Hi, I was experimenting with the ClusterSharding system (the one in master with rememberEntries true) and persistence in a simplistic test that those the following:
1) Start a ClusterSharding region on one node only 2) start an entry, and communicate with it 3) shutdown the ActorSystem 4) Start a new ActorSystem (same name) 5) Start the same ClusterSharding region 6) expect the entry to be recreated by virtue of persistence and 'rememberEntries' To my surprise it failed. The reason is that I add netty.tcp.port=0 in my configuration, which attributes a random port for each ActorSystem. Of course, in 4) the new ActorSystem has a distinct port from the one created at the start of the test. This means that when replaying the ShardCoordinator events, the unserialized ActorRef points to a different node than the current one, which later will create some issues since it doesn't exist anymore. Now, the problem is not this simplistic test (that I can fix by assigning a proper fixed port). It's when this system will be used in a production cluster where there's no guarantee that there will always be the same node present between restarts of the ShardCoordinator. For instance if I completely shutdown the production cluster, and recreate a new one on different EC2 instances (for instance) that would have completely different IP address, then the ShardCoordinator wouldn't be able to properly be configured. Is it a bug or did I miss something? -- Brice Figureau <brice...@daysofwonder.com> -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: >>>>>>>>>> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
