MobileFirst Server live update service configuration details

The live update service is packaged as a WAR application for us to deploy to the Liberty collective controller. We need to make some specific configurations for this application in the server.xml file of the Liberty collective controller.

The live update service WAR file is in mfp_install_dir/MobileFirstServer/mfp-live-update.war.

The context root of the live update service must define in this way: /<adminContextRoot>config. For example, if the context root of the administration service is /mfpadmin, then the context root of the live update service must be /mfpadminconfig.
