Re: [jboss-user] [JBoss Cache] - Intermittent cache invalidation failures

I can easily recreate the problem in our live environment, by updating a cached entity on one node, then checking the same entity on another node. Approx 50% of the time, the cache hasn't invalidated on the 2nd node, so the older version of the entity is shown. I'm using a TCP multicast (because this is on EC2 so I can't use UDP) and there are currently 8 nodes in the cache. Debug logs aren't showing any messages that would indicate a problem and the logs are identical when the invalidation occurs and when it fails. Can anyone suggest suitable log setting that might show some more useful logs (switch all to trace level outputted far too much info to make sense of)? Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions! JBoss Cache v3.1.0 JGroups v2.6.7 Hibernate v3.3.2 The debug logs I get on the node that is updating the entity are a follows: 23 Jan 2013 17:04:38,536 [http-bio-8443-exec-8] DEBUG InvalidationInterceptor:244 - Is a CRUD method 23 Jan 2013 17:04:38,550 [http-bio-8443-exec-8] DEBUG InvalidationInterceptor:244 - Is a CRUD method 23 Jan 2013 17:04:38,550 [http-bio-8443-exec-8] DEBUG InvalidationInterceptor:381 - Cache [XX.XX.XX.XX:6800] replicating InvalidateCommand{fqn=/mbCache/configData/ENTITY/com.package.EntityName#4881} My cache settings are:     <!-- A config appropriate for entity/collection caching that          uses pessimistic locking -->     <cache-config name="pessimistic-entity">         <!-- Node locking scheme --> <attribute name="NodeLockingScheme">PESSIMISTIC</attribute> <!--             READ_COMMITTED is as strong as necessary for most             2nd Level Cache use cases.         --> <attribute name="IsolationLevel">READ_COMMITTED</attribute>         <!-- Mode of communication with peer caches.              INVALIDATION_SYNC is highly recommended as the mode for use              with entity and collection caches.         --> <attribute name="CacheMode">INVALIDATION_SYNC</attribute>         <!-- Name of cluster.
