JBoss 7 domain servers fail to find each other. Session failover not working

[harlander3000]

Hi,

Im trying to get to fedora 15 servers running JBoss 7.1.1.Final. I have everthing working except for session failover. I believe JGroups is not finding each other which might have something to do with the servers each having 2 IP addresses. One external and one internal address.

Is this related to https://community.jboss.org/thread/203530 . If it is i dont see the answer given on how to get this working?

Can some please help me with this? My logs are below and the domain.xml and host.xml files are attached.

Many thanks in advance.

Dave.

I have been using Fedora for many years now, the only thing I need to get sorted to get clustering working is disabling the firewall which is on by default. Can you retry after doing "sudo service iptables stop" ?

[harlander3000]

Hi Radoslav,

Im sorry but that didnt work. Have you got anything else i can try?

Thanks

Dave.

By default, AS7 uses UDP multicast for discovery. It could be the case that UDP multicast is not working for your network? With the firewall off, try to switch the default stack to TCP and instead of MPING configure TCPPING and setup initial members.

[harlander3000]

Sorry to be a painbut could you please give me an example of how to change this

                <stack name="tcp">

                    <transport type="TCP" socket-binding="jgroups-tcp" diagnostics-socket-binding="jgroups-diagnostics"/>

                    <protocol type="MPING" socket-binding="jgroups-mping"/>

                    <protocol type="MERGE2"/>

                    <protocol type="FD_SOCK" socket-binding="jgroups-tcp-fd"/>

                    <protocol type="FD"/>

                    <protocol type="VERIFY_SUSPECT"/>

                    <protocol type="BARRIER"/>

                    <protocol type="pbcast.NAKACK"/>

                    <protocol type="UNICAST2"/>

                </stack>

Hi Radoslav,

Many thanks for your help it worked.
