Red Hat Training
A Red Hat training course is available for Red Hat JBoss Operations Network
11.4. Available Utility and Sample Scripts
Several scripts are provided that supply additional functionality, like simplified functions for parsing search results, deploying bundles, or managing drift. These utility scripts add functions without performing any concrete task. They are available as a reference for and extension to custom scripts. These example functions can be copied into a script file or can be loaded before a script is run, as in Section 6.1, “About Script Dependencies and Exporting Functions”.
A couple of scripts are available that both provide additional functions (for reference or ease of use) and also perform management tasks when run. This scripts can be used directly to manage resources, without having to write a custom script.
IMPORTANT
Utility and sample scripts have not been extensively tested and may not be updated between releases. These are included for convenience and for real-life, complete examples of writing server scripts.
Test these scripts for quality and consistency within your environment.

| cliRoot/rhq-remoting-cli-4.9.0.JON320GA/samples/modules/ |
| jbossas.js |
Defines several functions to manage EAP 6 / AS 7 resources, including deploying web applications and managing EAP clusters.
The same as the
samples/deploy-to-and-restart-JBAS.js and samples/add-as7-standalone-server-to-cluster.js scripts, but combined and written as a CommonJS module.
