remote ejb are not balanced
I succeded in connect a remote client to a server group with 2 running servers thanks to an hot fix (not distributed afaik) using the following client configuration
remote.connectionprovider.create.options.org.xnio.Options.SSL_ENABLED=false remote.connections=x1, x2 remote.connection.x1.host=127.0.0.1 remote.connection.x1.port = 4547 remote.connection.x1.connect.options.org.xnio.Options.SASL_POLICY_NOANONYMOUS=false remote.connection.x2.host=127.0.0.1 remote.connection.x2.port = 4647 remote.connection.x2.connect.options.org.xnio.Options.SASL_POLICY_NOANONYMOUS=false
This is possible in the domain thnx to a provided ejb-client-jar build installed from the file system
<dependency> <groupId>org.jboss</groupId> <artifactId>jboss-ejb-client</artifactId> <version>1.0.0.Beta8</version> <type>jar</type> <scope>runtime</scope> </dependency>
the problem is that calling the remote method within a simple loop (for 1 to 10), calls are logged always in a single node (first run, 10 calls in x1... second run, 10 calls in x2 and so on)
private void run() throws NamingException {
HelloWorlder proxy = (HelloWorlder) context
.lookup("ejb:/TestRemoteBean//HelloWorlderBean!com.hp.dragon.test.HelloWorlder");
for(int i=0;i<10;i++) {
String out = proxy.sayHello();
System.out.println(out);
}
}
now i expected that multiple remote connections replace the ha-jndi behavior (connect the first available, balance calls across cluster nodes)
i think this is a bug because i loose the balancing feature for remote clients... what are JBoss AS7 plans about remote proxies? How can i balance calls?
thank you for your time
PS failover is properly handled: if x1 is off, remote client succeds in calling x2
