Change colour of Glassfish 3.1 Community Edition Domain Application Server

Question

How do you change the default colour scheme on a Glassfish 3.1 community edition? To distinguish between different environments.

Answer 1

I didn't find an example but it looks like it is possible to change the layout of Glassfishs Admin UI via a so called integration-point which looks similar to this:

    <integration-point 
            id="myOwnBrand" 
            type="org.glassfish.admingui:customtheme" 
            priority="2" 
            content="myOwnBrand.properties" 
    />

The Oracle docs for Changing the Theme or Brand of the Administration Console contains some information about the different integration point, but there is example how the properties file should look like.

There is also a Custom Theme Plugin for GlassFish V3 Admin Console but I can't find any details about how to use that.
