[jboss-as7-dev] Read a snapshot?

If you mean have the running server do a diff and then make a couple 
updates to bring itself into the state reflected by the snapshot, no.

You can tell the server to use a snapshot when it launches. E.g. if 
you'd created snapshot 20110630-172258657standalone.xml you could:

./standalone.sh --server-config=20110630-172258657

I believe you only have to include enough of 20110630-172.... to 
uniquely identify the snapshot.

Rich Sharples created a JIRA[1] last week to be able to trigger a server 
reload (a la what can be done with the :reload operation) while passing 
a snapshot name. Effect would be the reload would use the snapshot and 
not the current file.
