    Remote cluster ejb access

    mancinis

      Hi,

      I've a ear application deployed in a jboss cluster with two nodes, the application contains some stateless session beans.

      I wish to call this ejbs from another ear application deployed in another jboss cluster and from an application deployed
      in a standalone jboss instance (using the 'all' configuration).
      My problem is how to configure the remote references in the jboss.xml files.
      Usually (without any cluster involved) I use a configuration like this
      ....

      <ejb-name>ABean</ejb-name>
      <jndi-name>ejb/ABean</jndi-name>
      <ejb-ref>
      <ejb-ref-name>ejb/LucyServicesBeanRemote</ejb-ref-name>
      <jndi-name>jnp://remotehost1:1099/ejb/LucyServicesBean</jndi-name>
      </ejb-ref>

      ....

      With this configuration all works fine but I wish to use HAJNDI to benefit of the cluster features.
      I've tried something like following:

      ....

      <ejb-name>ABean</ejb-name>
      <jndi-name>ejb/ABean</jndi-name>
      <ejb-ref>
      <ejb-ref-name>ejb/LucyServicesBeanRemote</ejb-ref-name>
      <jndi-name>jnp://remotehost1:1100/ejb/LucyServicesBean</jndi-name>
      </ejb-ref>

      ....

      and
      ...

      <ejb-name>ABean</ejb-name>
      <jndi-name>ejb/ABean</jndi-name>
      <ejb-ref>
      <ejb-ref-name>ejb/LucyServicesBeanRemote</ejb-ref-name>
      <jndi-name>ejb/LucyServicesBean</jndi-name>
      </ejb-ref>

      ...
      modifying the jndi.properties to include

      java.naming.provider.url=remotehost1:1100,remotehost2:1100

      but with no success, I always have the exception NameNotBound, any ideas ?

      Thanks

            hi,

            when I use the remote reference

            <ejb-ref>
            <ejb-ref-name>ejb/LucyConfBeanRemote</ejb-ref-name>
            <jndi-name>jnp://RLLSIRFPAS01A:1100/ejb/LucyConfBean</jndi-name>
            </ejb-ref>

            I obtain the following exception:

              Don't try the second way; you shouldn't edit the conf/jndi.properties file.

              Can you enable TRACE logging for org.jnp and post what happens before the exception?

                Hi,

                with trace enabled there are only two rows before the exception:

                  Hi,

                  I wish to add some details, I've written a simple standalone application to call the ejb deloyed in the remote cluster.

                  I initialized the InitialContext in the following way

                  Properties jndiProps = new Properties();
                  jndiProps.setPropertyContext.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
                  jndiProps.setPropertyContext.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
                  jndiProps.setProperty(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://node1:1100, jnp://node2:1100");
                  InitialContext ic = new InitialContext(jndiProps);

                  and it works fine, the ejbs are found and called correctly.

                    A few questions:

                    1) In different posts, you've used "remotehost1", "RLLSIRFPAS01A" and "node1". I'm assuming these are all referring to the same thing; please correct me if I'm wrong. :-)

                    2) Is the partition name for "remotehost1" different from the partition name for the server making the call; e.g. the aren't both "DefaultPartition" or something?

                    3) In your example where you build up the naming properties yourself and do the call directly, does it work if you only include one server in the provider url:

                    jndiProps.setProperty(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://node1:1100");

                    I certainly expect it to work if you build up the naming environment yourself rather than using bean's ENC. But I'm not seeing why it would fail when you use the ENC. When you use the ENC, it first looks up a javax.naming.LinkRef in the local environment; that link ref provides the jnp://RLLSIRFPAS01A.local.sirfarma.it:1100/ejb/LucyUserBean name. That name should result in a remote call to RLLSIRFPAS01A.local.sirfarma to resolve the link and look up the bean, but it's clear from your stack trace that the call is staying local. It's not clear to me why.

                      Hi,

                      Yes they refer to the same thing, sorry I've mixed some examples with some real code extracted from the application

                      >2) Is the partition name for "remotehost1" different from the partition name >for the server making the call; e.g. the aren't both "DefaultPartition" or >something?

                      The partition names are the same and they are both "DefaultPartition", maybe this is the problem ?

                      >3) In your example where you build up the naming properties yourself and >do the call directly, does it work if you only include one server in the >provider url:
                      >jndiProps.setProperty(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://node1:1100");

                      yes it works fine with one server in the provider url

                        It's possible; worth changing one of them and seeing if that fixes it (and having different names is a good practice in general.)

                        Just start jboss including "-g SomePartitionName" in the startup command to change the name.

                        The HA-JNDI proxy has an optimization to try to route the call to a local server if it finds an HA-JNDI server associated with the same partition name in VM. That *might * be what's tripping you up.

                          Hi,

                          I've changed the partitions names and now it's working fine, thanks for your help.
                          Sorry for the delay in my feedback but I tested the solution only yesterday.

                          I've only another doubt, as I told before in my configuration I've a jboss cluster composed by two nodes (node1 and node2) and
                          a remote jboss client.
                          In the jboss.xml of the ejbs deployed on the client node I've the following reference:

                          <ejb-name>ABean</ejb-name>
                          <jndi-name>ejb/ABean</jndi-name>
                          <ejb-ref>
                          <ejb-ref-name>ejb/LucyServicesBeanRemote</ejb-ref-name>
                          <jndi-name>jnp://node1:1100/ejb/LucyServicesBean</jndi-name>
                          </ejb-ref>

                          I've verified that the load balancing is working and that failover is working if node1 or node2 stops.
                          But if 'node1' is stopped when the client is doing the first lookup (for example the jboss client starts with node1 stopped), obviously
                          I receive an exception.
                          Is there a way to list all the remote cluster nodes in the jboss.xml of the client ?
                          for example something like
                          <jndi-name>jnp://node1:1100/ejb/LucyServicesBean, jnp://node2:1100/ejb/LucyServicesBean</jndi-name>

                          (as I can do when I write a standalone client jndiProps.setProperty(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://node1:1100, jnp://node2:1100") )

                            Sorry, no. The jndi-name isn't parsed; doing that in jboss.xml would result in JBoss internally essentially doing this:

                            new InitialContext().lookup("jnp://node1:1100/ejb/LucyServicesBean, jnp://node2:1100/ejb/LucyServicesBean")
