It's a serious pain in the neck to setup WebLogic (11g at the moment) to automatically stop and start along with the system startup/Shutdown. Oracle should seriously consider doing something about it. Ideally install as Windows Service as soon as a domain is configured. However until that happens we are on our own.
I search around the web if someone had created an ideal solution already a script/document that I could follow and get this going in matter of minutes but alas I couldn't find a complete solution. I found bits and pieces here and there. So I took them and tailored them to write this blog. So here are the steps (this document assumes you have already configured node manager as a service and it is running)

I found bits and pieces here and there. So I took them and tailored them to write this blog. So here are the steps (this document assumes you have already configured node manager as a service and it is running)
1. Make sure Node Manager credentials are set correctly in WebLogic Admin Console
Go to the WebLogic console in Domain Structure, click on Domain Name - top level (e.g. oam_domain), click on Security tab and under General sub-tab click Advanced. Set the Node Manger credentials here (e.g. weblogic / Password123)
2. Add those credentials are put in nm_password.properties
Find (or create) the nm_password.properties file under \config\nodemanager (e.g. - D:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\oam_domain\config\nodemanager). Add the Node Manager credentials to the file. e.g.-
username=weblogic
password=Password123
3. Create boot.properties for the Administration Server
Follow these steps to create the boot.properties file:
Go to \user_projects\domains\\servers\AdminServer\security directory. e.g.-
D:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\oam_domain/servers/AdminServer/security/
Use a text editor to create a file called boot.properties under the security directory. Enter the admin credentials. e.g-
username=weblogic
password=Password123
4. The scripts
A. weblogic.properties - Properties file used by scripts:
DOMAIN_NAME=oam_domain
MW_HOME=D:\\Oracle\\Middleware
DOMAIN_HOME=D:\\Oracle\\Middleware\\user_projects\\domains\\oam_domain
WEBLOGIC_USER=weblogic
WEBLOGIC_PASSWORD=Password123
HOST=myweblogicserver.company.com
NODEMANAGER_PORT=5556
ADMINSERVER_NAME=AdminServer
ADMINSERVER_PORT=7001
ADMINSERVER_URL=t3://myweblogicserver.company.com7001
MANAGEDSERVERS=oam_server,oim_server
B. startAdminServer.py - Starts the Admin Server

F. startup.bat - Batch file to start all servers sequentially
startAdminServer.bat && startManagedServer.bat
G. shutdown.bat - Batch file to stop all servers sequentially
stopManagedServer.bat & stopAdminServer.bat
5. Add scripts to system start-up / shutdown
Follow the steps provided here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770556.aspx to add startup.bat and shutdown.bat to the system startup and shutdown.
