Ben Keen commented on COUCHDB-2390:
-----------------------------------
Final word before I start work on this ticket.
To repeat: I'll be adding a "Changes made to this page apply to the current
node only" on the Config + Create Admin pages - with maybe some additional
explanatory blurb (I'll speak to Brad Noble about the exact text to use). The
message would only ever appear for 2.x, not 1.x.
> Fauxton config, admin sections considered dangerous in 2.0

> Assignee: Ben Keen
> Priority: Blocker
>
> In Fauxton today, there is are 2 sections to edit config-file settings and to
> create new admins. Neither of these sections will work as intended in a
> clustered setup.
> Any Fauxton session will necessarily be speaking to a single machine. The
> config APIs and admin user info as exposed will only add that information to
> a single node's .ini file.
> We should hide these features in Fauxton for now (short-term fix) and correct
> the config /admin creation APIs to work correctly in a clustered setup
> (medium-term fix).
