2.2. Setting CLI Environment Variables
The JBoss ON CLI utility is a Java application, so it supports a large variety of environment variables, JVM settings, and other Java options.
The Java settings and environment variables are defined in the
rhq-cli-env.sh|bat file.
TIP
The
rhq-cli-env.sh|bat file is fully annotated, so all available parameters are listed with full descriptions. If you want to change some of the JVM settings or parameters, read through the rhq-cli-env.sh|bat file to get an idea of what parameters are available.
Default values are supplied for most of these arguments, and those defaults are sufficient for most operating environments.
There is one environment variable which must be set for every installation: the Java home directory. This can be set by editing either the RHQ_CLI_JAVA_HOME or the RHQ_CLI_JAVA_EXE_FILE_PATH variable in the
rhq-cli-env.sh|bat file. For example:
RHQ_CLI_JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0.x86_64/jdk"
IMPORTANT
Do not edit the
rhq-cli.sh|bat file or attempt to set environment variables in that file. Environment variables and Java options should only be set in the rhq-cli-env.sh|bat file.
Editing the
rhq-cli.sh|bat file may cause unexpected behavior or prevent the utility from running.
