Zero Management CLI extensions reference

This topic contains an alphabetical list of the additional commands that can be issued from the Zero command line when the application includes zero.management

info

Description

Retrieves the basic information required to access the application when it is in the running state. This usually includes the base URL and port numbers for the application once started but may include HTTPS settings or other information.

restart

Description

Causes the application runtime to be restarted. All configuration files will be reloaded as the process exits and is restarted. There is no resolve step in a restart of an application. While the restart command is faster than separate stop then start commands, changes to the application's ivy.xml or to the repository will not be picked up.

start

Description

Starts the application. The application is started as a background process, rather than in the foreground as when the run command is used. An resolve step is included as part of the start process, so any changes to the application's ivy.xml file or to the repository will be picked up.

status

Description

Retrieves the current state of the application. Valid states are STOPPED, STARTED, and UNKNOWN. UNKNOWN can occur if the application has a running process associated with it but it can not be reached via its base URL as reported by the info command.

stats

Description

Retrieves the current statistics for the application. Statistics available are dependent on the operating system and Java runtime environment that the application is using, but include request statistics, Java heap and memory information, and operating system process resource information.

stop

Description

Stops an application that is running. The application can either be in the foreground, if the zero run command was used, or in the background, as in the case that the zero start command was used to start the process.
