(Automatically allocated by increment?) > The id is used everywhere in the shell to refer to the specific object instance. For example, when creating a Job, link id number are specified as from or to link. > Using of numbered id is simple for the implementation but the numbered id is very difficult to make reference and hard to remember. > It is a common practice to give a meaningful name to each instance and thus can be referenced with the name. This can dramatically increase the usability of the system. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
