My view is [Test-NodeA-29550|0], impl is org.jgroups.protocols.pbcast.CoordGmsImpl {noformat} The problem seems to be that it takes longer for the coordinator to install the initial view and update {{LOCAL_PING}}'s {{PingData}} then it takes the other node to retry the discovery process 10 times. In some cases there is no retry, because one node starts slightly faster, but it's not yet coordinator when the 2nd node does its discovery, and both nodes decide they should be coordinator: {noformat} 01:13:44,460 INFO (ForkThread-1,ConcurrentStartTest:[]) [GMS] Test-NodeA-5386: no members discovered after 3 ms: creating cluster as first member 01:13:44,463 TRACE (ForkThread-2,ConcurrentStartTest:[]) [GMS] Test-NodeB-51165: discovery took 1 ms, members: 1 rsps (0 coords) [done] 01:13:44,465 TRACE (ForkThread-2,ConcurrentStartTest:[]) [GMS] Test-NodeB-51165: could not determine coordinator from rsps 1 rsps (0 coords) [done] 01:13:44,465 TRACE (ForkThread-2,ConcurrentStartTest:[]) [GMS] Test-NodeB-51165: nodes to choose new coord from are: [Test-NodeB-51165, Test-NodeA-5386] 01:13:44,466 TRACE (ForkThread-2,ConcurrentStartTest:[]) [GMS] Test-NodeB-51165: I (Test-NodeB-51165) am the first of the nodes, will become coordinator 01:13:44,466 DEBUG (ForkThread-2,ConcurrentStartTest:[]) [GMS] Test-NodeB-51165: installing view [Test-NodeB-51165|0] (1) [Test-NodeB-51165] 01:13:44,466 DEBUG (ForkThread-1,ConcurrentStartTest:[]) [GMS] Test-NodeA-5386: installing view [Test-NodeA-5386|0] (1) [Test-NodeA-5386] {noformat} This second failure mode seems to go away if I move the {{discovery}} map access inside the {{synchronized}} block both in {{findMembers()}} and in {{down()}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v7.13.8#713008)
