Hi,
After showing this error, two controllers are partitioned.
Actually they never saw each other and they were never in a group.
Make sure that your switch supports UDP multicast. You can use the JGroups demo and test your network config until the demo works. Once you have your network settings right, you can try to use Sequoia.
If you are using Linux, make sure that your kernel supports IP multicast.
Use a tool like tcpdump or ethereal to check how packets are routed on your machine.

Hope this helps,
Emmanuel


I am using Appia for UDP multicasting. When I type "enable <backend>" from the other controller, the prompt is stuck and the console shows a bunch of nakfifo.multicast.NakFifoMulticastSession nacked. And then, controllers are partitioned each other. They don't see each other finally.

I was testing how to replicate a virtual database to two controllers. Each virtual database conf. was setup to use one backend of a different node, with RAIDb-1 type.

First time, I tries to solve this problem by using 'JGroups'. But, jgroups also was stuck at 'enabling the backend'. So, I moved to 'Appia'. Appia seemed to work with TCP setup. Yes, it worked. But, it does not work with UDP multicasting.

I turned off firewalls. So, this is not firewall problem.

I added the entry in routing table, such as:
/sbin/route add -net 224.0.0.0 <http://224.0.0.0> netmask 240.0.0.0 <http://240.0.0.0> dev eth2

Following is my routing table of a controller

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 10.60.10.0 <http://10.60.10.0> * 255.255.255.0 <http://255.255.255.0> U 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.10.0 <http://192.168.10.0> * 255.255.255.0 <http://255.255.255.0> U 0 0 0 eth2 224.0.0.0 <http://224.0.0.0> * 240.0.0.0 <http://240.0.0.0> U 0 0 0 eth2 default 10.60.10.1 <http://10.60.10.1> 0.0.0.0 <http://0.0.0.0> UG 0 0 0 eth0

Actually, I wanted to use gigabit ethernet for all products communication. So, I forwarded gossip and udp packets to eth2, gigbit ethernet. When I used TCP setup, it used eth0 wholly. What is the problem?
