Hi Lakshani, This depends on how the feature is defined. AFAIK currently we do not have a way to update configuration files (which are owned by one feature) when a feature is being installed, i.e., say feature, F1, requires the configuration file, C1, to be modified, but the C1 is packed in feature, F2, that is already installed in the product.
IMO defining where the configuration should reside, needs to be decided when creating a feature. It would be better if the feature contains its own configuration files and gets copied to required location as defined in the p2.inf of the feature. IMO for datasources, this can be handled by having a separate file to have the datasources, such as abc-datasources.xml and this file needs to be packed with the core feature for the product.
