--------------------------------------
Summary: Console does not provide an option to kill a server if normal
shutdown is hung
Key: WFLY-7710
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-7710
Project: WildFly
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Web Console
Reporter: Brian Stansberry
Assignee: Harald Pehl
I'm experimenting with how an WildFly/EAP domain reacts to failure conditions and
noticed that the current console, if a server will not stop, will not provide an option to
kill the server.
My experiment involves a pathological app with a servlet that will never return from
it's deplpy() method, meaning the MSC service behind the servlet will never stop,
meaning a normal shutdown will never complete.
The EAP 6 console had "Stop" and "Force Shutdown" links for the
servers in the domain topology view. Current console has no "Force Shutdown".
EAP 6 console has it's own issues in this area, specifically that if the server
won't stop, the console reports it stopped anyway, and no longer provides the option
to stop or force shutdown. The current console is better in this regard; when the server
doesn't shut down the action selections for the server are still the same as if the
server was started. So it's just the kill/destroy that is missing.
See also related JIRA
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-2065 for how kill/destroy are
suboptimal on the server side. That's mostly an FYI in case during experiments with
this you find things are not behaving as you expect.
