Brian Stansberry commented on WFLY-12733:
-----------------------------------------

[~cfang] Sorry, your question from November got buried.

We should avoid making accessing the management layer from application code a requirement for a feature.  An application user is not an administrative user and would not be trusted. To work around that the application would likely try to do things such that the application code is privileged, and by doing that they would be opening up a security hole.

> The EJB Timer has a way to persist timers in a database using datasources. It is described [here|https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/WFLY10/EJB3+Clustered+Database+Timers]. The database-data-store has an attribute called refresh-interval that define a time in milliseconds to refresh the timers reading the timers from database. Look this sample of configuration.

>                         <file-data-store name="default-file-store" path="timer-service-data" relative-to="jboss.server.data.dir"/>
>                         <database-data-store name="clustered-store" datasource-jndi-name="java:/jdbc/MyDataSource" partition="timer" refresh-interval="60000" allow-execution="true"/>
>                     </data-stores>
> {code}
> The RFE is to Wildfly provide a way to force the refresh programmatically.
