Hi,

Is there any way in Axis 1.3 to remotely start and stop single services?
With start and stop I don't mean to deploy and undeploy it. I just want
to stop Axis to answer client requests for specific services, and bring
them up again after some time. I know there have been similar
discussions on this list in the past, but I couldn't find a satisfying
solution in the archives.

Throughout my research, I could find three different possible
approaches:

1) Deploy an AdminServlet instance and set the axis.development.system
init param to true
2) Use the AdminService to do a full undeploy/deploy
3) Use that JMX code that happens to come with Axis 1.3


Ad (1) As the init param implies, this shouldn't be used in production.
It doesn't provide any security and there might be other issues I'm not
aware of.

Ad (2) My management application that issues the start and stop calls
really shouldn't be required to ship with the deployment descriptors for
the web services it manages. 

Ad (3) I couldn't find any documentation and only sparse discussions on
the list of how to use that code, although, as it seems, it sits in the
repository for quite some time. 

>From those possibilites, the JMX approach seems to provide the
functionality that comes closest to what I require. But how can I make
it work? Where are the MBeans registered? Should I use that feature at
all, or are there other possibilites?


Best regards,
Volker
