Hi, I like this seemingly simple fix to a complex problem. While we could look at more advanced solutions to switching databases runtime at a later stage I think being able to switch between databases using a simple menu in the DHIS2 live system tray will help a lot to system admins and implementers that frequently need to switch databases on their laptops or desktops. If I understand you correctly Lars you suggest that we through the live app UI interaction allow the users to switch database, and in the background that triggers 1) a jetty shutdown + 2) edit/replace hibernate.properties + 3) jetty startup sequence? We could then with a bit more UI interaction through the live app allow the users to register multiple databases and then provide a switch db menu that lists all registered databases? How long does it take to shut down and start up jetty? 1 min? It's not perfect, but simplifies the life of the not-very-technical DHIS2 trainer etc. that needs to work on multiple databases.
