It would be a nice touch.
But what is the likelihood of using a command for something that is not installed on the server (perhaps intentionally)...isn't that putting the cart before the horse?
It's slightly different. It's like finding out what cart is capable of doing what when you have multiple carts and/or you are "used to" the cart's capabilities from a previous life.
Thus, with this we solve two problems: - letting user know that a capability needs to be added to the modular core. - letting a user (who's used to V2) to get there. Note that ANY distribution of GlassFish v2 had clustering support; whereas NONE of the GlassFish v3 distributions have clustering support!

Soliciting inputs from all of you regarding this interesting problem I am seeing with modular nature of the server.
The inspiration is drawn from Ubuntu. On my Ubuntu machine, when I say "svn", it says:
The program 'svn' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install *subversion*
Thus, it knows the "intent" of the user and helps him/her to get there.
Wouldn't it be nice to have something similar for asadmin especially since we are in a diverse environments of distributions like web profile, full Java EE 6 profile, cluster-aware installation/domain, or just a domain that's missing certain "capabilities" that might be available in update center? e.g. you do
asadmin migrate-timers ... on a domain/installation that has no EJB support and it comes back and says:
EJB support is currently not installed. You can install it by typing pkg install glassfish-v3-ejb (or whatever that is).
I am tempted to add this as a requirement in CLI spec. What are your thoughts? If we decide to do this, we need a lot of co-ordination across teams to do this.
Thank you, Kedar
