Benjamin Mahler commented on MESOS-9289: ---------------------------------------- I would suggest we re-create this ticket in the form of the problem (hard to "rename" a role), rather than a particular solution (add support for aliases). Can you do that [~lloesche]? > Ability to create role name aliases. > ------------------------------------ > > Key: MESOS-9289 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-9289 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Wish > Components: HTTP API, master > Reporter: Lukas Loesche > Priority: Minor > Labels: api, mesosphere > > I wish there was a way to create role name aliases. > Currently if I decide on a role name once within my org it's very hard to > ever change it later. This is visible in DC/OS where the role name > slave_public was chosen at a time when Agents were still called Slaves. > Without the ability to alias this role there's virtually zero chance of us > ever updating that name to public_agent. I would imagine that other > organisations run into similar issues once a role name is being used widely. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
