[jboss-as7-dev] start/stop as7 server?

[Brian Stansberry]

You can't start a standalone AS process via the management API. The API 
will not support making native OS calls . You can't start a 
DomainController/HostController either. That has to be done via some 
external action.

https://github.com/jbossas/jboss-as/blob/master/arquillian/container-managed/src/main/java/org/jboss/as/arquillian/container/managed/JBossAsManagedContainer.java 
is a class that launches a separate standalone AS instance from within a 
test client. So that's an example of how to do this. It uses 
java.lang.Process, so it's up to the parent process to manage the 
lifecycle of the child, consume its streams etc.

You can shut down a standalone server via the "shutdown" operation (no 
params) on the root resource. You can cause a full reload of all 
services (very similiar effect to a restart) via the "reload" operation 
(no params) on the root resource.
