Missing detailed documentation for mixed domain

XMLWordPrintable

      In Configuration Guide -> Chapter 8. Domain Management -> 8.1.1. About the Domain Controller there is a note that EAP 7 domain controller can administer EAP 6 hosts and servers, but there is no detailed documentation.

      Detailed documentation with description of some mixed domain specific configurations should be added.

      What should be documented:

      • DC must be always at latest version of EAPs available in domain slave
      • hosts and servers must be JBoss EAP 6.2 or later (already mentioned in existing note)
      • There is ignore-unused-configuration attribute in host.xml
        • Available in EAP 7, not in EAP 6
        • Description:
          Set to true to instruct the master Host Controller to automatically not forward configuration and operations for profiles, socket binding groups and server groups which do not affect our servers.
        • Usage:
          <domain-controller>
            <remote host="${jboss.test.host.master.address}" port="9999" security-realm="ManagementRealm" ignore-unused-configuration="true">
          </domain-controller>
          
      • There is domain wide configuration host-exclude
        • Description:
          Configuration of resources that should be hidden by the Domain Controller from a slave Host Controller that is running a particular version.
        • Refer to https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-1340 for detailed description
        • Default domain.xml already contains this configuration for EAP 6.2-6.4 and 6.4 CP stream
      • Add example how to use a profile copied from an EAP6 domain.xml to manage EAP6 servers via an EAP 7 Domain Controller
