Domain Setup docs doesn't explain domain.xml vs host.xml -------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFCORE-1555 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-1555 Project: WildFly Core Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Domain Management Reporter: John Mazzitelli There looks to be some information missing from: https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY10/Domain+Setup Or at least it is confusing. Notice that some of the instructions have this: "(See domain/configuration/host.xml)" and in other parts it has this: "(See domain/configuration/domain.xml)" Other than that, there is no mention of "host.xml" versus "domain.xml". This is confusing because the names of the files seem to infer that "domain.xml" is the configuration for the domain controller and "host.xml" is the configuration for the slave host controllers, but that clearly isn't the case (as the instructions both say to edit host.xml to configure both DC and HC). Both DC and HC's config files have: <host xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:3.0"> ... as the root node, whereas domain.xml has "<domain>". The docs should make it clear what and when domain.xml is used versus host.xml. It still isn't clear to me when domain.xml is used/when it is parsed. I assume it is read in by the DC during initialization.
