I have some questions about state merging after network partitions in JBoss. I already know that JG merges the cluster view with the members that re-join the group and then calls (notifies) the application layer above to merge the state. I suppose this layer is JBoss' clustering code like HASessionState and others.
1. What does JBoss do when it merges the state of the beans, in particular SFSBs?
2. Where can I find the code that does the SFSB merging?
3. Is this state transfer blocking? If yes, does it block a single bean or the whole cluster?
4. Do all the beans get replicated on the joining node or only the ones that have changed?
Thanx,
Jaksa
