| Deployment Order | Lower numbered classes are class-loaded before higher numbered classes |
| Arguments | Arguments that a server uses to initialize a class |
| Run Before Application Deployments | Specifies whether the targeted servers load and run this startup class before activating JMS and JDBC services and before starting deployment for applications and EJBs |
| Run Before Application Activations | Specifies whether the targeted servers load and run this startup class after activating JMS and JDBC services and before activating applications and EJBs |
Shutdown Classes
A shutdown class is a Java program that is automatically loaded and executed when the WebLogic server is shut down either from the admin console or by running shutdown command. Set the following properties in the core.domain container to define the shutdown classes in your platform blueprint.
| Property | Description |

| Name | A human-readable name for this entry |
| Targets | Target server(s) or cluster(s) for the shutdown class. |
| Class Name | Package-qualified name of the class to execute |
