Description

In a few scenarios, such as upgrading Drill or duplicating an existing Drill setup, options from the Drill Web UI to import and export storage plugin configurations will be helpful.

Can support exporting only one storage plugin configuration at a time (into a JSON file) or exporting all storage plugin configurations (a compressed dir with a JSON file for each plugin). Similarly for importing configurations, but with additional options to either overwrite an existing storage plugin with the same name or to add a new plugin with an different name).
