9.2. Configure Invalidation Mode (Remote Client-Server Mode)

Invalidation mode is a clustered mode in Red Hat JBoss Data Grid. Invalidation mode can be added to any cache container using the following procedure:

Procedure 9.1. The invalidation-cache Element

The invalidation-cache element configures settings for the distributed cache using the following parameters:
  1. Add the Cache Name

    The name parameter provides a unique identifier for the cache.
    <cache-container name="local" 
         		 default-cache="default"
         		 statistics="true">
     <invalidation-cache name="default">
  2. Set the Clustered Cache Start Mode

    The mode parameter sets the clustered cache mode. Valid values are SYNC (synchronous) and ASYNC (asynchronous).
    <cache-container name="local" 
         		 default-cache="default"
         		 statistics="true">
    	<invalidation-cache name="default"
    			    mode="ASYNC">
  3. Set the Cache Start Mode

    The start parameter specifies whether the cache starts when the server starts up or when it is requested or deployed.
    <cache-container name="local" 
         		 default-cache="default"
         		 statistics="true">
    	<invalidation-cache name="default"
    			    mode="ASYNC"
    			    start="EAGER">
  4. Per-cache Statistics

    If statistics are enabled at the container level, per-cache statistics can be selectively disabled for caches that do not require monitoring by setting the statistics attribute to false.
    <cache-container name="local" 
         		 default-cache="default"
         		 statistics="true">
    	<invalidation-cache name="default"
    			    mode="ASYNC"
    			    start="EAGER"
    			    statistics="true">
    			...
    	</invalidation-cache>
    </cache-container>

Important

JGroups must be appropriately configured for clustered mode before attempting to load this configuration.
For details about the cache-container, locking, and transaction elements, see the appropriate chapter.
