I have a question about ClusterNode and the Journal.

If I bring a new app server node into a Jackrabbit cluster, the journal gets replayed from scratch, this can take some time if the cluster has been running for some time. I would like to avoid this if possible.

It would be nice to be able to snapshot the local state of an app server, and use that to a) seed new app servers as they joined the cluster b) truncate the redo log to prevent eternal growth.

Is this the right way to achieve a fast start of a new app server in the cluster ? Is it necessary to run the journal from scratch (I assume it is due to the indexing operations)?
Has anyone already looked at this ?

I searched the lists but I couldn't find anything.

Thanks
Ian
