Re: How to cluster two embedded tomcat 7 instances

2011-06-10 Thread Rüdiger Herrmann
Martin,

thanks for the pointers. Though, I'd rather like to start with the
default solution (i.e. something that works out of the box with the
Tomcat deliverable)
In the meanwhile, I brought the SimpleTcpCluster to work. I will
report here soon with some code.

Still, I would be *very* interested in knowing how to use the
PersistentManager to realize session failover - if it is inteded to
serve that purpose at all.

Regards
Rüdiger

 Hi,

 perhaps memcached-session-manager is an option for you:

 It has integration tests that show how to configure it programatically:

 Hi all,

 I would like to programmatically set up two Tomcat engines and have
 them form a basic cluster - all in the same VM. Creating and starting
 the servlet engines already works
   Tomcat tomcat = new Tomcat()
   tomcat.setPort( 123 );
   // create context, add servlet, ...
   tomcat.start();

 What I am struggling with is setting up the cluster. My first attempt
 was to use the PersistentManager with Store that uses a shared
 directory. But it seems that it only persists session in time
 intervals. To enable failover, a session would need to be persisted
 after each request. However, I didn't find out how to configure or
 trigger the PersistentManager to do so.
 Still, the PersistenceManager setup was straightforward and if anyone
 knows how to form a cluster with this approach I would be grateful to
 know.

 I am aware of the SimpleTcpCluster, which I would try next. Just,
 before transforming the XML configuration into API calls (without
 known their meaning) I wanted to ask if there is an easier or even
 pre-built solution.

 Background:
 I work on enabling RAP [1], a web framework, to work in failover
 cluster environments. To ensure cluster-support, I have a set of JUnit
 tests that issue requests against an embeded cluster of servlet
 engines and then examine the state of sessions of the respective
 nodes, etc.
 Performance isn't important, neither is any advanced clustering
 feature (e.g. DeltaManager) needed. My focus is on finding a
 lightweight and purely programmatic solution.

 Thanks in advance,
 Rüdiger

I remember there were people posting on this list that they're trying to
achieve the same without success (I just cannot find the relevant
threads in short time). You can search the mailing list for this (IIRC
one case was related to realizing non-sticky sessions with persistent
manager).

In case someone is interested, the code to programmatically set up a
clustered Tomcat instance is attached.
