Adding a New Configuration Preference to the Agent
If you want to add a new configuration preference to the agent, do the following:
- Put it in agent-configuration.xml - fully document it in the comments like the rest
- Put it in embedded-agent-configuration.xml - fully document it in the comments like the rest
- Add a getter to AgentConfiguration
- Add a constant to AgentConfigurationConstants
- If this is a plugin container configuration, you probably just need to modify AgentConfiguration.getPluginContainerConfiguration() rather than creating a standalone AgentConfiguration.getXXX() method
- If this is a comm sender config, edit AgentConfiguration.getClientCommandSenderConfiguration appropriately
- Add the ability to set it by adding code to SetupPromptCommand
- Add it to on-plugin.xml in the agent plugin's <resource-configuration>
- You might have to add it to test-agent*-configuration.xml test files (in the agent module and agent plugin module) unless the hardcoded default is safe for the tests to use
- Add it to the agentspawn.properties agentspawn module
Server Configuration
If you added the configuration to the comm stuff (client sender config or service container config):
- You modify ClientCommandSenderConfiguration or ServerConfiguration[Constants]
- Modify rhq-container.build.xml so it generates the new setting in rhq-server.properties
- Edit server-comm-configuration.xml and server-comm-service.xml as appropriate
