I may not understand exactly what you're trying to do, but, I think that will 
come out during discussion.

I have a production cluster and a development cluster.

To switch between the clusters (and to switch users) I have had to do two 
things:


  *   Create a new service discovery domain with the appropriate servers listed 
(including development expressway cluster)
  *   Ensure I use the UDS disabled switch when installing Jabber (this allows 
for different userIDs to be used)

I know there are a few parameters out there that allow you to push the domain 
out, but I'm not 100% sure how that works to be honest. Especially because it 
sounded like they were meant to be done at install time. And still required a 
domain to be set.

Let the games begin!

Up until now, I've just been using CIPC as it does everything I needed it to 
do... for the most part. Starting this year, I have to jump through way too 
many hoops to keep using CIPC as it is EOL and our security team doesn't like 
that.

I'm trying to figure out how to configure my Jabber client to register to a 
specific non-prod cluster, but I'm not having much luck.

Our prod has 2 clusters with ILS. the internal SRV record for discovery 
contains all nodes for both clusters. This works just fine in production and 
relies on the HOME CLUSTER checkbox for the user to be logged into the correct 
cluster.

My problem comes because I work on non-prod systems as well as prod. The only 
way I've been able to figure out how to get my jabber to jump to non-prod 
system is to create a NEW srv record that only contains the nodes of the 
cluster I want to work with and then change the entry in the bootstrap file.

Is there some way to override discovery and hard code a TFTP or subscriber so 
that Jabber goes to the intended cluster?  Or, maybe there's a way to do this 
without a custom SRV record for each non-prod cluster using registry like we 
could in Cucilync? Some other trick?  I'm hopeful there is some combination of 
bootstrap settings that I need to figure out, but all of those fields can be a 
nightmare to get correct without unintentionally breaking something else.

Thanks,
Nick
