[jboss-user] [Beginners Corner] - How is shutdown.sh related to jmx-console?

[konstandinos]

Hi

I've figured out that in order to call shutdown.sh correctly from my /etc/init.d/jboss script (ie: when I type /etc/init.d/jboss stop) I need to use the arguments: -S -u username -p password

... and that this username/password pair is defined in JBOSS_HOME/server/default/conf/properties/jmx-console-users.properties

Now I'm wondering, what does the jmx-console webapp have to do with shutting down my JBoss instance? And since shutdown.sh is associated to jmx-console, why isn't run.sh?

I've followed the steps in securing my JBoss instance. Thus jmx-console isn't being used at all. I'm wanting to remove it alltogether, including its .properties files in the server's conf/ directory. But it seems shutting down my server correctly depends on the existenece of these .properties files.

Thanks.
