[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFCORE-2526) Domain mode passed unwanted sys props to spawned servers

[Brian Stansberry (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-2526?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13377140#comment-13377140 ] 

Brian Stansberry commented on WFCORE-2526:
------------------------------------------

I think there will have to be some special setting, to avoid breaking existing uses, but doing it via the command line and not requiring xml should be possible. For example:

-Djboss.host.server-excluded-properties=jboss.modules.system.pkgs,java.util.logging.manager

or

--server-excluded-properties=jboss.modules.system.pkgs,java.util.logging.manager

I think the former would be a better fit for what I think you're doing, as it can be included in $HOST_CONTROLLER_JAVA_OPTS in domain.conf along with other agent settings you are using. The latter would need to be part of the args to domain.sh which are out of your direct control.

> This is related to WFCORE-350, except the solution to that only involves filtering out some but not all unwanted sys props.
> I would say the solution should involve any properties, not just jboss.server.xxx properties.
> In my case, I'm trying to inject a javaagent into the host controller but I do NOT want the javaagent in the spawned servers. Because my javaagent uses JBoss Logging (JUL) I'm forced to pass in "-Djboss.modules.system.pkgs=org.jboss.byteman,org.jboss.logmanager" and 
> "-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager" so the host controller can start up.
> But these gets passed to the spawned servers and causes them to fail to boot up (because while my -javaagent command line argument isn't passed to their JVM, the -D sys props are and those combination of sys props are deadly without a JUL-enabled javaagent).
