I believe the two are very different so the standalone/domain difference
does not map onto the concept of different servers as in AS < 7.

In previous AS releases each of the 'servers' was always started by the
same AS process either JMX or MC backed - the selected 'server' was then
essentially the configuration to bootstrap that instance, these
configurations could then be copied to create a new configurations.

In AS7 the multiple configurations are achieved by having multiple files
in the standalone/configuration and domain/configuration folders.

I think any attempt to try and artificially group these in a parent
folder is just going to be potential for more confusion leading end
users to believe these folders are the configurations as we had before.

Brian,

Okay so does another name besides "server" make sense?

I know domain and standalone have very different features, but now that

I have been reading even more of the documents, to me these two things

are loosely equal and some consideration would be made for putting them

into the same directory for grouping purposes. I have said my piece,

just food for thought, and I think a good question to ask once everyone

is back at this on Monday.

Just a late Friday muse.

In the docs, we use the term "Server" to refer to a process that's

handling regular EE-ish requests, i.e. in AS < 7 what was an application

server instance.

When you run domain.sh you're launching 0..n of those plus the

controller processes, and those processes write to the domain dir. The

scope of what's in that dir is greater than "server".

Team,

Reading through the docs and descriptions of the two folders standalone

and domain (they were separated alphabetically by a modules directory),

wondering out loud to facilitate ease of transition use, does it make

sense to bundle those in a server directory?

Just a question? Apologize if if has already been discussed!!!
