Pavel Janousek reopened AS7-3044:
---------------------------------



I'm not fully satisfied with present behavior.

If Realm is editable item, I can set it to something else... If so, there isn't any reason why we can't have the same user with two different realms (from admin PoV), but present behavior reject a such user (second attempt) as duplicated user.

Also it isn't a much more meaningful that although mgmt-users.properties is dedicated only for ManagementRealm, add-user script allows to add users with other realms to this file.

I think that definitive solution is set Realm in add-user script only informative (Read only) and not editable.

I'm also aware that add-user.sh isn't general tool for editing user/group/realms credentials in AS7 (compared to other JEE servers), it is suited only as simple shorthand for rights definition to Admin console - and therefore present behavior without explicit knowing this details could confuse some users too.

I think this is rather usability issue, not technical problem.

> bin/add-user.sh allows to create two identical users even you specify really the same input values (realm, login name and password). It created two lines in mgmt-users.properties.
