Jboss EAP 6.4 - starting servers on domain node automatically starting servers on slave node as well

[gsandeepry]

I have configured Jboss EAP cluster with two nodes on different physical server, one is master node with domain controller and other is slave node.

When I start the servers on the domain node using command:

domain.sh -c domain_config.xml --host-config=host_config.xml -b xyz1.com -Djboss.bind.address.management=xyz1.com

it is starting the servers on the slave node as well even thought it is on different server. How did master know about those servers ? Is there any cache that domain controller will use to start previously connected host controllers ?

Anyone know , how domain is starting the servers on other other node automatically.

I might be wrong on this one, but as far as my understanding goes. Starting the main process in the Domain Controller (your master node) shouldn't start the slave processes. What I have seen though was. IF you have the slave processes running and your master is shutdown, whenever you bring your master back the slave nodes will automatically register to the master and start its servers accordingly.

I will keep an eye on this thread because I cannot reproduce such behavior.

Best,
