Setting attribute passivate-events-on-replicate via drm or cli does not take affect until operation :reload is used.
In case that the attribute ( <cluster-passivation-store name="infinispan" cache-container="ejb" passivate-events-on-replicate="false" />) is set directly in standalone*.xml configuration file the supposed functionality is working.

The test for this could be checked on:
