[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-6754) add blocking option to start/stop/restart/reload commands for server groups

add blocking option to start/stop/restart/reload commands for server groups --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: AS7-6754 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-6754 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Domain Management Affects Versions: EAP 6.1.0.Alpha (7.2.0.Final) Reporter: Brad Maxwell Assignee: Emanuel Muckenhuber Fix For: 8.0.0.Alpha1 In domain mode, it is possible to block when restarting individual servers, this would be a useful enhancement to add the blocking option to the start/stop/restart of server groups. This option would be useful when writing management scripts to know when the servers have complete the operation. /host=master/server-config=example-server1:restart(blocking=true) /host=master/server-config=example-server1:stop(blocking=true) /host=master/server-config=example-server1:start(blocking=true) domain mode These would benefit from a blocking option /:restart-servers /:stop-servers /:start-servers As well as these /server-group=main-server-group:restart-servers() /server-group=main-server-group:stop-servers() /server-group=main-server-group:start-servers() standalone mode: In standalone mode, there is shutdown with a restart option, this would also benefit from adding a blocking argument when restarting or shutting down :shutdown(restart=true) It looks like :reload() does not have a blocking option either, reload essentially is restarting the server, from a scripting perspective there is not a nice way to call reload then then perform some other commands, currently you have to do a sleep and then try to invoke a command catch an exception and try again later. So :reload(blocking=true) would also be useful.
