Hi all
I would like to ask how robust Infinispan/JGroups is to changes of date/time on one of its nodes.
Situation:
1. Let's have 3 nodes forming cluster
2. On one of this nodes change date - e.g. set date to 2 days earlier
Can Infinispan/JGroups handle that kind of change?
I am asking because according to following JGroups is not good with changing of time JGroups / Mailing Lists
Maybe my follow up question would be about JGroups specifically. How JGroups can handle setting of new date/time? E.g. when NTP server is configured to synchronize time in cluster.
How do you suggest to resolve case when there is need to change date/time on nodes which are forming cluster in Infinispan/JGroups?
Thanks for feedback
Tomas
If you need to change time in servers, the safest method is to do a rolling upgrade to another cluster of servers where time has been changed. This way you totally avoid messing up time in the current system.
