Jeff Ramsdale commented on ISPN-1149:
-------------------------------------

I have not discussed it on the forms or list. It seemed clear a port had to be provided and I don't want to have to provide one in case more than one server instance is deployed to the same machine. I am deploying Infinispan to a Rio container (http://www.rio-project.org), which means the container controls where the Infinispan service is deployed. Rio is based on Jini, so I can use a Jini service proxy (obtained via multicast service discovery) to create my HotRod smart client without knowing the coordinates (address:port) of a cluster member.

> When embedding a HotRodServer in my application I want to be able to start multiple instances on the same machine without having to track a pool of ports. HotRodServer should have an option to start up and obtain its own port, which I can then provide to my clients. In this fashion port bind collisions will not occur.
