What are you trying to do? Do you want two instances sharing the same
data or do you want to instances each with separate databases? Both
are possible, but if you want both instances to share the same data
then you'll need to do a little configuration and disable Roller's
search feature because it will not work properly with more than one
instance of Roller.
Here's an informative and entertaining article about setting up Roller
in a cluster

And here's another nice one about setting up memcached for Roller in a
Glassfish cluster
