See:  https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBNADM-3511?focusedCommentId=12431636#action_12431636

To avoid having to perform a manual discovery of newly deployed ESB's, users should un-comment and modify the default value (24 hours) to a shorter time

In agent config file:


conf/agent-configuration.xml,

               <!--
               _______________________________________________________________
               rhq.agent.plugins.service-discovery.period-secs

               Defines how often a service discovery scan is run. This type
               of scan is used to find new services that have been added or
               removed from existing platforms and servers.
               The value is specified in seconds.
               -->
               <!--
               <entry key="rhq.agent.plugins.service-discovery.period-secs" value="86400"/>
               -->

Note:

This is only an issue for users who deploy ESB archives by manually copying the archive .esb files to the target server's /deploy directory.

Deploying an .esb archive file through the server > serverJBossSOA SOA_4.3.0.IR5 default (1099) > JBoss ESB Statistics  -> Inventory option results in the archive being discovered immediately.
Comment 4 Jaroslaw Kijanowski 2008-09-30 08:17:59 UTC 
Docs should also mention that: "The agent *won't* re-read this file by default. You need to specify the -c argument and point it at your config file."

24 hours?  And a special switch on the command line?

This is falling in the "too hard for average humans to use" category.

There should be some big warning some place on this topic.  It is common for a new ESB developer who deploy & undeploy dozens of .esb archives and services.  Also, how do I get the command line trick working when the agent should be running as a service in Windows? Something else that needs obvious docs.
