    EJB invocations from a remote server instance and failed deployment if destination is not started

    markus78

      When using the existing example for ejb invocations from a remote server instance I need to start my servers in a specific order which is not really something I want to keep track of.

       

      If the client ServerA (with the EAR that has jboss-ejb-client.xml file in it) happens to start before its destinations ServerB i get the following, and a failed deployment.

      Is there some way to achive this without having to hard-code the server startup order? The problem is that my deployment is stopped since the EAR has the jboss-ejb-client.xml file and expects that outbound connector of ServerB ref to be up and running when ServerA starts to deploy.

       

      Can I configure this so that ServerA (client) deploys fine even if ServerB (destination) has not started?
