uPortal 4.1/4.2 DB-backed PAGS store
With uPortal 4.1 there is an optional database-backed storage configuration for PAGS. To use the default XML-based configuration, see the XML-backed PAGS instructions below. With uPortal 4.2, the DB-backed PAGS (also called Entity-based PAGS or Entity PAGS) is the default configuration.
The advantage of the DB-backed PAGS store is that you can create or modify PAGS groups on the fly by importing the PAGS XML files so it is more dynamic than the XML-backed PAGS . Also DB-backed PAGS groups are required for certain features such as Multi-Tenancy that require dynamic PAGS groups.

Upgrading from XML-backed PAGS to database-backed PAGS
1. Update code base to 4.1
2. Incorporate your custom changes from PAGSGroupStoreConfig.xml into separate *.pags-group.xml files in uportal-war/src/main/data/default_entities/pags-group
3. Alter uportal-war/src/main/resources/properties/groups/compositeGroupServices.xml to switch from XML-based to database-based PAGS groups.
