HI Victor,

I think your commit 85081d50ccd26aec9b43357515ae11826a72fb9f causes this problem, in this commit, you added the description for "consoleservice", however, the line is ended with a comma(should be a period), caused the lines after this line are considered as a new hash entry and ignored.

I understand that why this check was not in 2.10, with the current situation, I think we will use the conserver as the default console service in 2.10 also, do you think we need to put these changes into 2.10 also?

    Add new service related keyword into site table: consoleservice

    [Devops Task 10075]

    The behavior changes between 2.9.1 and 2.10.  The keyword is
    provided for those users who want to try out confluent in the 2.9.1
    timeframe.  Confluent is planned to be packaged better and the
    default console for 2.10.  conserver will still be shipped to
    provide console for the systems not supported by confluent.

sorry about that. I will fix it.

If we commit this to 2.10 also, on the upgrade path, how do we change the default value if configured to conserver?
