I've dealt with that. The problem is that CFMX Admin doesn't propagate changes across the WebSphere cluster. Other than that, it's robust.
What we did was make all the changes in CFMX's neo-*.xml files, and just used a script to copy those across the cluster. Much better than opening CFMX admin on all nodes! This worked with 30 to 90 instances of CFMX in our cluster (WAS v5.0 ND and v5.1 ND).
