[jboss-user] [JBossCache] - Behaviour of the cache in case of a node failure

Hi, I have a newbie question. I'd like to know how the Pojo cache (1.4.1) behaves in case of failure of a node in a 2 nodes cluster. Our Pojo cache is configured to perform synchronous replication and to be transactional (the JTA transaction manager of our application server is used). When a node is down and we call transactional methods that update objects in the cache, everything works fine without any error. So i guess there's a node state detection implemented as a multicast heartbeat or something equivalent. But: - what would be the behavior if an update of a cached object is done on a node and at the same time the other node crashes or can not be accessed ? Reading the docs it says that an exception is thrown (of which type ?) and the transaction is rolled back. - How does Jboss cache make the difference between a shutdown node and node that can not be reached (synchronisation can not be performed) due to network failure or a Jvm freeze ? Thanks in advance. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4006043#...
