All of the above commands are local meaning, when you execute one of the
abopve commands, it gets executed locally without contacting the server.
Pl. check again, Remote Commands get printed after Local Commands, for ex.
********** Local Commands **********
backup-domain
create-domain
delete-domain
introduction
list-commands
list-domains
restore-domain
start-database
start-domain
stop-database
stop-domain
********** Remote Commands **********
add-resources deploydir
create-auth-realm disable
create-file-user enable
