How to install WSO2 Carbon cluster management feature in new version of Application Server?

Question

I want to manager cluster of Application Server and I follow the guide "http://wso2.com/library/tutorials/install-wso2-carbon-cluster-management-feature/".

In this guide, It applied to Application Server 3.1.0 with P2 repo URL is "http://dist.wso2.org/p2/carbon/releases/3.2.2/", It is OK.

But when I try to apply to Application Server 5.1.0 with P2 repo URL is "http://dist.wso2.org/p2/carbon/releases/3.2.2/"，it can no find any Available Features. Then I tried other P2 repo URL such as "http://dist.wso2.org/p2/carbon/releases/4.2.0/", it can find some Available Features but without cluster management features.

I want to know what the P2 repo URL is proper for Application Server 5.1.0 to install cluster management feature?

Answer 1

The following link will help to identify the correct carbon version on which the particular product is released. http://wso2.com/products/carbon/release-matrix/

For application server features, search in terms "app server" and "application server" and for the Application server 5.1.0 use the repo, http://dist.wso2.org/p2/carbon/releases/4.1.0/

Answer 2

Application Server 5.1.0 has cluster management feature installed by default. You can verify it by looking in repository/components/plugins folder. There you will see org.wso2.carbon.cluster.mgt.core jar file. So you don't need to install it.

Seems like you are following a outdated tutorial. Follow the clustering guide to learn about clustering WSO2 products.

EDIT:

The recommended approach is to have worker/manager separated cluster. Refer the following for info.
