             Summary: package installation should provide metrics
                 Key: JCRVLT-787
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCRVLT-787
             Project: Jackrabbit FileVault
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Packaging
    Affects Versions: 3.8.2
            Reporter: Joerg Hoh


We recently had an issue that the installation of a content package caused the 
deletion of a large content subtree; while the package worked as it should , 
installing the package was neither expected nor known.

For that reason we just saw the result and it took a while to identify the 
package installation as the root-cause of this situation. This was complicated 
by the lack of know-how and familiarity of the investigating people with 
filevault and content packages.

For that reason it would be great if filevault could provide a collection of 
metrics (nodes added, nodes deleted, etc) when a package has been successfully 
installed. 

In this case the situation was like this: The filter.xml contained a rule for 
/content/foobar with no mode specified (so the default value of REPLACE was 
used), and in the package just a .content.xml for /content/foobar was included; 
that wiped the entire subtree (a few thousand nodes) in the repository below 
/content/foobar.
