Require flag to run deploy tool in disconnected mode
----------------------------------------------------

         Key: GERONIMO-840
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-840
     Project: Geronimo
        Type: Improvement
  Components: deployment  
    Versions: 1.0-M4    
    Reporter: Aaron Mulder
     Fix For: 1.0


Require a special flag to indicate that you believe the server is offline.  If 
that flag is not present and the deploy tool cannot connect to the server, it 
will error out.

Currently, if you run the server on a non-standard port, and then run a 
distribute command without a connection URL, it will conclude that the server 
is not running and try to run offline (and start a new kernel and touch the 
same config store and all)... that's just unpleasant.  Better that it knows you 
meant to be online and aren't, so it can give you an error.

On a related note, it would be nice to be able to provide a port for the 
default Geronimo connectivity without needing to provide the whole (quite ugly) 
URL.
