I am using JBoss cache version -3.2.0.GA with JBOSS AS 5.1.0 GA And . My applications runs on two servers and creates two cache instances on each sever. I have two cache clusters JBOSS-cluster-Live and JBOSS-cluster-Proving. JBOSS-cluster-Live includes cache-1 on server-1 and cache-1 on sever-2 similarly JBOSS-cluster-Proving includes cache-2 on server-1 and cache-2 on sever-2. Application workes fine if I keep one server up. BUT when I restart both the server together it doesn't load the persisted data.

where as if i keep all 4 cache instance in one cluster then it loads the persisted state on start up.

here in my configurations
