Response

You can receive one or more responses, depending on how you are licensed and actual license usage at the time of your query.

block

(Optional) < Boolean flag— 0|1|true|false >

If the argument is set to 1 or true, the system waits until the server reaches a terminal state . Terminal states include running, failed, stopping, and importFailed.

Argument: Boolean

diagnostics

(Optional) < Boolean flag - ` 0|1|true|false` >

Select the diagnostic information that you want in your output:

threadDump –stack dumps of all threads in the server
statistics –output from all system timers
systemProperties –values of all java system properties
environmentVariables –values of all environment variables
settings –values of all server settings
serverInfo –output from getServerInfo call.

Argument: Boolean

serverStateOnly

(Optional)< Boolean flag - ` 0|1|true|false` >

If the argument is set to 1 or true, the system limits the response to the short form and causes ectool to return only the value of the serverStatus element as a simple string value.

Argument: Boolean

timeout

(Optional) This argument specifies the timeout for the element flag.

The default value is 120 seconds.

Argument: Integer

Positional arguments

None.

Response

Returns the current status of the server, including the log message generated during the startup sequence. This command returns different information depending on when and how it is called.

You will get a lengthy response if you connect with a session that has admin privileges or if the server is still in a bootstrap state. After the server enters the "running" state, it is able to perform access checks but displays only the short form until you log in.

A simple response:

<serverState>running</serverState>

shutdownServer

Shuts down the CloudBees CD/RO server. Shutting down the server can take as long as a couple of minutes, depending on the server activity level at the time the shutdown command is issued.

The CloudBees CD/RO server is composed of two processes. The main process is a Java Virtual Machine (JVM). The second process, called the "wrapper", is responsible for interacting with the native operating system as a service. This wrapper process is responsible for starting and stopping the main JVM process.
