Yes I was very confused and was configuring the TreeCache in one deployment 
descriptor (syncRepl.xml) and the TreeCacheAop in another (jboss-service.xml), 
since I assumed this was how things worked based on the various documents I've 
found on this topic (these documents don't seem to be synchronized or complete, 
my only excuse for making this bonehead mistake).  It seemed weird to me at the 
time but it was sort of working so I thought maybe it was correct, just with 
the wrong attribute values.  Thanks for making your observation which has 
prompted me to configure the TreeCacheAop MBean in the jboss-service.xml that I 
include in my SAR.

Unfortunately having the TreeCacheAop configuration in the right file still 
doesn't solve my problem, in that replication just isn't happening across the 
two nodes of my cluster.  I currently have the following as my TreeCacheAop 
MBean entry in my SAR's jboss-service.xml:

(I don't have the TransactionManagerLookupClass entry because I get exceptions 
with both DummyTransactionManagerLookup and TransactionManagerLookup, but I'm 
assuming that's unrelated to the current woes and is something to be addressed 
later.)

In server.log I see the following messages which indicate that the TreeCacheAop 
is being started fine but that it isn't communicating with any other 
TreeCacheAop in its TreeCache-Cluster, which explains why there is no 
replication (this is the server.log from the second node, started about 5 
minutes after the first node of the cluster, and after there are already data 
stored in the TreeCacheAop on the first node):

  | 

Something else of interest is that when I remove the ClusterConfig attribute 
from the TreeCacheAop MBean entry I get the following messages instead which 
show that there is communication between the two TreeCacheAop MBeans, and the 
current state of the TreeCacheAop on the first node is actually fetched to the 
newly started TreeCacheAop on the second node, although the replication ends 
there:

  | 

Notice above that when the ClusterConfig is left out then the actual name of 
the server, canal, is listed in the GMS info message, whereas before it was 
listed as localhost.  Does this tell us anything ?

Thanks for any more advice or suggestions.
