Example Full command from command line: /home/rob/apps/java/jdk1.6.0_02/bin/java -Dprogram.name=run.sh -server -Xms128m -Xmx512m -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000 -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Djava.endorsed.dirs=/home/rob/apps/jboss/jboss-4.2.0.GA/lib/endorsed -classpath /home/rob/apps/jboss/jboss-4.2.0.GA/bin/run.jar:/home/rob/apps/java/jdk1.6.0_02/lib/tools.jar org.jboss.Main In the tooling? heh... as of now nothing. The closest we come to building a full command is making sure IPv4Stack is preferred where it needs to be. I'll make a JIRA to make sure I add an API for complete script mimicking. Our main use case here is to be able to stop the server from scanning, then we update our exploded deployed application incrementally without the server recognizing only half the changes, and then let the server resume scanning. If there'll be another way to do it in JBoss 5, that'd be great, but the primary goal is that the server doesn't try to reload an updating application while it's still being changed by us. Also, a way, either through JMX or some other method, to determine when the application has been completely loaded by the server, so that our tools can automatically open the web page for it. RIght now we open the web page right after we deploy, but often times the server hasn't reloaded the app yet and the user gets an unchanged page or an error page.
