Configuring Clustered Servers
In the case of a recovered session, all work is saved except the uncommitted edits in the browser of the expired session.
Each application server vendor implements clustering and cache synchronization in a different way. This section does not discuss details of a specific vendor's implementation, but describes properties of TeamConnect that are common across all implementations.
Configure your application servers for session replication across all nodes. All nodes must run exactly the same version of TeamConnect.
Editing teamconnect.properties
The TeamConnect installer makes many changes to teamconnect.properties when it runs but to configure clustering you will need to make additional manual edits. Each node in a cluster runs an identical copy of TeamConnect, so the properties file needs to be edited only once per cluster.
Here are the properties that require editing, with their definitions:
Clustering Properties
| Property Name | Definition | Suggested or Example Value |
|---|---|---|
|
sync.enabled |
A YES or NO value that determines whether TeamConnect attempts to do cache synchronization. | YES |
| sync.jms.topic.host | This refers to a configuration parameter in a Java Message Service (JMS) application, specifically indicating the hostname or IP address of the server that hosts a JMS topic for synchronous message communication. | tcp ://hostname:61616 |
| sync.jms.initial.jms.timeout.constant | Specifies whether the initial JMS synchronization timeout uses a fixed or adaptive wait. Set to YES to use a fixed wait or NO to use an adaptive wait. The default value is YES. Important: If set to YES, sync.jms.expected.cluster.sizeshould also be populated to avoid unnecessary waits. |
YES |
| sync.jms.expected.cluster.size | Specifies the expected number of nodes in the TeamConnect cluster. Set this value to the exact number of nodes in the cluster. For example, specify 2 for a two-node cluster or 5 for a five-node cluster. This property should be populated when sync.jms.initial.jms.timeout.constant is set to YES. |
Numeric value (Number of node in the cluster) |
