Description of problem: This is not usually a problem in dev environment where we have 30s scan intervals but could be a problem in the production where it is 5 minutes (which I think is beyond the threshold of people assuming something is still happening). Also usability-wise this is quite a strange behavior. This also is a problem for BZ 1022943 which adds new remote API and REST endpoint for working with plugins. Having 2 different workflows for descriptor-only and "full" plugins would be very hard to explain to users. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.11.0-SNAPSHOT How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a dummy (but valid) plugin descriptor 2. deploy it to the server Actual results: Notice the log message saying that it will be deployed on the next scan. Expected results: Deployment of descriptor-only plugin works the same as for full plugin jars. Additional info:
