$ java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://localhost:9000 install-plugin findbugs
findbugs is neither a valid file, URL, nor a plugin artifact name in the update center
No update center data is retrieved yet from: http://updates.jenkins-ci.org/update-center.json
findbugs looks like a short plugin name. Did you mean 'null'?


# Specifying a full URL works!
$  java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://localhost:9020 install-plugin http://updates.jenkins-ci.org/download/plugins/AdaptivePlugin/0.1/AdaptivePlugin.hpi

Cloudformation remarks:

• Idempotent (Re-run of Stack creation) : Currently you can only create/delete a stack. If part of the create fails, default is to rollback all. You can adjust that, but I found no way to re-run the create so that it would create the missing pieces. Also if you destroy an instance by hand, this would come in handy to rebuild part of the stack
• Slowness: the creation process on paper look as if the dependencies are handled intelligently and possible speedier. I found creating individual instances in parallel faster than creating them in a stack
• Throttling limit: if you delete, create stack again (f.i. because it failed), I often get errors for throtling limit. I think this limit is not imposed on the regular creation of instances.
• If a creation fails, you have to delete the stack first. Maybe you need another state, so you don't need to delete it first (like state-terminated)
• Name limit: this only accepts alphanum , no spaces or dashes to make it more readable in the console.
