      1) Install tomcat and tomcat-vault RPMs
      2) Configure tomcat-vault

      $ tail -n1 /etc/tomcat8/catalina.properties 
org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.PROPERTY_SOURCE=org.apache.tomcat.vault.util.PropertySourceVault

      3) Try and start tomcat using the vault digester and observe the following CNFE in the tomcat log:

      When installing the tomcat and tomcat-vault RPMs, users presently have to copy the tomcat-vault jar into the tomcat lib directory. That should not be a manual step in the RPM installation. We should include a symlink to it like we do for ecj and other dependencies so that users can simply install the RPM and configure tomcat to use the vault.
