REST server should be configurable
----------------------------------

                 Key: ISPN-281
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/ISPN-281
             Project: Infinispan
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Cache Server
    Affects Versions: 4.0.0.CR2
            Reporter: Manik Surtani
            Assignee: Michael Neale
             Fix For: 4.0.0.GA


Currently the WAR file we build and distribute uses a static cache configuration, embedded in the WAR file.  We need to think of a way to have this configurable.  One idea would be to ship with, say, 5 different config files in the WAR:

  * cache-local.xml
  * cache-dist-sync.xml
  * cache-dist-async.xml
  * cache-repl-sync.xml
  * cache-repl-async.xml

... and the servlet starts the appropriate config based on JVM params (eg., -Dinfinispan.server.rest.cfg=cache-local.xml)

Also, cache-local.xml should be the default since running the WAR file with incorrect or inappropriate cluster settings prevents startup.

Finally perhaps there should be a way to customise the cfg even further - perhaps the default web page could offer a way to upload a config file and restart the cache using this instead?
