We're using MODE-1745 to track this problem (from ModeShape's perspective):
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/MODE-1745
Here's an update.
After some more extensive debugging sessions, found the following in the
scenario when the 2nd cluster nodes is started only after the first clustered
node has completed initialization:
• state transfer seems to be sending all the data across to node 2 from
node 1 - in total 293 PutKeyValueCommand
• when the systemNode == null check is performed on node 2, the cache
only has 222 entries and there is nothing persisted in the file cache store
This seems to be a case of nodes being evicted from node 2, without being
persisted on the underlying cache store. Disabling eviction via the
configuration file make this scenario pass. With the latter set to NONE, all
the 293 entries received by node 2 are placed in the data container. With the
eviction set to
<eviction strategy="LIRS" maxEntries="1000"/>
only 222 entries (out of 293 total) are placed in the cache. This indicates to
Horia and I that there's a possible bug
aroundorg.infinispan.container.DefaultDataContainer#put
/org.infinispan.util.concurrent.BoundedConcurrentHashMap (the actual runtime
instance) and eviction.
Running with:
<eviction strategy="LRU" maxEntries="10000"/>
produces the same problem, so ATM we're able to run successfully **ONLY** with
eviction disabled.
Can someone familiar with Infinispan's internals please take a look at this to
see if we're correct?
