Hi Paul,

Reopening the issue after providing you the right jgroups-subsystem info.

Thanks,

> In your mail related to WFLY-6749 you have said the below :-
> **The default stack contains the following failure detection protocols:
> FD_SOCK 
> FD_ALL
> These protocols are described here:
> http://www.jgroups.org/manual/index.html#FailureDetection
> I suspect that your method of simulating a failure - by disabling the network of the host machine is not being detected by FD_SOCK. It will however, be detected by FD_ALL, but only after 1 minute. The heartbeat timeout used by FD_ALL can be manipulated via the timeout property.
> e.g.
> <protocol type="FD_ALL" ><property name="timeout">60000</property></protocol>

> Thanks for the quick response on WFLY-6749.
> Based on your suggestion, I had a taken a look at the testing scenarios mentioned in "Table 29. Failure detection behavior" in the link that you provided- http://www.jgroups.org/manual/index.html#FailureDetection. No where its mentioned that disabling a network on a node, is a valid testing scenario in Wildfly cluster. 
> The Failover is working properly when the network on a node is disabled on a weblogic cluster for our application. However it doesn't work and it hampers the application functionality on Wildfly cluster when we try to disable the network on a node in Wildfly cluster.
> However as I said earlier, the failover on wildfly cluster works when we stop a node from admin console or give Ctrl + C to stop the services on a node.
> Would like to get a confirmation from you that disabling the network on a node is not the valid failover testing scenario for wildfly cluster.
> Also we tried to test the same failover scenario by Shutting down/power off a VM (node) in a wildfly cluster. It did not work for Windows Environment although it worked for linux environment. 
> Note: we are using Windows 2012 environment. Here is a link I found: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31218710/unable-to-stop-wildfly-8-2-service-on-windows
