that will be much higher a contributor does it. It will need to be
thoroughly discussed though.
For provisioning modules, I'm reluctant to add a lot of details to the
management API. That is, stuff like dependencies=["org.jboss.bar"],
imports=[...] exports=[...]. Besides being more work, it limits what can
be done to whatever jboss-modules config elements WF exposes. All that
stuff can be declared in a provided modules.xml.
Right, if that structure is likely
to change, then keeping it in XML is
better.
The main thing that needs to be worked out are the managed domain
semantics.
1) For a "config file" where does it end up on the host? How is it made
visible to the servers? Does it need to be visible to all servers, or
should that vary depending on server group? Note that filesystem
permissions may result in the server processes not having visibility to
the host controller process' configuration dir.
Perhaps the user could define
an extra value for "relative-to" through
mgmt API to point to an arbitrary dir in the FS, and use that.
Or perhaps the server process could ask for the file in a form of a
read-only hex-encoded property and store it.
2) When a new host is started, how is this content made available?
For
deployments their existence is tracked in domain.xml, so a new host
knows to pull down that content. Do we do that for these items? Or is
this just out of scope and it's up to the user to use admin-only mode
and use the /host=newhost:add... variant of these ops before bringing
the new host into the domain?
Again, reusing the channel between host controller
and the new server,
for transfering additional config files?
That would IMO be most transparent to the user. Not sure how to deal
with exceptional situations.
