[Jackrabbit Wiki] Update of "ConfigurationOverview" by AlexanderKlimetschek

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Jackrabbit Wiki" for change notification.

The following page has been changed by AlexanderKlimetschek:
http://wiki.apache.org/jackrabbit/ConfigurationOverview

The comment on the change is:
added short overview of repository.xml and workspace.xml

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ Jackrabbit's main configuration lies in the so-called {{{repository.xml}}} file. It contains global configuration such as Login and Access Management, Versioning or ["Clustering"]. Then it defines how the actual data for a certain workspace should be stored by choosing a PersistenceManager and what search/query implementation to use by defining a SearchIndex.
+ 
+ For each workspace that was created, there will also be a {{{workspace.xml}}} file created inside the workspace home directory that will be used for the workspace - these files have to be changed, too, because the workspace-specific configuration inside {{{repository.xml}}} is only used as a template for new workspaces, ie. if you use the createWorkspace of the Jackrabbit API, the workspace.xml is just a copy of the Workspace element inside repository.xml. You can also manually create the workspace folder with a workspace.xml file to create a new workspace yourself (Note that depending on the persistence manager you will also have to setup a database and configure the access to it).
+ 
  The default configuration of Jackrabbit can be used in many cases. To find out more about configuration options, see:
