Application Status through WLST

Here is a way.

try:
cd('/ServerRuntimes/'+server_name+'/ApplicationRuntimes')
print '---------------------- Application status ---------------------'
apps = ls()
for appname in apps.split():
if appname != 'drw-':
cd('/ServerRuntimes/'+server_name+'/ApplicationRuntimes/'+appname)
if getMBean('ComponentRuntimes'):
# we may not have a component runtime, so check first
cd('/ServerRuntimes/'+server_name+'/ApplicationRuntimes/'+appname+'/ComponentRuntimes')
components=ls()
for component in components.split():
if not component.endswith('.jar'):
if component != 'drw-':
cd('/ServerRuntimes/'+server_name+'/ApplicationRuntimes/'+appname+'/ComponentRuntimes/'+component)
status=str(get('Name'))+': '
istate=cmo.getDeploymentState()
if istate == 0:
istate='UNPREPARED'
if istate == 1:
istate='PREPARED'
if istate == 2:
istate='ACTIVE'
if istate == 3:
istate='NEW'
print component + ' has status : ' + istate
except WLSTException,e:
# this typically means the server is not active, just ignore
print "This Server has no Application"

Monitoring Messaging Bridges

try:
    mBeans=home.getMBeansByType("MessagingBridgeRuntime")
    print '---------------------- Messaging Bridge ---------------------'
    print
    for bean in mBeans:
        if server_name != bean.getObjectName().getLocation():
            continue
        print bean.getName() + " is " + str(bean.getDescription()) + " and " + str(bean.getState())
except:
    print "This server has no Messaging Bridge"
