I just figured this out. 1. Create One JRun Server and Deploy an exploded ColdFusion EAR/WAR file into it as various documentations on the internet says to do.
2. Configure ColdFusion EAR/WAR file like you want it. Use the CFIDE administrator to configure ColdFusion like you want it. Create a J2EE Archive within the ColdFusion Administrator with >J2EE Archives (.ear/.war). I create an EAR file and named it myApp.ear 3 I create two more JRun Server and Cluster them together with the JMC. 4. Deploy your EAR file (myApp.ear) by putting the EAR file in the Cluster's hot deploy directory. This would be something like c:\jrun4\servers\jrun01\SERVER-INF\cluster. This will deploy the EAR file to all members in the cluster. One drawback is that the cluster member that you deployed the EAR file to must be up and running for the other cluster members to also deploy the EAR file. The EAR file gets exploded into a temp directory located under each cluster members. This would be something like c:\jrun4\servers\jrun01\SERVER-INF\temp. If you make changes in the ColdFusion Administrator via one of the Cluster Members, then your setting will get lost when you restart your the cluster member. All changes have to be made in the stand-alone JRun Server and then deployed to the cluster members. I guess this could be good from some, bad for some, and down right ugly for everyone else. LOL!!!
