Description Radim Hatlapatka 2014-03-21 11:15:17 UTC

Description of problem:
There is a need for supporting restart operation from Web console. If you apply/rollback patch you can choose that you will restart the server later but there is now way how to do it currently from the Web console.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): EAP 6.3.0.DR5


How reproducible: always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. apply a patch via web console and choose to restart the server later
2. there is message that reload is required in the message box, it should be rather restart is required
3. in Server overview there is only possible to reload the server which is not enough in this case

Actual results:
only reload operation is available (using reload ends up with (Service temporarily unavailable. Is the server is still booting?)


Expected results:
restart operation supported as well and only proper button is enabled based on the server state


Additional info:
As this breaks proper usability of apply/rollback patch via Web console (part of this RFE https://issues.jboss.org/browse/EAP6-18), I am considering this a bug and not a feature request

Comment 1 Harald Pehl 2014-03-23 11:05:18 UTC

It's too late to add this feature for 6.3.0. The user can always restart using the CLI. I suggest to postpone that RFE to 6.4.0

Comment 2 Radim Hatlapatka 2014-03-24 11:08:49 UTC

Ok, this should be at least well documented. 

I would suggest that basic information regarding need of restarting via CLI (or how to do it) should be also provided in the web console. Could be provided either in server status overview or when choosing whether restart server now or later when applying/rollbacking patch

Comment 3 Radim Hatlapatka 2014-03-24 11:21:03 UTC

From our POV this isn't RFE and this is definitely an UX issue and bug. Thereby it should be at least dokumented in EAP 6.3.0 in webconsole of how to do it.

Comment 4 Jakub Cechacek 2014-03-24 11:55:51 UTC

I have briefly discussed this with Harald and the outcome was that planning the UI would require more time due to domain mode which where the host restart functionality would also have to incorporate host selection. 


However this being said it is clear that the issue still have an impact on usability of patching mechanism through console and if not properly resolved this should be mentioned in documentation and (if possible) noted in patching wizard itself.

Comment 6 Harald Pehl 2014-04-02 13:29:07 UTC

Added a restart button to the patch manager UI. Furthermore an indicator ("Pending restart") is displayed next to the latest patch id.

Comment 7 Jakub Cechacek 2014-04-30 10:28:37 UTC

Verified 6.3.0.ER2
