[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JGRP-338) Anycast
[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-338?page=comments#action_12347727 ]
Bela Ban commented on JGRP-338:
-------------------------------
To do this, we need an additional target in a Message: a List or array of Addresses. The
transports then use whatever is more appropriate to send the message. Let N be the cluster
size and K be the subset to send the message to.:
UDP:
- if K < N/2: send K unicasts, else send a multicast and have all members not in K
discard the message
TCP:
- always send K unicasts
Anycast

Key: JGRP-338
URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-338
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Feature Request
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: Bela Ban
Assigned To: Bela Ban
Fix For: 2.5
Send a message to N target members, where N is less than the group size (multicast) and
more than 1 (unicast). This will allow for RpcDispatcher.callRemoteMethods() to provide a
list of target members, and each transport decides individually whether to use multicast
of multiple unicasts.
