--------------------------------------------------------------
I have 2 standalone instances one is the +*admin-server*+ deployed with a *.war, the other is the *+operations-server+* deployed with a *.ear.   The +*admin-server*+ webapp provides a page for shutting down and starting the +*operations-server.  *+ I'm also allowing the user to reset which port the admin-server runs on and I do this through the CLI API to change the port and then issue a re-start to the +*admin-server. *+   My current problem is that when the +*admin-server*+ shutsdown, it takes down with it the currently running +*operations-server.*+

I have tried various ways of shutting down the +*admin-server :*+ 
1. calling an external script that executes command line CLI shutdown command (+ie "jboss-cli.sh --connect --controller=localhost:adminCliPort --command=:shutdown")++*
*+
2. issuing a CLI command via API, similarly to how the operations server is started and how port changes are made+
+
3. stopping the servicer that automatically restarts the +*admin-server*+ (I use /Library/LaunchDaemons/ file to create a service and on shutdown i issue a stop option for this service).

NOTE: The shutdown of the +*admin-server*+ is not a problem, I can get it to shutdown immediately and restarts fine.   Also the +*operations-server*+ shutsdown fairly well on its own (ie. when the "shutdown" button on the webapp is pressed).  So just to clarify, the problem is that I can't shutdown only the +*admin-server*+ , it always brings down both servers eventhough i'm using a CLI command pointing to the +*admin-server*+.

The 2 servers are running next to each other, meaning I made a copy of the jboss7/ distribution and named it admin-server/ therefore each server has its own bin/ and standalone/.   

Is this a known issue where the server that starts the 2nd server will always take down the 2nd server ?
Any help will be very much appreciated, I've been trying to get these 2 playing nice for a few days now.

Thank you
-Fabio
