Setting timeout in weblogic.admin command

Question

Hello:
I run a script that checks the state of several thing in my platform. One of the commands I use in this script
is
java -cp .. weblogic.Admin localhost:7001 ..... GETSTATE
IS there anyway to set a timeout in this command for the case weblogic server is hang and doesn´t answer anything. I have tried using sun properties for connect timeout and readTimeout but they haven´t worked(I suppose that it is because weblogic.admin uses t3 instead http). I have thought to make the following
sleep 10|ps -efx| grep -i GETSTATE|grep -v grep|awk '{ print $2 }'|xargs kill -9 &
java -cp .. weblogic.Admin localhost:7001 ..... GETSTATE
but I don´t like at all this solution
Regards,
Mario.

hi sir,
I think in weblogic 9.2 weblogic.Admin utility is deprecated but it works in 9.2. We have better option than weblogic.Admin utility nothing but WLST. If u want to start using weblogic.Admin we have command
java weblogic.Admin -url adminhost:listenport -username xxxx -password xxxx START managedservername
java weblogic.Admin -url adminhost:listenport -username xxxx -password xxxx SHUTDOWN managedservername
java weblogic.Admin -url adminhost:listenport -username xxxx -password xxxx START clustername
java weblogic.Admin -url adminhost:listenport -username xxxx -password xxxx SHUTDOWN clustername
If u want to use WLST for starting managed servers and clusters
check the follwing steps.
1. java weblogic.WLST
2. startNodeManager()
3. TAKE ANOTHER COMMAND PROMPT START ADMIN SERVER
4. TAKE ANOTHER COMMAND PROMPT
java weblogic.WLST
5. start('man1','Server') or start('man1','Server','localhost:7003')
6. start('mycluster','Cluster')
7.shutdown('man1','Server') or start('man1','Server','localhost:7003')
8.shutdown('mycluster','Cluster')
