Graceful shutdown without using cli?

Hi all!

I have two WildFly 9.0.2 servers where one of them has an application that consumes JMS messages from the other. Every time I stop (kill -15 pid or ctrl-c when running in foreground) the WildFly server with the application that consumes messages I end up with a lot of "Invocation cannot proceed as component is shutting down" in my logs. If I stop it using cli :shutdown, then all is well.

Is it possible to have WildFly perform a graceful shutdown without using cli?

Why don't you want to use cli?
You may also enter the shutown command as argument in the command line like:
jboss-cli.sh --connect --command=shutdown

AFAIK it is not possible to trigger graceful shutdown using kill/ctrl-c and neither is planned in near future, since CLI handles this use case effortlessly.

It's not so much that I don't want to use cli, it's just that I'm not in control of the startup/shutdown scripts as that is handled by the hosting service.

So why is the hosting service not able to include the cli command in the shutdown script?

I can make a change request to have them change it, but it would be easier for me if I could just set a flag in standalone.xml to make graceful shutdown the default.
