Non-clustering JBoss

[cake]

For my requirement, I need to have more than 1 Jboss server (about 5 to 6 Jboss servers) within the same subnet. Since I need to use Jboss.Net, I use the "all" configuration to start Jboss.

The first Jboss successfully starts up with my beans, web services, and JSPs (this Jboss is on a Windows XP machine). Then I try to start the 2nd Jboss server on a RH Linux 7.2 machine, Jboss hangs in the middle of startup.

My questions are:

1. Since Jboss clustering use IP multicast to discover the other Jboss machines, in my scenario, does Jboss try to setup clusters by itself?

2. If Question #1 is yes, what I need to do to disable clustering with specific machines? I don't want to totally disable it because I need to use cluster for some machines within the subnet.

Thanks.

remove cluster-service.xml from deploy. You may want to look at the cluster docs if you need to configure several clusters.
