Controlling Data Sources using weblogic.Admin

While WLST has become the primary direction when it comes to controlling and administering WebLogic. There are still simple ways using shell scripts which may be leveraged to perform simple administrative actions. This is helpful for administrators who are not familiar with the Python language or the WLST API and are looking for a quick way to to perform administrative actions which help understand the status of assets within WebLogic. As can be seen in the script below there are simple calls which allow for immediate results. These calls can be added into as a part of a larger script or suite of scripts which could allow the administrator to get a quick report on each of the data sources on a daily basis through the use of a CRON job.
