OK. So how about a separate stack that's available for OGM/HS etc
including CENTRAL_LOCK and COUNTER ? These 2 protocols incur almost no
overhead in passing messages down (as they pass every message down) and
a small overhead in the up-direction (as they check for presence of a
protocol-specific header).
The Coordination election isn't good enough as
- that node might not have Search running
- I'd like to distribute the load of different indexes on different
nodes, basically hashing on the index name to suggest a favourite
node.
OK
So if I have to add the stack at runtime.. the nodes not having my
services deployed yet won't have the protocol, I assume CENTRAL_LOCK
won't work properly if some nodes - especially the coordinator - don't
have it installed?
Correct. But if all of the nodes running HibernateSearch create the same
stack dynamically, and they're the only ones using it, then the view
will be including only those nodes, so their coordinator is correct
(although it may not be the same as the one of the main channel).
I already have the option to create a new Channel and bypass any
trouble, the point is I'd like to reuse the single channel, both for
efficiency reasons but also to guarantee consistent views, consistency
with mod_cluster, etc..
OK
