Hazelcast in a standalone installation

[Neil Gordon]

To configure iDempiere in a standalone installation, proceed as follows.

- Copy hazelcast.xml from /org.idempiere.hazelcast.service.config/hazelcast.xml into your idempiere-server folder.

- Edit the hazelcast.xml and set hazelcast/group/name to be the same as your database name.

- Set hazelcast/network/join/multicast enabled="false"

Now when server starts, the following message is displayed in the log:

-----------> Node: [..]:5701 [idempiere] No join method is enabled! Starting standalone. [13]

This should also be useful in the following circumstances (also standalone scenarios):

- Firewall is enabled, to avoid multicast errors in the log

Errors were as follows: MulticastService: [..]:5701 [dev] You probably have too long Hazelcast configuration! [39]

java.io.IOException: Operation not permitted

- Development or test installations, and to avoid developers' workstations from networking with each other.

This is what I found through experimentation, please could someone with experience with Hazelcast double check that the information looks correct.

It would be good to start a wiki page on wiki.idempiere.org with the above information.

Hi Neil,

yes, I use a similar setup in an installation. When I set this up I
discussed that with Carlos and Heng Sin. In my opinion your solution is
the right way to do it.

I am ashamed that I did not find the time at that moment to document
this better. +1 for doing a wikipage about that.

Also in my opinion this kind of setup should be the standard in the
idempiere trunk. I am sure that most users will use iDempiere standalone
and that they expect a development or testing instance not to
communicate with the production system in the same LAN.

regards,
Thomas Bayen

Thanks Thomas, for your reply... makes sense what you are saying

Can anyone create a Wiki page? Maybe I will find some time, as well.

Regards,

Neil
