[Hawkular-dev] inventory and resource config props

[John Mazzitelli]

And just for giggles, I tried something else. Leave the resource config definitions the same, but change their values. The agent can detect the current values (that are different from when they were originally stored in inventory) and it tries to send via bulk/ the new values, but Inventory retains the old values. It never updates the resource config property values to the new ones that the agent sends via bulk/

So, in short, it looks like once entities are added to inventory via bulk/ they can never be updated when sent via bulk/ again.

I think this must involve sync. I need the inventory folks to tell me how the agent can do what I want - clearly, bulk/ is the wrong way to do this.
