I've been using Tomcat for years, but I have been put on a new project which will be using both JBoss 6 and Infinispan on EC2. I am new to both JBoss 6 and configuring it in a cluster. After having read around a lot, I am having a lot of difficulty finding good documentation explaining how / where exactly to configure JBoss/Infinispan to work in a cluster.
I understand that both JB and IS use JGroups for the cluster communication. I am very much interested in using JDBC_PING protocol (http://community.jboss.org/wiki/JDBCPING), as it sounds ideal for my needs. But my problem is that I just do not understand where/how to start configuring JBoss to use it (ie: do I need a new jar file? Where do I find the jar, which config files must be modified/etc).
Can anyone please point me in the right direction? I've already read through the JBoss AS 5.1 Clustering Guide (http://docs.jboss.org/jbossclustering/cluster_guide/5.1/html/index.html) but I am no further ahead understanding how to properly configure this. Any help and/or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Eric
