- How do I switch clustering to TCP instead of multicast UDP in EAP 6? https://access.redhat.com/solutions/140103
- Configuring Cluster to run with TCP in Domain Mode of EAP6 using CLI https://access.redhat.com/solutions/146323
Internal
Procedure
Switch to a "tcp" Default Stack
Configuration File
Locate the "jgroups" subsystem in standalone.xml or domain.xml relevant profile, and set default-stack value to "tcp":
... <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:jgroups:1.1" default-stack="tcp"> ...
CLI
/profile=ha/subsystem=jgroups:write-attribute(name=default-stack,value=tcp)
Note that the operation requires reload, but you should reload the server configuration only after the entire procedure is complete (see reload)
Replace the MPING protocol with TCPPING
Configuration File
Locate the "tcp" stack inside the "jgroups" subsystem and replace the MPING protocol with TCPPING:
... <stack name="tcp"> <transport type="TCP" socket-binding="jgroups-tcp"/> <protocol type="TCPPING"> <property name="initial_hosts">1.2.3.4[7600],1.2.3.5[7600]</property> <property name="num_initial_members">2</property> <property name="port_range">0</property> <property name="timeout">2000</property> </protocol> <!--<protocol type="MPING" socket-binding="jgroups-mping"/>--> <protocol type="MERGE2"/> ... </stack> ...
If the domain model is used and the same profile is shared by several server groups, the "initial_hosts" property should be set on the server_group, as follows:
... <stack name="tcp"> <transport type="TCP" socket-binding="jgroups-tcp"/> <protocol type="TCPPING"> <property name="initial_hosts">${jboss.cluster.tcp.initial_hosts}</property> ... </protocol> ... </stack> ...
and the server group-specific values for the system property are set in the <server-group> element as follows:
... <server-groups> <server-group name="something" profile="ha"> <socket-binding-group ref="ha-sockets"/> <system-properties> <property name="jboss.cluster.tcp.initial_hosts" value="1.2.3.4[7600],1.2.3.5[7600]" /> </system-properties> </server-group> ... <server-groups>
CLI
Note that we can't simply remove MPING and add TCPING, the CLI API is not expressive enough to allow us to specify the protocol's position in the list. We need to replace MPING with TCPPING as follows:
/profile=ha/subsystem=jgroups/stack=tcp/protocol=MPING/:write-attribute(name=type,value=TCPPING)
then remove the "socket-binding" node:
/profile=ha/subsystem=jgroups/stack=tcp/protocol=MPING/:write-attribute(name=socket-binding)
/profile=ha/subsystem=jgroups/stack=tcp/protocol=MPING/property=initial_hosts:add(value="1.2.3.4[7600],1.2.3.5[7600]") /profile=ha/subsystem=jgroups/stack=tcp/protocol=MPING/property=num_initial_members:add(value="2") /profile=ha/subsystem=jgroups/stack=tcp/protocol=MPING/property=port_range:add(value="0") /profile=ha/subsystem=jgroups/stack=tcp/protocol=MPING/property=timeout:add(value="2000")
If the domain model is used and the same profile is shared by several server groups, the "initial_hosts" property should be set on the server_group, as follows:
/profile=ha/subsystem=jgroups/stack=tcp/protocol=MPING/property=initial_hosts:add(value="${jboss.cluster.tcp.initial_hosts}")
and the server group-specific values for the system property are set in the <server-group> element as described in manipulating per-server-group properties (note that the value must be set before :reload otherwise the reload will fail:
/server-group=test1/system-property=jboss.cluster.tcp.initial_hosts:add(value="1.2.3.4[7600],1.2.3.5[7600]")
Note that the operation requires reload (see reload)
Additional Verifications
- Verify that the cluster members do actually bind to the IP addresses specified in initial_hosts.
- See port_range recommendations.
- See num_initial_members recommendations.
