--------------------------------------------------------
Yes, the cluster changes should be explicitly stated. I thought about it, but
didn't write it down.
My thought would be that the global configuration changes would remain the same
even in cluster mode. Per transaction changes would be handle the same as the
overridables.

> In production, in order to improve site stability, it is imperative that TS
> never accidentally overwrite its own
> configuration files.
> For this reason, we'd like to request a switch be added to TS, preferably via
> the command line, that disables all
> automatic configuration file generation or other runtime behavioral changes
> initiated by any form of IPC other than
> 'traffic_line -x' (including the web interface, etc.)

> A very crucial request, in my opinion. If TS needs to be able to read
> command-line config changes on the fly, these
> changes should be stored in another config file (for example
> remap.config.local instead of remap.config). We have a
> patch config package that overwrites 4 of the config files under
> /home/conf/ts/, and with all packages
> we'd like to think that the content of these files can't change outside our
> control.

> traffic_line -x doesn't modify the configuration, it reloads the
> configuration files. If we want to have an option for
> this it would be good to have it as an option configuration file (CONFIG
> proxy.config.write_protect INT 1).
> It would be an equivalent of write protecting floppies (ahh the memories)...

> I don't think it would be a good idea to have this in the configuration file,
> as it would introduce a chicken/egg
> problem.

> So I'm not 100% positive that this isn't just a bad interaction. Now, it's
> only
> triggered when trafficserver is running, but usually what ends up happening
> is that we get a records.config which
> looks like it's the default config that comes with the trafficserver package.
> It's possible it's all one and the same issue, or we might have two issues.
