how can i make a cluster from default server config?

[elhanan]

hi..

i would like to know what are the configuration files and jars needed to turn the default server config into one that supports clustering ((only interested in trying to jbosses on the same machine) , or do i simply copy jboss-cluster.xml into 2 instances of jboss default and copy the missing jars from the lib of all?

Why not start off with the "all" configuration and if required remove any unwanted services from that config.

[elhanan]

because we allready have an existing configuration which started from the default config and i would not like to change it. (or at least it as least as possible).

so far all i did was copy the folowing jars the default config:

jboss-cache-jdk50.jar

jacorb.jar

jbossha.jar

jgroups.jar

and add the follwing cluster-service.xml which contains:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<server>
<mbean code="org.jboss.ha.framework.server.ClusterPartition"
    name="jboss:service=DefaultPartition">
        
    <!-- Name of the partition being built -->
    <attribute name="PartitionName">
        ${jboss.partition.name:DefaultPartition}
    </attribute>

    <!-- The address used to determine the node name -->
    <attribute name="NodeAddress">${jboss.bind.address}</attribute>

    <!-- Determine if deadlock detection is enabled -->
    <attribute name="DeadlockDetection">False</attribute>
    
    <!-- Max time (in ms) to wait for state transfer to complete.
        Increase for large states -->
    <attribute name="StateTransferTimeout">30000</attribute>
</mbean>
</server>

so far both jboss seems fine they go up..
