Description

Currently  knoxcli.sh is used to add alias as follows

{GATEWAY_HOME}/bin/knoxcli.sh  create-alias alias --cluster topology --value myValue

the limitation with this is that one has to be on the Knox machine to add alias.

The proposed feature will let users make a REST call using Knox admin api to add and delete alias.
