What is the cache-container "cluster" for?

[inspector]

Hi everybody,

I've been looking over the standalone-ha.xml a bit. In the infinispan subsystem I found several preconfigured cache-containers. But there was one named "cluster" which I couldn't find out what it is being used for. Additionally interesting about this container is, that for "web" and "ej"b there are also preconfigured versions for distribution mode which you can use by changing the default-cache of the container. But for "cluster" there is only a replicated version.

So what is the "cluster" container for?

This cache-container/cache is used internally by clustering subsystem, e.g. to store data about SingletonService.

You typically don't want to tamper with it.

Thanks, I just didn't think about singleton services and such stuff.
