  • one or more computers, including an application server environment comprising a JAVA EE application server, an administration server, and a managed server, executing thereon, together with;

    one or more partitions residing on the managed server, wherein each partition provides an administrative and runtime subdivision of a domain, andone or more resource groups residing on the managed server, wherein each of the one or more resource groups is associated with one of the one or more partitions, wherein each resource group references a resource group template, and wherein each resource group template includes one or more related applications together with resources upon which those applications depend;

    wherein the system provides, at the administration server, a lifecycle object, the lifecycle object associated with a targeted one of the one or more partitions and exposing a startup operation to an administration client of the administration server;

    wherein the administration server is configured to receive, from an administrator, via the administration client, a request to execute the startup operation, the startup operation being targeted to the targeted partition;

    wherein, when executed, the startup operation is communicated, via a remote method invocation, to the managed server, and wherein upon receiving the communicated startup operation, the managed server invokes a corresponding operation that initiates startup of the targeted partition including creating a runtime object associated with the targeted partition on the runtime tree of the managed server; and

    wherein the system provides a monitoring object in association with the startup operation, the monitoring object configured to allow the administrator to monitor a status of the startup operation.
