I'm trying to use asadmin create-jvm-options to add equivalent of VM
option -Demma.rt.control.port=47651 into domain.xml.

I do this:

asadmin> create-jvm-options --passwordfile adminpassword.txt --user
admin --terse=true --host localhost --echo=true --port 4849
\-Demma.rt.control.port=47650
CLI147 Invalid command, mma.rt.control.port=47650
Use "help" command for a list of valid commands.

why this error?

The example from help shows:

EXAMPLES
      Example 1: Using the create-jvm-options command

      JVM options must start with a dash (-). Use the backslash
      (\) to escape the dash delimiter.

      asadmin> create-jvm-options --interactive=true --secure=true
Press enter to continue, q to quit:

      --passwordfile passwords.txt --terse=false --user admin
      --host localhost --port 4849 --target server
      \\-Dunixlocation=/root/example:-Dvariable=
      \$HOME:-Dwindowslocation=d\\:\\\sun\\\appserver:-Doption1=-value1
      Command create-jvm-options executed successfully

Usage shows:

asadmin> create-jvm-options
Usage: create-jvm-options [--terse=false] [--echo=false]
[--interactive=true] [--host localhost] [--port 4848|4849] [--secure |
-s] [--user admin_user] [--passwordfile file_name] [--profiler=false]
[--target target(Default server)]
(jvm_option_name[=jvm_option_value])[:jvm_option_name[=jvm_option_value]]*
CLI020 Operand is required.

What do I have to do to successfully create a VM arg in domain.xml using
asadmin create-jvm-options?
