[disconnected /] connect
Connected to domain controller at localhost:9999

{
    "outcome" => "success",
    "result" => {
        "domain-results" => {"step-1" => {"name" => "/home/anil/as7/jboss-as/build/target/jboss-as-7.1.0.Alpha1-SNAPSHOT/domain/configuration/domain_xml_history/snapshot/20110908-165222603domain.xml"}},
        "server-operations" => undefined
    }
}
[domain@localhost:9999 /] help
For a list of commands available in the current context execute
help --commands
The resulting listing may depend on the current context. I.g. some of the commands
require an established connection to a controller (standalone or domain).
These commands won't appear in the listing unless the connection has been established.
Here are some of the most common supported commands:
cn (or cd)                - change the current node path to the argument;
connect                - connect to the specified host and port;
deploy                    - deploy an application;
help (or h)            - print this message;
history                - print or disable/enable/clear the history expansion.
ls                        - list the contents of the node path;
pwn (or pwd)            - prints the current working node;
quit (or q)            - quit the command line interface;
undeploy                - undeploy an application;
version                - prints the version and environment information.
add-jms-queue            - creates a new JMS queue
remove-jms-queue        - removes an existing JMS queue
add-jms-topic            - creates a new JMS topic
remove-jms-topic        - removes an existing JMS topic
add-jms-cf                - creates a new JMS connection factory
remove-jms-cf            - removes an existing JMS connection factory
data-source            - allows to add new, modify and remove existing data sources
xa-data-source            - allows to add new, modify and remove existing XA data sources
For a more detailed description of a specific command, execute the command with '--help' as the argument.
Tab-completion is supported for the commands, just press the tab key to start.
To use tab completion for operations requests start with './' or '/' and press the tab key
which will list the available node types or names.
If the operation request doesn't require a node path then start with ':' and press the tab key
('/:' and './:' are also possible).
Operation requests are expected to follow the format:
[node-type=node-name (, node-type=node-name)*] : operation-name ['('[name=value [, name=value]*]')']
e.g. /subsystem=web/connector=http:read-attribute(name=protocol)
Whitespaces between the separators are insignificant.
If the operation doesn't require arguments then the brackets '()' are optional.
Tab-completion for operation requests supports node types and names, operation names and the property names.
