Failure while joining jboss cache group/cluster

created by raj jha in JBoss Cache - View the full discussion

Hi,

 

Am using jboss cache in clustered way to be used accross the applications deployed on same or deiiferent jboss AS.

Same multicast ip address is being used to connect to the group (cluster for caching service). This connection to the jboss caching service happens while application bootstraps.

 

The problem occurs when one of the node (application/jboss AS) is restarted and it tries to join the group again for caching service. It hangs at this point and application does not come up. I could see the jboss AS pinging again and again to get the access to the group but fails.

 

Following is the configuration with which all application starts up and forms a cluster with given multicast IP address.

 

<attribute name="ClusterConfig">

        </attribute>

 

 

Below is what i could see in logs:
