Yes, we could think of doing something like that - maybe we should just
create a ManagedServer for all configured servers and make it the proxy.
It should be aware of the lifecyle/state of the server anyway and also
holds the associated managed connection.
Yes, that sounds like the right way to implement it.
Heiko/Ike/Emanuel/anyone -- any concerns about the "resource description
varies" issue?
What I mean is, for all other resources, read-resource-description will
return fixed content. For host=x,server=y it will vary depending on
whether the server is actually started. If not running, it will just
provide the operation to start the server and a "status" attribute,
which will tell you it's stopped. Once you start the server, then
read-resource-description will provide that, plus ops to stop and
restart the server, plus all the normal attributes and operations
exposed by the root resource of a server.
