RMI lookup for cluster nodes

[stefe]

Hi!

When I have two or three JBoss instances running on one machine, how can I
make the InitialContext.lookup() find a distinguished one of them? The lookup
example from the doku only uses the server name which is obviously the same
for all instances.

serverName = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();
RMIAdaptor server = (RMIAdaptor) ic.lookup("jmx:" +serverName+ ":rmi");

Is there a way to use the NamingService port (i.e. 1099 or the numbers configured
for the other instances) for a selected lookup?


Thanks a lot

Stefan

I guess you are mixing two things: JNDI lookup and using a JMX invoker.

To lookup a specific JNDI tree, you can set the appropriate host:port setting in jndi.properties or use an explicit "new InitialContext (bla)" construct where bla contains your specific settings.

cheers,

Thanks a lot, now I can reach each instance with a port-specific InitialContext as I wanted. No, it did not take me a whole week to figure it out ;-), I have just been busy with other stuff and could only answer today.
