JBoss clustering (domain mode) in JBoss 7 versus clustering in JBoss 5

created by Willem Noorduin in Beginner's Corner - View the full discussion

We have the following architecture: 

 

  1. application1, which is clustered over two different servers and reacheable as (say): http://www.application1.nl/cluster1/application1
  2. application2, which is clustered over two different servers and reacheable as (say): http://www.application2.nl/cluster2/application2

 

We have implemented this in JBoss 5 and the upshot is, that the

 

<snip>

 

    ManagerBalancerName cluster1

 

    <Location /application1>

          ProxyPass balancer://cluster1/application1 stickysession=JSESSIONID|jsessionid nofailover=On

          ProxyPassReverse  balancer://cluster1/application1

     </Location

 

<snip>

 

part of the apache vhost www.application1.nl (for example) is matching the $PROFILE_HOME/deploy/mod-cluster.sar/META-INF/mod-cluster-jboss-beans.xml part:

 

<snip>

 

   <property name="balancer">cluster1</property>

 

<snip>

 

of the <bean name="HAModClusterService" class="org.jboss.modcluster.ha.HAModClusterService" mode="On Demand"> bean definition.

 

The same mechanism should also work for JBoss 7 (or JBoss-EAP6), but I haven't found out which parameter to set (for example in the mod-cluster configuration of the slave) [this is a question]. If I just start the node, we see the cluster in the mod_cluster-manager appearing under the first defined virtual host, which I think is a default behaviour.
