Programmatically start/stop applications without admin server connection

Question

I know I can programmatically start/stop an application through WebLogic's deployment API, but the call needs to go through admin server. I was wondering if there's a way for an application to start/stop another application on the same managed server when the admin server is down. I remember a managed server could be started without an admin server (unless it's started for the first time). So I suppose there must be some way to programmatically start/stop local applications without an admin server as well.
Thank you for your help in advance.

Hai,
I read the Oracle weblogic wlst script document without Admin server you cannot connect the managed server through the WLST script. see the below lines
"The start command starts Managed Servers or clusters in a domain using Node Manager.
To use the start command, WLST must be connected to a running Administration Server.
To start Managed Servers without requiring a running Administration Server, use the
nmStart command with WLST connected to Node Manager."
"You shut down a server to which WLST is connected by entering the shutdown command
without any arguments.
When connected to a Managed Server instance, you only use the shutdown command to shut
down the Managed Server instance to which WLST is connected; you cannot shut down another
server while connected to a Managed Server instance.
WLST uses Node Manager to shut down a Managed Server. When shutting down a Managed
Server, Node Manager must be running.
In the event of an error, the command returns"
They are two option if you are using adminserver then we can stop the any Managed server.
The option is if you are using the nodemanager without admin server we can stop the any Managed server.
The last final solution to kill the particular Managed server pid.
