Bug 1006971

Ramesh Reddy <rareddy> made a comment on jira TEIID-2659

Upon some searching and talking BrianS from AS team, it looks like

1) You can only execute "read-only" methods on slave host controllers, any non-read-only must be executed on the master domain controller.

2) I tried making operations like "list-translators" as read-only, but it is executed on the host-controller it will not be forwarded to actual servers so you will not get the desired results.

3) One option is to re-write Admin Domain layer, such that the request is manually submitted to each server node in the domain and then collate the results, however, what I have observed while testing is, only when user is connected to the master domain controller you can query about all hosts in the domain. When user is connected to slave host controller, they can see only server nodes under that controller, thus invalidates that option.

4) Also in domain mode you have to connect to master domain controller to do any deployments.

Given all the restrictions, there is no good way to fix this issue, unless AS7 code is fixed to allow some of the features. Thus my recommendation is to reject this issue and have tools like Designer and AdminShell only connect to the master domain controller for issuing any Teiid Admin operations.

Paul do you agree with Ramesh, or does something need to be raised with Brian?

I do agree. JBT does not support domain mode explicitly and until their use cased are functionally fleshed out then I don't see an alternative.

Since this was included in Beta release notes, I should probably make not of it in GA release notes.
