ConnectionFactory availability monitoring
The connection factory appears to be available (green flag) even when all brokers are stopped
How is availability working for the connection factory subsystem?
Datasource resource continues to be reported as available when it has no connection to a database
Why is availability reported as UP when the resource's back-end content or connection is not available?
