Hello, I am playing with Karaf (or the other way around), trying to find a solution how to set up a development and production environments. Yesterday I installed Cellar features and tried some of the cluster commands and they seem to work as advertised.
I would like to devise a plan for deploying bundles and features to a cluster of Karaf instances on different machines with failover capability. It is kind of hard as I am still learning OSGi and the whole ecosystem. At http://karaf.apache.org/manual/latest-2.2.x/users-guide/failover.html there is a TODO section for MySql. Does that mean I can not use MySql for jdbc locking or is there just lack of documentation? What does that mean: "If the master loses the lock, a waiting slave process gains access to the locking table and fully starts its container."? If the master machine's processor melts, then the slave will come up automatically? I would really appreciate some stories on how to set up the fail over environment and how to deploy to the selected environment (dev, alpha, production,...) Thanks, borut
