Two JBoss instances - one JMS table set

[knorrmatthias]

Hi,

I have two JBoss instances which use Hypersonic as JMS store. Now I want to use another database and only ONE set of JMS tables. Later I want to have 10 or more instances and I don't want to duplicate the JMS tables.

My question now is: Does it work? Is JBoss able to handle this?

Thanks in advance,
Matthias

You have to have one server act as the server, the others as client.

Ah ok, I forgot to mention, all instances have deployed the same application and run like a cluster. So if one instance crashes the load will be "distribute" to the others. But I don't want to use clustering!
So it is not possible to use one instance as Server. If this server instance breaks down, the others are not able to use JMS.

Thanks for your answer, but I fear it doesn't solve my problem.

No idea someone?

Did you manage to find a solution to this? I have the same setup as you:
- 2 servers being load balanced, but hitting one database where the JMS tables reside.
- if one server crashes, the other is still available.

Thanks in advance.
