/**
 * 
 * This interface is responsible for handling configuration management. Configuraion changes include
 * 

 * 

 * Rebooting an entire cluster, in which case, all nodes have to load the new Axis2 configuration
 * in a consistent manner
 * 
 * 
 * Deploying a new service to a cluster or undeploying a service from a cluster
 * 
 * 
 * Changing the policies of a service deployed on the cluster
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * It is not mandatory to have a NodeManager in a node. In which case the cluster may be
 * used only for 
 * High Availability through context replication. However, it is difficult to imagine that
 * a cluster will be deployed in production with only context replication but without cluster
 * configuration management.
 * 
 * 
 * The implementation of this interface is set by the
 * {@link org.apache.axis2.deployment.ClusterBuilder}, by
 * reading the  "configurationManager" element in the axis2.xml
 * 

 * e.g.
