[jboss-user] [JBossCache] - Simple question: Clustering with FileCacheLoader

[cypherhat]

I am using JBossCache in a WebSphere environment. I had been using a FileCacheLoader in LOCAL mode, although I hadn't set the CacheMode explicitly. So far, so good. 

Now, I want to enable clustering. I still want to use a FileExtendedCacheLoader; but, I want to replicate data across two WebSphere instances (in the same WS cluster.) I searched the documentation for the appropriate configuration, and, I am unclear how much I have to configure. 

I would expect that I'd have to add some configuration that allows each TreeCache to discover the other nodes in it's cluster. Thus, I see the ClusterConfig stanza in some example configurations. 

Is it enough just to set the cache mode to REPL_SYNC (I want synchronous replication)? 

Actually, a better way to ask this question is:

Here is my (very minimal) configuration. What do I have to add to enable clustering?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  | <config> 
  | 	<passivation>false</passivation> 
  | 	<preload>/nothing</preload> 
  | 	<cacheloader> 
  | 		<class>org.jboss.cache.loader.FileExtendedCacheLoader</class> 
  | 		<properties>location=/trp/GDU/cache</properties> 
  | 		<async>false</async> 
  | 		<shared>true</shared> 
  | 		<fetchPersistentState>false</fetchPersistentState> 
  | 		<purgeOnStartup>false</purgeOnStartup> 
  | 	</cacheloader> 
  | </config>
