SeeOtherHostDualIP

This mechanisms matches internal Tigase cluster nodes against the lookup table to provide matching and relevant redirection hostname/IP. By default internal Tigase tig_cluster_nodes table is used (and appropriate repository implementation will be used).

To enable this redirection mechanism following configuration / class should be used. Note that for global use, all connection managers must have the same class defined. You can define each connection manager individually.

bosh {
    seeOtherHost (class: tigase.server.xmppclient.SeeOtherHostDualIP) {}
}
c2s {
    seeOtherHost (class: tigase.server.xmppclient.SeeOtherHostDualIP) {}
}
ws2s {
    seeOtherHost (class: tigase.server.xmppclient.SeeOtherHostDualIP) {}
}

It offers following configuration options:

  • data-source - configuration of the source of redirection information - by default internal Tigase tig_cluster_nodes table will be used (and appropriate repository implementation will be used); alternatively it’s possible to use eventbus source;
  • db-url - a JDBC connection URI which should be used to query redirect information; if not configured user-db-uri will be used;
  • get-all-data-query - a SQL helper query which should return all redirection data from database;
  • get-all-query-timeout - allows to set timeout for executed queries;
  • fallback-redirection-host - if there is no redirection information present (i.e. secondary hostname is not configured for the particular node) redirection won’t be generated; with this it’s possible to configure fallback redirection address.

All options are configured or on per-component basis:

<connector> {
    'cm-see-other-host' {
        'data-source' = '<class implementing tigase.server.xmppclient.SeeOtherHostDualIP.DualIPRepository>'
        'db-url' = 'jdbc:<database>://<uri>'
        'fallback-redirection-host' = '<hostname>'
        'get-all-data-query' = 'select * from tig_cluster_nodes'
        'get-all-query-timeout' = 10
    }
}
EventBus as a source of information

It’s possible to utilize EventBus and internal Tigase events as a source of redirection data. In order to do that eventbus-repository-notifications needs to be enabled in ClusterConnectionManager:

'cl-comp' {
    'eventbus-repository-notifications' = true
}
