Overview

The management CLI is a command line administration tool that manages WildFly nodes running in both standalone and domain mode. The tool exercises the native management API of the application server. The CLI client is available for a managed domain or a standalone instance, allowing the user to control either the domain controller or the standalone server and execute management operations through a de-typed (string-driven) management model.

The Management CLI may be used to start and stop servers, deploy and undeploy applications, configure system settings and perform other administrative tasks. Operations can be performed in batch mode, allowing multiple tasks to be executed as a group. For servers running in domain mode, the CLI connects to the domain controller and can be used to manage the entire domain.

The Management CLI can perform all tasks the web-based [Management Console|JBoss7ManagementConsole] can perform, as well as many other lower level operations that are not available to the web-based administration tool.

CLI and Management Interfaces

CLI clients connect to the managed WildFly instances over management interfaces. There are two types of management interfaces: native and http. For more details on management interfaces see:
