[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JGRP-735) Discovery: ignore discovery responses from clients

Discovery: ignore discovery responses from clients -------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-735 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-735 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Bela Ban Assigned To: Bela Ban Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.7, 2.6.3 If we have 9 joining members (starting simultaneously) and 1 operational member X, and num_initial_rsps=5 and timeout=3000 ,then a joining member might receive 5 responses from other joining clients and *not* the one from the existing member. This is good when we have *initial* concurrent startups, but not when we have existing 'well-known' operational members running. FEATURE: add a flag 'ignore-client-responses' which will collect only responses from operational members (servers). In the above case, each joining member will either get a response from X, or time out after 5 secs. We could also define a min_operational_resps, which (enabled if > 0) defines the minimum number of responses which need to be received from operational member and ignores responses from client members. WORKAROUND: increase num_initial_mbrs and timeout
