[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-3281) Add a "force" attribute to CLI add operations to allow existing resources to be transparently recreated

Robert Reimann created AS7-3281: ----------------------------------- Summary: Add a "force" attribute to CLI add operations to allow existing resources to be transparently recreated Key: AS7-3281 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3281 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Feature Request Components: CLI Affects Versions: 7.1.0.CR1b Reporter: Robert Reimann Assignee: Alexey Loubyansky To allow for repeatable CLI script executions (e.g. in case of a missconfiguration like wrong IP or DB-Password provided) conditional logic is required to prevent "Duplicate resource" failures. These logic is typically contained in a wrapper script (shell script or another scripting language). Pseudocode: {code} exists = test if the resource to be (re-)added already exists if (exists) remove resource add resource {code} Adding a "force" or "override" attribute to the add operation (which recreates the resources transparently if necessary) would remove the need for conditional logic and additional wrapper scripts. A simple example, assuming that the logger to be added already exists: {code} /subsystem=logging/logger=com.arjuna:add(level=TRACE, force=true) {code} In such a case the existing logger should be removed and recreated with the new properties provided. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
