How do you bounce data sources via WLST? - weblogic

Question

Short Version:
I'm trying to find a real-world example of restartSystemResource() usage. Searched the internet and Oracle Knowledge Base and found nothing.
Long Version:
I'm trying to script via WLST for WebLogic 12c a way to update data sources and then bounce them. If I update data sources manually in the console they show up in the Restart Checklist (View changes and restarts) and then I can select them and click the Restart button. Trying to do the same thing via WLST, and I'm assuming the restartSystemResource method corresponds to the "Restart" console action.
When I connect() and run domainRuntime() and ls() I see the restartSystemResource() method. I've looked at the Oracle MBean Reference for restartSystemResource and frankly it's confusing as I'm not a Java programmer and I don't know how to interpret/create the argument requirements in Jython (Python). Any help would be much appreciated!
Operation Name "restartSystemResource" Parameters Object [] { }
where:
Signature String [] {
"weblogic.management.configuration.SystemResourceMBean" }

If I understand you correctly you want to restart Datasource via WLST.If so you can follow the below WLST commands(you can use them in WLST command mode or as script)
Note: Replace Strings below starting and ending with # with your own values. The example below restarts datasource #datasource_name# running in adminserver
connect('#username#','#password#','t3://localhost:#adminport#')
serverRuntime()
cd ('JDBCServiceRuntime/AdminServer/JDBCDataSourceRuntimeMBeans/#datasource_name#')
invoke('shutdown',objectArray, stringArray)
invoke('start',objectArray, stringArray)
Please refer : http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=2515 (its old . Just gave it as some of it might of help to you)
Edit:
Suspend weblogic datasource on command line. This thread will be of help. You can do cmo.stop() and cmo.start() for restarting instead of cmo.suspend() as the answer there was for suspend and resume.
