[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBAS-5090) Use Channel.setInfo() to provide data to JGroups probe

Use Channel.setInfo() to provide data to JGroups probe ------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBAS-5090 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-5090 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Clustering Reporter: Brian Stansberry Assignee: Brian Stansberry Priority: Optional Fix For: Backlog Think about ways to take advantage of following from Bela Ban: Okay, I've added an "info" paremeter to Probe, so you can run JGroups/bin/probe.sh -timeout 1000 -query info and this will dump *any* information that was added via Channel.setInfo(String key,Object val). The val will be written to a StringBuilder, so make sure you place only values into info which have a meaningful toString(). This can be used to dump buddy replication information. However, any application which has access to a channel can add information which is useful on a probe, e.g. * JBossCache o Version o Buddy replication info o Number of nodes, attrs o Config info * Clustering o Different clusters a node is part of o Node name o Config info The Probe utility is quick and dirty and - since it uses IP multicasts - cannot dump more than 65K worth of data, so make sure you don't cram everything in there ...
