Back from vacation; plowed through the emails. Thanks Jaikiran for the post on how the location can be moved. Re: changing this for 5.1.1, I want to echo Emanuel's question: what's the issue for the console here? The SBM exposes an interface via the ProfileService ManagementView; that's the way a console should deal with this, which I would think would make the location of the file irrelevant. BTW, Emanuel, Scott and I got a SBM management interface working right before I went on vacation and I had no time to document it for you Heiko. That is now corrected: http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/ServiceBindingManagerManagementInterface I certainly agree that having this file be in a central location is the right thing to do for AS 6, but for 5.1.1 it becomes a kludge. It's been this way since 5.0.0 and I haven't heard any complaints about it from the community. Perhaps that just means people don't change this much. Hmm, one issue is if the SBM content is changed via the PS ManagementView, the changes are stored in the target server's data/attachments dir. So they don't apply to all nodes that might be using a given SBM config. View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4234806#...
