    How to set hearthbeat time for remoting keep_alive option

    markus78

      When using a remote ejb connection from one server to another I am trying to konfigure keep_alive so my other hardware and firewalls dont close the connection during long idle times.

       

       

      <remote-outbound-connection name="remote-ejb-connection" outbound-socket-binding-ref="remote-ejb">
      <properties>
      <property name="SSL_ENABLED" value="false"/>
      <property name="SASL_POLICY_NOANONYMOUS" value="false"/>
      <property name="KEEP_ALIVE" value="true"/>
      </properties>

       

      But how do I specify the "hearthbeat" time for the keep_alive signals? Is this configurable or is it some constant?

          Figured it out, adding this sets the time interval in milliseconds,

           

          <property name="org.jboss.remoting3.RemotingOptions.HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL" value="1000"/>

           

          Actually , when testing this it seems that the KEEP_ALIVE property is ignored if I specify the above property , so regardless if I have keep_alive true or false or not defined at all there is communication every 1000'th millisecond as specifyed in the HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL.

            Hello,

             

            I'm trying to set the HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL property in JBoss 7.1.2, it is throwing the following exception during JBoss startup (it looks like this tag is not defined):

            Caused by: javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException: ParseError at [row,col]:[512,17]

            Message: JBAS014789: Unexpected element '{urn:jboss:domain:remoting:1.1}properties' encountered

                    at org.jboss.as.controller.parsing.ParseUtils.unexpectedElement(ParseUtils.java:85) [jboss-as-controller-7.1.2.Final.jar:7.1.2.Final]

                    at org.jboss.as.remoting.RemotingSubsystem11Parser.parseOutboundConnections(RemotingSubsystem11Parser.java:420) [jboss-as-remoting-7.1.2.Final.jar:7.1.2.Final]

            This is the setup/property I have in my standalone.xml file:

                <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:remoting:1.1">

                        <connector name="remoting-connector" socket-binding="remoting"/>

                        <outbound-connections>

                            <remote-outbound-connection name="default" outbound-socket-binding-ref="default"/>

                            <remote-outbound-connection name="com.test.api" outbound-socket-binding-ref="test"/>

                            <properties>

                               <property name="SSL_ENABLED" value="false"/>

                               <property name="SASL_POLICY_NOANONYMOUS" value="false"/>

                               <property name="KEEP_ALIVE" value="true"/>

                               <property name="org.jboss.remoting3.RemotingOptions.HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL" value="1000"/>

                            </properties>

                        </outbound-connections>

                    </subsystem>

             

            Does the Heartbeat property work for you in JBoss 7.1.2? Could you please let me know the property definition? (ie, what file? how you have added the property?)

             

            Thank you in advance.
