LWRP

THIS IS DEPRECATED

You cannot use a template resource to deploy the repo.jdbc.json config file because the OpenIDM service will open and modify that file outside of Chef. I wrote the LWRP to do the following:

• Open the config file and lock it to prevent other services from editing it.
• Modify one of the JSON 'connection' attributes.
• Save the config file and unlock it.

It works in that I know it will edit any entry in the connection block. However if a system service or OpenIDM ignores file lock attributes it may not matter. I also don't know whether this is really the best way to do this, but it seems to work.
