Provided mechanism to disable configuration file backup ------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFCORE-3712 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-3712 Project: WildFly Core Issue Type: Enhancement Reporter: Ken Wills For certain use cases, e.g. cloud with non-writable storage, the automatic persistence backup of configuration files (standalone.xml etc) is not needed or desired. It would be nice to have a mechanism to disable this.
