I've noted the following: 1. There's a clustering-standalone.xml configuration file in standalone/configuration that you can start the server with using ./standalone.sh -server-config=clustering-standalone.xml 2. This configuration differs from the standard config in that:1. the org.jboss.as.clustering extension is enabled 2. some additional items are configured in the urn:jboss:domain:osgi:1.0 subsystem 3. 2 new subsystems configured (jgroups and infinispan) 4. 6 new socket bindings added to the standard-sockets group for jgroups So exactly what feature set does this give you out of the box for clustering?  I'm guessing session replication between standalone instances with JGroups for intra-node communication and Infinispan for storage? Anything else? How does each instance determine which other instances it should be clustered with? Does this work with multiple instances on one machine (multi-homed or on different ports)? Can multiple standalone instances using "cluster" configuration live on the same network but not all be one cluster? Like 10 instances as 2 clusters of 5 for example? Are there any known changes that are going to be made to this feature set for GA ? Thanks in advance. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/602381#602381] Start a new discussion in JBoss AS7 Development at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
