Is there a CLI command to re-write the xml file with new version of xsd in JBoss EAP 6?

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP)
    • 6.x

Issue

  • While upgrading between minor versions of EAP, for example XML file should be updated with new version, like this :
6.2  <server xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:1.5">
6.3 <server xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:1.6">
  • Is there a CLI command to re-write the xml file with new version of xsd in higher version of EAP?

Resolution

New features in the new release, such as new subsystems, may not be activated if configuration files are copied from an older JBoss EAP 6 installation. To use these new features, it is necessary to compare and update the old configuration files with the ones from the new version.
  • If any new feature is required, then this needs to be merged manually to upgrade to jboss:domain:1.6 schema.

Note : The schema's are having versions because they contain some new features in them which are features of new versions of EAP. All the older schema versions are provided with every new incoming release of EAP. So even after upgrade to EAP 6, these features will remain same as in the previous EAP irrespective of schema version except for the new features. Whatever bugfixes and patches are released for a particular version of EAP are integrated into the next minor version and users get the bug fixes with no configuration changes needed.
