Hi again, Sorry, I made a mistake: of course, isExternal() returns "true" for all but one cluster node, namely the active one.

Hi Noah, Jackrabbit's implementation of javax.jcr.observation.Event, namely org.apache.jackrabbit.core.observation.EventImpl has a public method called "isExternal()" that will return "true" if your EventListener is registered in the "active" cluster node, i.e. the one making the change, and "false" for all the passive ones. May be that helps? Apart from that, it is currently not possible to register a "deliver-exactly-once" EventListener in a cluster.
