       tomcat8-instance-create - creates a Tomcat 8 instance

SYNOPSIS

       tomcat8-instance-create [OPTIONS] DIRECTORYNAME

DESCRIPTION

       The  tomcat8-instance-create  script  creates  a  directory  with  all  required  Tomcat 8
       CATALINA_BASE elements so that a separate Tomcat 8 instance with  its  own  configuration,
       libraries  or  web  applications  can be run by a user. bin/startup.sh and bin/shutdown.sh
       scripts are also generated to allow the instance to be started and stopped.

       DIRECTORYNAME
              The name of the directory where the instance will be created. It should  not  exist
              and will be created automatically.

OPTIONS

       -p HTTPPORT
              The  TCP  port  to  use for the default HTTP connector in the instance. The default
              port is 8080.

       -c CONTROLPORT
              The TCP port to use for Tomcat shutdown control port. The default port is 8005.

       -w MAGICWORD
              The magic word that sent to the control port  will  trigger  the  shutdown  of  the
              Tomcat instance. The default word is SHUTDOWN.
