Hi guys,
I have set up a glusterFS shared storage on two nodes cluster,
pretending to get HA Active-Pasive. So I have shared /etc/cas and
/etc/tomcat , but I am not sure about sharing tomcat webapps directory
or instead deploying the CAS server on both nodes every time I do a
modification. What do you guys would recommend me to share across ?

Not caring about sharing the sessions, if a server goes offline, the
users will have to log in again.

Cheers!

We do deploy into both nodes. Sharing CATALINA_BASE is really bad
idea(it contains internal tomcat state).

Moreover, my cas nodes are both active, behind balancing server. Out
cas update(once per month usually) procedure is simple: stop balancing
into node, stop node, update .war, start node, start balancing, repeat
with other nodes. No session loss so far(yes, we use couchbase cluster
as ticket registry storage).
