HI, Sorry to hop onto your discussion Russell and ask a question, but, reading the following from Aaron:
>The remote cache client does not shutdown >properly, forcing you to kill the application. Are there any plans to fix this in the next release? If so, do you have a rough idea of when this might be fixed, I would appreciate it if you could tell me. This bug bear is making things messy for a production application shutdown.

Just to confirm. In your system, do all the (5 or 6) tomcat instances use precisely the same cache.ccf? In other words, are they using exactly the same cache on disk, and exactly the same cached data? That is what I want to do - well, maybe not quite 5 or 6 instances, but at least 2 or 3. If they do, I'm wondering how you get all the instances to synch the cache data and key index across the instance's in-memory cache - or, does it just work? -- Russell =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Aaron Smuts wrote: > --- Russell East <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Couple of questions: > >> 1) I suppose that only one application instance >> at a time, on a >> particular computer, can reliably use a jcs region, >> right? >> > > No. I run upwards of 5 or 6 tomcat instances running > different applications each using JCS on a single box. > If they are using distribution plugins that require > them to bind to aprticular port, then I just configure > them to listen to different ports. > > >> 2) is there any code to synch access to the same >> cache region within >> 2 or more apps running on the same machine? >> > > Yes.
