What is Jboss standalone.xml? what is the purpose of it?

Question

I know to run the JBoss we need the standalone.xml, but I do not understand the content in the standalone.xml file.

Can someone explain to me what is defined in it with an example?

Thanks

If you look in the $JBOSS_HOME/docs/schema there are several schemas that make up the standalone.xml file.

standalone.xml file contains all the information regarding modules used by the JBOSS or wildfly. If you want to know about each and every module then read this http://wildscribe.github.io/WildFly/15.0/index.html.

In addditon to this, if you want to learn about the attributes of the sub-systems then access https://developer.jboss.org/wiki/JBossDTDs
