[infinispan-dev] origin of cache events in Infinispan

[Mohan Dhawan]

Hi All,

Apologies for posting to the dev-list, but no one on the support forum
replied. :(

How does Infinispan determine the origin of the cache events ?
Specifically, when a CacheEntryModified or other notifications are
thrown, then how does Infinispan compute the origin of the event ?

In other words, if one uses ctx.getOrigin() within an interceptor, how
is the origin calculated ? Is is determined using TCP connections at the
receiver node or is it passed along with the message from the sender ?
In case it is the latter, then it is possible for a node to masquerade
as another node.

Also, is event.getGlobalTransaction().getAddress() equivalent to
ctx.getOrigin() ?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
mohan
