Don't require the exclusive management lock to run the "kill" or "destroy" ops on the HC ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFCORE-693 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-693 Project: WildFly Core Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Domain Management Reporter: Brian Stansberry Fix For: 2.0.0.Beta1 ServerProcessHandlers.execute is calling context.getServiceRegistry(true) in order to trigger an authorization check. Problem is that also means the exclusive lock needs to be acquired. There are other ways to handle this. See https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly-core/blob/master/server/src/main/java/... for a similar case. Side issue: the constructor for ServerProcessHandlers should be package-protected. Same with the "serverInventory" field. This isn't a bug, it's just being tidy and locking things down as much as possible.
