Farm Service in AS 5

darkunix Nov 24, 2008 3:47 PM

I can't figure out how to deploy to an AS 5 cluster. Using 5.0.0.CR2.

At the bottom of the Major Clustering Changes in JBoss AS 5 Wiki it states that the farm service is removed. It says it will "eventually be handled by the AS 5 Profile Service". It doesn't provide any links to any other documentation to show what replaces it, or any alternative ways. Does anyone have a link that shows hows to deploy to a cluster in AS 5?

It seems as though all the documentation, even the one marked for AS 5, keeps referring to the farm service even though it's been removed.

Your best bet for deploying to a cluster is to use a script to copy the deployments to your nodes. The old farm service largely amounted to that anyway. The old farm service isn't conceptually compatible with the AS 5 profile service, but the profile-service based replacement won't be ready for 5.0.0.

I'll get the docs corrected; thanks for pointing that out.
