Without getting into too much technical detail, but it's never possible to detect a failure with 100% accuracy until the failure is fixed. All you can ever do is failure suspect. With this approach to UIDs and multiple registration, we're always going to have garbage in the registry in the event of failures and it's never going to be possible for us to know for certain that we can/should remove an EPR. This is a long winded way of saying: we can punt this to a sys admin function for now. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3991339#...
