## Dotted Names

The following use of dotted names in `asadmin get` and `set` subcommands are not backward compatible:

- Default server name is `server` instead of `server1`

- .resource becomes domain.resources.resource

- .app-module becomes domain.applications.app-module

- Attributes names format is different, for example, poolResizeQuantity is now pool-resize-quantity

- Some aliases supported in Application Server 7 are not supported in Application Server 8.1

In Application Server 8.1, the `---passwordfile` option of the `asadmin` command does not read the `password.conf` file, and the upgrade tool does not upgrade this file. For information about creating a password file in Application Server 8.1, see the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.1 2005Q2 Update 2 Administration Guide.

The table below displays a one-to-one mapping of the incompatibilities in dotted names between Application Server 7 and 8.1. The compatible dotted names are not listed in this table.

Rows with note in previous table describe attribute names. In these instances, there is not a one-to-one relationship with the dotted names between Application Server 7 and 8.1.
