After looking at the JMX component documentation
(
http://docs.jboss.org/infinispan/5.1/apidocs/jmxComponents.html) and browsing around in
jconsole, I don't see the numOwners attribute for distributed caches exposed anywhere,
although I thought I had seen it before.
In any case, the only way I see numOwners being retrieved in the ISPN source is by calling
DistributionManager.locate for a particular key. Is there a way to retrieve the currently
configured value of numOwners, regardless of whether it's the default or was
overridden in the configuration?
