Can you bind 2 separate geronimo server instances to 2 different ip addresses?
I changed the all IPs and host names in the config-substitutions.properties
file for the new instance. I even changed the BASE_DIR to point to the new
geronimo installation directory. But when I try to start up the server it
gives the port in use error.
Is this possible at all running to instances of the server on 2 different IPs
on the box?
I have seen the following setup, but our configuration thus far has been to use
different IPs for different server installs.
Any inputs will be much appreciated.
Multiple Server Instances
A server instance is easy to create in Geronimo:
Set the org.apache.geronimo.server.name system property to the instance name
before you start the server.
Use the syntax -Dorg.apache.geronimo.server.name=foo to name your instance foo.
There are two ways to do this:
Add this to your GERONIMO_OPTS environment variable, or
Pass it on the java command-line invocation of the server.
This server's var and deploy directory will then be under <geronimo_home>/foo.
org.apache.geronimo.server.name may be any pathname relative to (descending
from) <geronimo_home>. For example, servers/bar would put the server's var
directory under <geronimo_home>/servers/bar.
The org.apache.geronimo.server.dir system property may also be used, and it
overrides org.apache.geronimo.server.name.
Use org.apache.geronimo.server.dir to specify an absolute path, which need not
be relative to <geronimo_home>. For example, /ag20/servers/bar would put the
server's var directory under /ag20/servers/bar. Otherwise, the two system
properties behave the same.
mkdir foo
Copy var/* to foo/var/
Edit foo/var/config/config-substitutions.properties, uncomment PortOffset and
change it to a value like 1,2,10,11,12,20,21,22,... so the ports in the new
server instance will not conflict with existing server instances you already
have defined and/or started. (Alternatively start the server with the property
-Dorg.apache.geronimo.config.substitution.PortOffset=3 in the command line)
Start the server.
To deploy applications to the new server instance, you need to specify the
NamingPort+PortOffset used, such as for PortOffset=1:
deploy -port 1100 list-modules
