hbraun: kkhan: is there a wat to teach the wildcard handler for rrd not to include all resources?
[5:47pm] hbraun: it's redundant information
[5:47pm] hbraun: a way to teach
[5:47pm] kkhan: in access-control, or in plain r-r-d?
[5:47pm] kkhan: For plain r-r-d, I am not sure we can change that at this stage
[5:47pm] hbraun: both shold be possible it hink
[5:48pm] kkhan: since it has 'always' done it that way
[5:48pm] hbraun: ok, and for access control?
[5:49pm] kkhan: hbraun: I am not sure right now
[5:49pm] hbraun: kkhan: so when you request /subsystem=datasources/datasource=*:rrd() you only get a single representation?
[5:49pm] hbraun: kkhan: but do you see what I mean?
[5:51pm] kkhan: hbraun: So access-control is only included in the datasource=>* entry and not in datasource=>ExampleDS?
[5:51pm] bstansberry: sorry guys, somehow this room was closed in Colloquy
[5:51pm] hbraun: kkhan: no, what i mean is:
[5:52pm] hbraun: requests using wildcards to rrd() return a list of resources, including *
[5:52pm] hbraun: but each specific one as well
[5:52pm] hbraun: but the information returned is redundant
[5:53pm] hbraun: i wam wondering if we can change it to be more optimized (not return a list, but a single * resource represenataiton)
[5:53pm] hbraun: makes sense?
[5:54pm] kkhan: hbraun: I have no idea why it was done that way
[5:55pm] hbraun: but tou see the problem now?
[5:55pm] kkhan: But someone somewhere might be relying on that information
[5:55pm] kkhan: or is this new behaviour?
[5:55pm] hbraun: kkhan: that's no excuse not to optimize it some point
[5:55pm] hbraun: no, it's always been like that
[5:55pm] kkhan: I'll defer that one to bstansberry then
[5:55pm] hbraun: but the payload explodedes
[5:56pm] hbraun: bstansberry: do you have a minute?
[5:56pm] kkhan: I see what you mean though
[5:56pm] hbraun: kkhan: great
[5:56pm] kkhan: since the * and each subsystem will be the same static data
[5:57pm] hbraun: kkhan: exactly
[5:57pm] kkhan: and I guess each one gets access-control calculated as well
[5:57pm] hbraun: and you've also provided the "exceptions" element for access control meta data
[5:57pm] hbraun: +1
[5:57pm] hbraun: yes
[5:57pm] hbraun: a big mess
[5:57pm] hbraun: cannot be low foot print
[5:58pm] hbraun: it travels through the domain as well
[5:59pm] hbraun: IMO this is one improvement with great impact on performance, but very little probelms for the clients
[5:59pm] hbraun: besides: at the end of the day, we are the number one client anyway
[6:00pm] hbraun: kkhan: anyway, i'll discuss it with bstansberry when he's available
[6:01pm] hbraun: kkhan: but maybe that's something you can look at, while doing the other improvements?
[6:01pm] hbraun: regarding the actual scope of work and implications?
[6:01pm] kkhan: sure
[6:01pm] kkhan: since every time I switch branches I seem to always come back to this
[6:02pm] hbraun: kkhan: i think it was just derived from the way read-resource works
[6:03pm] hbraun: the result juggling in that case is correct
[6:03pm] hbraun: just for rrd() it doesn't make sense
[6:03pm] kkhan: hbraun: yeah I have the vague feeling too
