Description of problem:

jboss ews cartridge should have a shared lib  directory to keep user jars

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:



Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:

jboss ews cartridge should have a share lib  directory to keep user jars. At present there is a symlink that points to :

lib -> /etc/alternatives/jbossews-2.0/lib

where all the jars are stored at node host. so only the jars present in above directory will be available to the user.


Expected results:

If the user wants his own specific jars there should be a shared lib directory.

Additional info:

To get user libs into the Tomcat lib directory, you can add onto the container classpath by modifying the `loader` properties in the `~/.openshift/config/catalina.properties` file, to for example load jars from a `${catalina.home}/webapps/lib/` directory. 

For eg :

common.loader=${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar

Due the lifecycle of OpenShift v2 this issue or feature enhancement is not longer being considered.
