Steps to do Jboss clustering

[harish palepu]

Can anyone provide me the steps to do Jboss clustering.

[Peter Johnson]

JBoss in Action, chapters 12 and 13.

I would just like to point out that if you need to work with the JBoss application server, you really need this book. It has proven to be a great tutorial and reference for all aspects of JBoss I've yet had to deal with. The chapters on Clustering and Replication are terrific.

Really, you can't go wrong. Great job Peter and Javid!

Hi, I am trying to create nodes on different machines for jboss5.1 using the command " -c node1 -g DocsPartition -u 239.255.100.100 \ -b 152.144.119.207 - Djboss.messaging.ServerPeerID=1" in command prompt. But I am getting exception--> "Failed to boot JBoss: java.lang.RuntimeException:Error unmarshalling bootstrap.xml with jboss clustering". I tried searching in google but unable to resolve the issue. So I need help to solve the problem. Can any one help me on this?

Tried with both cases:
1)
run.bat -c node1 -g DocsPartition -u 239.255.100.100 \
-b 152.144.119.207 -Djboss.messaging.ServerPeerID=1
2)
run.bat -c node1 -g DocsPartition -u 239.255.100.100
-b 152.144.119.207 -Djboss.messaging.ServerPeerID=1

  
 
 
In detail I am getting the result after running the command as

Is that file present? How did you create the "node1" configuration?

[harish palepu]

The file is not present in W:\jboss-5.1.0.GA\server\node1\conf\bootstrap.xml.
But I copied "all" directory under %JBOSS_HOME%/server/ to "node1" directory.
Even then also its leading to some indifinete loop which consists of exceptions.

How to check whether the node is created or not???

Does that file exist under the all server directory? It exists in mine. Why didn't the file get copied when you created the node1 server directory? Perhaps you need to create the node1 server directory again?

ServerPeerID MUST BE UNIQUE for each node in a cluster So this must be other than 1 say 2 or 3 first node you have set it as 1
