[mod_cluster-dev] Cycling a node or entire domain

In mod-jk, we had the ability to disable and/or stop a worker. Disabling a wroker W meant that existing sessions would be served, but new sessions would not be created on W, until W was enabled again. I'd like to have the same capability in mod-cluster. It would be good to have * this capability added to /mod_cluster-manager and possibly * provide a script (in jboss/bin ?) which allows an admin to do the same thing, e.g. "./disable-worker.sh node2" or "./disable-domain D3" The functionality should include * Disabling a worker W * Stopping a worker W. Note that we can achive this by shutting W down, but 'stopping a worker' merely removes W from httpd's worker list, but doesn't require a shutdown of W (W would also not register with httpd at this point) * Starting a worker W. The opposite of stopping W. Have W resume registering with httpd * Enabling a worker W. Allows for new sessions to be created on W * Disabling / stopping / starting / enabling a domain D. Same as above, but for all workers in a given domain D. * It would be nice to be notified when all sessions in a disabled domain have expired Can we create a JIRA to do this ? -- Bela Ban Lead JGroups / Clustering Team JBoss - a division of Red Hat
