[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ISPN-1508) Failures during hotrod server cluster formation

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-1508?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Dan Berindei commented on ISPN-1508: ------------------------------------ Ok, looks like there was something else going on: the state transfer for a distributed cache may start before the state transfer for the topology cache. I'm not sure if it's because all the caches are started in parallel or if it only happens when the cluster forms through a merge (because getCache() will return on the 2nd node before doing any state transfer). The topology cache needs to be fully populated before we can create consistent hashes for the other caches, so if the topology cache's state transfer didn't run yet all the other (distributed) caches will fail to install the new cache view. We do retry to install the cache view, so this should only have caused some error messages on startup, but unfortunately there is another problem with the way cache view installation is cancelled. It allows the PREPARE_VIEW and ROLLBACK_VIEW commands to run in the reverse order on the remote nodes and seems to lead to a cycle of failed cache view installation. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
