When passivation is set to false, changes in POJO are not passivated . What is missing? Class implements Serializable ---- not replicable . -------------------------------------------------------- Object rc = cacheManager.find( cacheKey ); //modify rc rc.setDate(date); Will the above change passivated to file system (FileCache laoder is configured) on its own or do I need to detach and attach the object again here.I am not seeing the changes passivated to secondary cache . Is the below code required? //cacheManager.detach(cacheKey) //cacheManager.attach(cacheKey) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- <!-- Cache Loader configuration block --> <attribute name="CacheLoaderConfig"> <config> <!-- if passivation is true, only the first cache loader is used; the rest are ignored --> <!-- passivation should be false to retain the data in secondary cache otherwise node will be deleted after loading to the memery --> <passivation>false</passivation> <!-- comma delimited FQNs to preload --> <!-- <preload>/ASOF_POSITION</preload> --> <shared>false</shared> <!-- we can now have multiple cache loaders, which get chained --> <cacheloader> <class>org.jboss.cache.loader.FileCacheLoader</class> <properties> location=e:/trash/jbosscache </properties> <!-- whether the cache loader writes are asynchronous --> <async>true</async> <!-- if set to true, purges the contents of this cache loader when the cache starts up.
