[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-12048) outbound-socket-binding element should allow grouping to be referenced by JGroups socket-discovery-protocol

outbound-socket-binding element should allow grouping to be referenced by JGroups socket-discovery-protocol ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-12048 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-12048 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Clustering Affects Versions: 16.0.0.Final Reporter: Wolf-Dieter Fink Assignee: Radoslav Husar Priority: Major JGroups configuration can use two different ways to configure cluster detection ------ older configuration is via protocol properties -- <protocol type="TCPPING"> <property name="initial_hosts">host[7600]</property> ------ new configuration via socket reference <socket-discovery-protocol type="TCPPING" socket-bindings="ref-a ref-b"/> ... <outbound-socket-binding name="ref-a"> <remote-destination host="127.0.0.1" port="7600"/> </outbound-socket-binding> ----------- with the old option it is possible to use an expression to set all hosts in a cluster. The new one need to have all outbound connections listed which is harder to maintain. As an administrator I want to have the possibility to group the connections and only have one reference and the number of connections can be vary without changing multiple point in the configuration. So a configuration like this would enhance that <outbound-socket-binding-group> <outbound-socket-binding name="ref-a"> <remote-destination host="host1" port="7600"/> </outbound-socket-binding> <outbound-socket-binding name="ref-b"> <remote-destination host="host2" port="7600"/> </outbound-socket-binding> </outbound-socket-binding-group>
