I recently updated from jboss-as.7.1.0.CR1b to jboss-as.7.1.0.Final and want to shutdown running instance from the console. In previous versions the command

$JBOSS_HOME/bin/jboss-admin.sh --connect command=:shutdown

was available, but I do not see jboss-admin.sh in the bin directory or other shell scripts for shutting down the server.

For some reason the JBoss team decided to reorganize the scripts between minor revision upgrades. In any case, jboss-cli.sh is the replacement for jboss-admin.sh (they are for all intents and purposes the exact same script). So your new shutdown command is:

 ./jboss-cli.sh --connect command=:shutdown
