We are using Inifinispan cluster with jgroups-tcp configuration in one of our setups. Sometimes we are observing that the coordinator status in jconsole is showing as unavailable, but this is not affecting any of the functionality. However, I'm just curious as in why the status is showing as unavailable. Any pointers would be appreciated.

The only thing I could add is that you can always look into `coordinatorAddress` property which is basically a string representation of `coordinator`.
Yes, he confirmed that the issue isn't anything to do with jgroups. In my view, this might be a minor bug with Infinispan.
Could you please tell me what Infinispan version are you using? It seems to work correctly with the latest release (or I missed how to reproduce it).
Thanks a lot! Would you consider migrating into something more recent? We've implemented a lot of good stuff in 8.x series!
Thanks for the reply @Sebasstian . Unfortunately we can't move to Infinispan 8 as it requires upgrading to java 8 and having java 8 in our systems is not possible at the moment due to various reasons. Was there any issue reported on this in Infinispan-7 that I could refer to? If yes, could you please point me to that? That would be a great help.
We tried with Infinispan-8 and the issue is still reproducible.
Ok, I created [ISPN-7643] Coordinator status is unavailable in Infinispan cluster - JBoss Issue Tracker to fix it. Thanks for pointing this out.
