Thank you for the quick reply.
> Karaf 4.3 Configurations with array property values calls @modified every 2
> seconds
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: KARAF-6998
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-6998
> Project: Karaf
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: karaf
> Affects Versions: 4.3.0
> Reporter: Scott Ortel
> Priority: Major
>
> Configurations created with configadmin in 4.3 have two issues:
> 1) The configuration is always persisted as JSON by the JsonConfigInstaller
> in 'karaf.etc' and is therefore watched by the file installer. It seems this
> behavior should be governed by the 'felix.cm.dir' setting, which would allow
> these persisted configurations to be placed elsewhere or not at all. This
> differs from the .cfg CM persistence behavior.
> 2) When JsonConfigInstaller examines the configuration and compares it to the
> existing one (setConfig() line 83), by performing a simple .equals() on the
> 'old' and 'properties' hash tables. This does not property handle property
> values that are arrays (valid in OSGi 7). As you know a map simply compares
> the key values using .equals, which for arrays is '=='. This causes the
> configuration to always appear to be modified and the associated component is
> deactivated/activated/modified every 2 seconds.
>
> Thank you for Karaf and for considering this issue.
