[keycloak-user] Keycloak Domain TCP Clustering of Sessions in AWS not auto-failing over to node

OK,

I originally had just the one channel and the same result. I added he other
channel when I was reading articles on JBOSS through RedHat.
Channel definition for two or more cache-container at JBoss EAP clustered
environment
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3880301

I've also used <protocol type="TCPPING"> with the same results

I've looked at that URL previously,
http://www.mastertheboss.com/jboss-server/jboss-cluster/how-to-configure-jboss-eap-and-wildfly-to-use-tcpping
It references a different way than most articles at the
beginning<socket-discovery-protocol
And it shows it using names and not IPs - I'm not sure if that's the new
way or you can also use IPs and it's using the standalone configuration, so
no need to look externally for other nodes on the network.
While most of the articles out there are using the legacy method which is
later addresses and what I'm using.
Even if I get it working as a stand-alone, it's not much help when there
are multiple .xml files which must be configured across the different
instances... i.e. domain.xml, host.xml, host-master.xml and host-slave.xml

I'm going to do more troubleshooting but with no errors in my logs
pertaining to the cluster outside of:
[org.jgroups.protocols.pbcast.GMS] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 50)
dev-master: no members discovered after 3004 ms: creating cluster as first
member
That doesn't give me a good place to troubleshoot.
Does anyone know if this is the correct response when running this command?
/profile=full-ha/subsystem=jgroups/channel=ee:write-
attribute(name=stack,value=tcpping)
{
    "outcome" => "success",
    "result" => undefined,
    "server-groups" => {"auth-server-group" => {"host" => {
        "dev-master" => {"dev-master" => {"response" => {"outcome" =>
"success"}}},
        "dev-slave1" => {"dev-slave1" => {"response" => {
            "outcome" => "success",
            "result" => undefined
        }}}
    }}}
}

No response from dev-slave1... is that normal?

Thanks for your help, this has been frustrating. I think we are going to
buy JBOSS support and move to RedHat SSO but for now it's simple Proof of
Concept and I'm just missing the full clustering aspect of it.
