Description

Our convention (and general UNIX convention) is clear that file names should use dashes (-) rather than underscores (_) where possible. See http://www.rudder-project.org/foswiki/Development/GeneralGuidelines.

However, two of our files used on a regular basis use underscores for no apparent reason:

  • /opt/rudder/etc/force_technique_reload - force the webapp to reload techniques (checked periodically), should be renamed to /opt/rudder/etc/force-technique-reload
  • /opt/rudder/etc/force_inventory - forces an inventory on the next agent run, should be renamed to /opt/rudder/etc/force-inventory

Obviously, for script and user backwards compatibility, we should support both for a while, and warn about using the deprecated version.

Too risky for the consistency benefits (we tried to do it for policy_generation flag and ended up reverting it due to problems it introduced).
