Improvements to the load/unload/replace scripts generated by the Maven archetype
The XPF Maven archetype contains load.sh, unload.sh, and replace.sh scripts for managing the plugins loaded in a running Elastic Path Commerce service.
These scripts now enable the JMX management agent on the Elastic Path Commerce service if it hasn’t already been enabled. This change eliminates the following error message: Connect to the service using jConsole to initialize the management agent, and run this script again.
Additionally, these scripts now accept a service name instead of a process ID in the first parameter. This means that users no longer need to manually run jps to determine the process ID of a running Elastic Path Service; they can simply run the following:
./load.sh cortex 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT
