---------------------------------------
I was tempted to resolve this as "Won't Fix" because we have no plans to
support a modularized config file (it's been considered and rejected a few times
already) and I don't expect that to change any time soon. But this is a valid feature
request, so I'm not going to do that. But you shouldn't expect this to change.
monolithic config file and modules make deploying to JBossAS7 nasty

Key: AS7-5759
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5759
Project: Application Server 7
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Domain Management
Affects Versions: 7.1.3.Final (EAP)
Reporter: Paul Hinds
Previous versions of JBoss could be configured by copying files to the correct place.
Each server in the cluster had identical config, this made configuring JBoss just a case
of running rsync with files that you had an interest in.
Consider jboss-log4j.xml which was one file you could copy to setup logging. Now to setup
logging we need to hack standalone.xml with XSLT or some tool that we dont yet have in our
simple deployment system.
Previously we could rsync a new file to each server in the cluster and it would apply the
new logging at runtime. Now we would have to updates standalone.xml at runtime which is
not something that seems safe.
Adding a DataSource used to be a case of copy driver jar to /lib, copy -ds.xml to /deploy
that process is now complicated.
Port bindings ditto.
JMS ditto.
Is there any way the monolithic config could be split up? most importantly bringing back
external runtime configurable log4j config.
