Description dereed 2013-12-16 18:53:34 UTC
Title: Use TCP Communication for the Clustering Subsystem

Describe the issue:
Section 16.4 includes documentation on switching JGroups and mod_cluster from multicast UDP to TCP.  But it does not include documentation on doing the same with HornetQ, or even a note that you would also need to.

Suggestions for improvement:
Add documentation for switching HornetQ to TCP to this section.

Additional information:
For starting content, see "Switch from UDP to TCP for HornetQ clustering in JBoss EAP 6"

Hi David, 

thanks a lot for this procedure. It's looking really good. I've found just one minor thing.

I've followed the guide and when I've started servers then I got exception:
11:12:06,730 ERROR [org.hornetq.core.server] (Old I/O server worker (parentId: -50704508, [id: 0xfcfa4f84, /192.168.40.2:5445])) HQ224018: Failed to create session: HornetQException[errorType=CLUSTER_SECURITY_EXCEPTION message=HQ119099: Unable to authenticate cluster user: HORNETQ.CLUSTER.ADMIN.USER]

This was caused by not setting attribute cluster-password:
<cluster-password>${jboss.messaging.cluster.password:CHANGE ME!!}</cluster-password>

Can you add one more step or notice that cluster-password must be set when security is enabled (it's enabled by default). Otherwise I have no comments.

Thanks,
Mirek
