Hello! We use the database locking mechanism in Karaf (2.2.2) to support Failover. We have to use the database locking machanism because we do not have a shared file system in place. We are also forced by PCI [1] to not use passwords in plain text. As I can see from the source code [2], Karaf doesn't support this right now (e.g. via Jasypt or so).
I would like to open a JIRA for it, if I didn't overlooked something and Karaf already support this requirement. At present, we hve to work around this by subclassing the DefaultJDBCLock and extend it for our own needs.
