Since we're in the mode of defining things, what is a "multi-domain notion?" I see it as a an ability to manage within the same tool multiple sets of servers where each set has it's own management policy. The sets of servers are conceptually distinct (hence the separate management policy / domain) but, generally for operational ease of use reasons, users wish to manage multiple domains from the same tool.
Right, which is why I don't see this as impacting what the domain.xml looks like. This notion exists above the servers and profileservice. We are told what domain we are operating in.
In the discussion we had at the OA&M meeting with the JON folks, we thought that the AS perspective of management ends with the domain . "Multi-domain" management was something that JON would offer, as a compelling difference. So our admin console, cli, and domain.xml interfaces would be limited to a domain. I still think this is the "right" approach.
