How to connect to remote server correctly

[colin74]

My code is:
try {
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, CONTEXT_FACTORY);
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, this._url);
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext(env);

// get MBeanServer
MBeanServerConnection mbs = (MBeanServerConnection) ctx.lookup("jmx/invoker/RMIAdaptor");
mbs.lookup(.....)
} catch (Exception e) {
}
It is running on localhost jboss server, it is used to connect to a remote jboss server.

The problem is:
If the remote jboss server is running, it is ok.
But if the remote server is down, it will get the local default context and then lookup in this context.

What I want is that if the remote server is down, it should go into the exception.
How to do it?
Or how to change the config in jboss and let it not to get the default context for my program if the remote server is down.

In your example code above, how are you populating the "this._url" value? Do you populate it with a different value if the remote server is not running?

Hi,
Even i've the same problem. When the remote server is up and running, my client code invokes the EJB in remote server. If the server is down instead of throwing exception, it looks up the localhost and invokes the EJB there.

could anyone help me resolve this isuue?

Thanks,
