HA-JNDI load balancing of remote lookups after a local lookup failed
--------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBAS-5577
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-5577
             Project: JBoss Application Server
          Issue Type: Feature Request
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: Clustering, Naming
            Reporter: Galder Zamarreno
         Assigned To: Galder Zamarreno


HA-JNDI load balancing only comes into play when talking to it remotely, 
or when the HA-JNDI proxy in the server does not belong to the same 
cluster as the target HA-JNDI proxy trying to get.

Any other time, HA-JNDI tries to do a lookup locally and if not found, asks 
the cluster. Now, out of those responses, HA-JNDI takes the first non null 
and non exception one and returns that and hence multiple calls to HA-JNDI 
can look as if they were not load balanced. 

In order to see some kind of load balancing in this situation, HA-JNDI would 
need to somehow be extended to keep track what was the last non local 
response returned back to the client and take that potentially into account 
when returning the next response.
