There is another config parameter instance.name based on which a fixed suffix is appended to the internal name. What happens to this parameter in the context of this fix? Also as part of this fix you are allowing to suffix the display name to internal name. Sometime back I saw a request in the cs-user list to allow account name/id to be appended to the internal instance name. Would it be possible to provide a list of well defined attributes (for e.g. display name, account etc.) + fixed suffix. - Koushik Das On Jan. 31, 2013, 7:21 p.m., Venkata Siva Vijayendra Bhamidipati wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
