[jboss-as7-dev] issues with the management protocol

I was investing some hangs with the domain Heiko was seeing using the console: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-2535 This turned out to be a problem how transactional requests with the proxy controllers are handled. Basically what happens is when a request is executed on a remote controller, the message handler blocks until the operation is 'done' and the preparedResult was sent back to the proxyStepHandler, which then either tells the remote controller to keep or rollback the changes. The issue with this is that the message handler is blocking using the remote endpoint thread pool, meaning that if you have enough mgmt requests they end up blocking the endpoint completely and none of those operations can complete. I just moved that into the client side (since this one is waiting anyway), which should solve the issue: https://github.com/emuckenhuber/jboss-as/commit/f5e2d6b80f9199e408641e6a0... Since there seem to be other people looking into issues with the mgmt protocol as well - any thoughts? Thanks, Emanuel
