it to resume a Managed Server:

>     java weblogic.Admin -url t3s://AdminHost:9002 -username weblogic
>     -password weblogic RESUME MedRecManagedServer
