  | My application is deployed as a JAR in a cluster of JBoss nodes. It has to to perform some system-wide initialization when a node joins the partition, only if it is the first node of the partition. However, this must not repeat, say when other nodes join the partition or when the 'first' node fails.

check out Ch. 3 API of http://www.jgroups.org/javagroupsnew/docs/manual/pdf/manual.pdf

I haven't actually used this functionality, but it sounds like what you may need is to create a class that implements MembershipListener interface.
