This JIRA is based on feedback we received after the Andiamo BOF at JBoss World 2010:

> One of the drawbacks of the WebSphere API is that it is not always clear
> what gets modified on the file system when running certain commands. It
> is common practice to save a WebSphere config, then make the edits in
> the console and save the difference for reference. Then develop your
> wsadmin jython scripts so that the changes made by the script match
> those made manually in the console. WebSphere 7 made improvements in
> this space so that the admin console can show you the jython that makes
> the same change you made in the console. I would like to be able to look
> at a JBoss config file and write the API commands knowing exactly what
> it will change on the file system. Having the command line API match
> that used by the domain controller would make things more predictable
> when using both in one's environment.
