Quartz in Clustered Environment?

[homerlex]

Documentation on using Quartz in Jboss is pretty slim. I did find this page that was very helpful: http://www.len.ro/work/articles/jboss/creating-a-quartz-job (thanks Merilen) and I was able to get the sample working.

My question is about using Quartz in a JBoss cluster. Has anyone tried this? Any special documentation about how to setup Quartz to run in a JBoss cluster?

My understanding of Quartz clustering is that Quartz uses a database to manage which jobs have been fired, etc. I don't see anything about setting up db connections (or datasources) for Quartz in JBoss. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Afaik Quartz uses DefaultDS and in a clustered environment your servers are likely to use the same database for JMS etc.
