[jboss-as7-dev] Passing Cloud Configuration.

[Robb Greathouse]

Hi,

We are putting JBoss 5.1.1 into the Amazon EC2 cloud.  There are some peculiarities of how EC2 wants to configure instances that we are running into.

EC2 wants to use a standard AMI - basically a standard image that anyone wanting to use JBoss would use.  They would then customize this image by passing parameters via a single user-data file.

While the user could ssh into the instance once it is started and manually change the settings; this is not considered user friendly.

Ideally, we would like to be able to pass any configuration variable via user-data.  These would include database settings, clustering settings, etc.

Robb,
