Hi Hugh The Web Console Configuration Manager tab allows for changing all configuration stored in the Configuration Admin service and/or described by the Metatype Service. Hence existing configuration is always displayed even if not described.
There is also currently no such thing as read-only configuration. Because at then end of the day: everything can be stored in a Configuration object and the Configuration Admin service does not care about it (as long as the data types of the configuration are supported). Now, the Web Console is not destined at regular passers-by users but at system administrators which can be expected to be knowledgable. So I don't this is such a huge problem -- but that's me ;-) To your question: While you cannot hide the configurations as of today, there would be a number of options: (a) define an empty descriptor file for the factory PID. This will then just show empty forms for the configuration. Such configurations can still be "unbound" or removed. (b) we add a Web Console configuration option to select whether to show or hide existing configurations for which no Metatype descriptor exists (such an option does not exist yet and would be an extension) Regards Felix Am 25.06.2013 um 00:27 schrieb Rodgers, Hugh: > Hello - > > We have Managed Service Factories (MSFs) that we programmatically create and > configure at runtime.
