wlstsh

wlstsh is not a widely recognized official product name in Oracle WebLogic Server documentation. It is most likely a misspelling or informal shorthand for the WebLogic Scripting Tool shell, commonly referred to as WLST or the WLST shell. WLST is a scripting interface used to administer WebLogic domains, primarily through a Python-like language based on Jython.

WLST operates as part of Oracle WebLogic Server and is designed to automate routine administration tasks. The shell itself is launched with a platform-specific script: wlst.sh on Unix-like systems or wlst.cmd on Windows, both typically located in the WL_HOME/common/bin directory of a WebLogic installation. When started, WLST provides an interactive prompt and can also execute scripts supplied as arguments. The scripts are written in a Python-like syntax and can import WebLogic classes to perform tasks such as configuring domains, managing resources, deploying applications, and controlling server instances.

Typical usage includes connecting to a target domain, creating or modifying resources, deploying or undeploying applications, starting and stopping servers, and exporting or updating configuration. WLST supports both interactive operations and automated batch runs, making it suitable for development, testing, and production automation workflows.

If you encounter references to wlstsh in documentation or scripts, they most likely refer to the WLST shell itself, or are informal shorthand used within a particular team. The authoritative terms are WLST, wlst.sh, and wlst.cmd. See also WebLogic Server and WLST.
