Bug 837129

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of JON product Bug #837126 +++

Description of problem:
If JBoss EAP server has become unstable due to OutOfMemoryError condition or other problem that prevents the JBoss AS 5 plug-in from obtaining a connection to the server/service, it is reported as DOWN and the shutdown operation invocation does not occur even when a script is used as the shutdown method.

The result is that an unstable or runaway EAP server can not be shutdown from the JON management UI.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.1.0

How reproducible:
Always

 
Actual results:
If EAP resource is shown with availability of UNKNOWN or DOWN, the shutdown operation is not performed and the operation result is: The server is already shut down.

Expected results:
The shutdown operation should still be invoked regardless of the availability of the EAP resource.

Additional info:
This is due to theo rg.rhq.plugins.jbossas5.ApplicationServerOperationsDelegate.shutDown() first retrieving the availability of the resource and if DOWN is returned, the method is aborted[1]. This prevent a custom shutdown script from performing a forced shutdown in the event the EAP server has become unresponsive (kill -2/kill -9).
