What wsadmin object should the administrator use to write this script?

Within a WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment cell, a system administrator needs to write a script to determine if a particular server is stopped. It is important that the wsadmin script explicitly return a status of stopped as opposed to just failing.

What wsadmin object should the administrator use to write this script?
A . AdminApp
B . AdminTask
C . AdminConfig
D . AdminControl

Answer: D

Explanation:

Use the AdminControl object to invoke operational commands that manage objects for the application server.

Many of the AdminControl commands have multiple signatures so that they can either invoke in a raw mode using parameters that are specified by Java Management Extensions (JMX), or by using strings for parameters. In addition to operational commands, the AdminControl object supports some utility commands for tracing, reconnecting with a server, and converting data types.
