Konrad Windszus commented on JCRVLT-787:
----------------------------------------

[~joerghoh] Is this related to JCRVLT-755? Where do you expect those metrics to be emitted. At the end of the installation log?

>             Project: Jackrabbit FileVault
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Packaging
>    Affects Versions: 3.8.2

> We recently had an issue that the installation of a content package caused the deletion of a large content subtree; while the package worked as it should , installing the package was neither expected nor known.
> For that reason we just saw the result and it took a while to identify the package installation as the root-cause of this situation. This was complicated by the lack of know-how and familiarity of the investigating people with filevault and content packages.
> For that reason it would be great if filevault could provide a collection of metrics (nodes added, nodes deleted, etc) when a package has been successfully installed. 
> In this case the situation was like this: The filter.xml contained a rule for /content/foobar with no mode specified (so the default value of REPLACE was used), and in the package just a .content.xml for /content/foobar was included; that wiped the entire subtree (a few thousand nodes) in the repository below /content/foobar.
