Cause:

Oracle Support Document: 2723339.1

The issue was happening because the pack command is being run using -managed=true option on a domain that's already created using unpack command, as following:

     a. Host 1 has a WebLogic domain with Admin and a managed server - Execute pack command with -managed=true option.

     b. Host 2 - Execute unpack command.

     c. Host 2 - Execute pack command with -managed=true option.

     d. Host 3 - Execute unpack command and it will fail with 60820: This domain is a managed domain. It has been scaled out from the original domain

 Solution:

Do not extend a domain which is already created using unpack after it's pack was run using -managed=true option.

In order to extend a domain pack should be executed on the host where the domain was created originally using the config wizard or unpack was executed on a host after it's pack was run using -managed=false option
