Disaster Recovery Scripts for Managed Server MSI Startup

Question

I am trying to get some custom start scripts created for each of my managed servers in the event the admin console is down or server gets hosed. We use nodemanager to start the managed servers in a Windows environment. I have about 8 managed servers and they all use the same nodemanager classpath but all have different server start arguments (different memory settings, etc....) so I need to make different custom scripts for each.
Verbose Garbage Collection to Determine Heap Size .....this thread by Jay has been very helpful but so far I am just getting kicked back to the syntax screen like something is wrong in my script. Attached is the script and the output when I run it. Any help would be appreciated...thanks.

Hi,
Configuration: Weblogic 8.1SP2 on Windows 2000, 1 admin server and 14
managed
servers
whats the right way from these 2 scenarious to create a domain on managed
server
1. create domain on managed server using configuration wizard. Then point
to this
domain from administration server remote start tab(root directory). This
is what
we do so far.This is the best way to create managed servers for your domain.
>
2. Just enter user_projects/domains folder/$domain name$ in remote start
tab(root
directory)
on admin server console and when you start the managed server from
admin console
the domain folder and files will be created.
Yes, the managed server is started in this case at the root directory you specified.
The difference is in the
1. first case we see all scripts like startManagedWeblogic, setenv, boot.properties
etc
this may help(we still dont know) if one wants to bring up managed
server
manually using
startManagedServer.bat without using node manager.Yes, that is correct. You will need to edit the startManagedServer.bat to include
the admin server URL, username and paswword..
>
2. second case only 2-3 files get created like msi-config.xml and SerializedSystemIni.dat
Basically first case is superset of second case.
What is the experience of people in this regard?
thanks much
