Command Line Interface (CLI) More information on using the CLI is at https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/Management+Clients https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/Management+Clients h2. I want to take a snapshot of what the current domain is You will have to use the CLI bin$ ./jboss-admin.sh You are disconnected at the moment. Type 'connect' to connect to the server or 'help' for the list of supported commands. [disconnected /] connect Connected to domain controller at localhost:9999 [domain@localhost:9999 /] :take-snapshot() {     "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.
