Re: [jopr-dev] rollback of ears/wars
We should discuss this further. As per the status call, I get the
feeling this is a one-off implementation via a custom operation in order
to implement rollback for a specific resource type.
Instead, what we should do is look into implementing this kind of
feature across all resource types by enhancing the content subsystem
(and "create resource using packages" feature).
Was this on the roadmap? AFAIK, this feature was not triaged nor on the
release schedule. That's why I was surprised when I saw it come over the
wire. But I could be wrong.

I still need to write documentation.
Basically:
- the create ear/war in inventory got an option to select if a backup
should be
created. If so, the original file will be moved to <file>.bak and the
new one deployed
- to roll back I added an operation that first moves file to
<file>.tmp.bak and tries then
to move <file>.bak to <file>. If this fails it moves <file>.tmp.bak
back to <file>

No - especially as the ear/war create is tied in the inventory and not
in the content subsystem.
