Tomcat Cluster Deployer
Is there any (complete) documentation on the Cluster Deployer? The official documentation doesn't actually say anything about it (or let alone anything useful at all...):
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/cluster-deployer.html
I'm trying to set up an environment that is both clustering sessions (well documented) and also replicating WARs/apps to the cluster, rather than requiring WAR deployment to each server.
Any help is appreciated.

Great!

Patches are first applied to trunk and then ported to other versions as
required. The source for the docs for trunk can be found in svn at:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/trunk/webapps/docs/
General guidelines are nothing more than stick to the format you find in
those files. For a complete list of what is allowed / expected see the
tomcat-doc.xsl file in that directory.
Any changes should be submitted in diff -u format as a bugzilla entry.
You might find it easier to build Tomcat locally to check your changes. If
you haven't done this before it is pretty simple. See
http://localhost:8080/docs/building.html
Note you must use a 1.5 JDK for a complete build. If you use a 1.6 JDK you
won't build the DBCP component.

OK, I successfully deployed this in our test environment. Could you point me toward the general guidelines for properly creating documentation in the acceptable format? I'll start by documenting the existing cluster example that includes the farm section and work from there.

Sounds great. I don't recall any open bugs - check bugzilla. I'm sure
you'll find some when you test it. Crate bugzilla entries as you find them
and add patches where you can. Also, if you create a bugzilla entry for any
doc changes I'll make sure they get applied. Note all the source for the
docs is in xml not html.

Thanks Mark.
I'll work at actually translating this into real documentation and examples. As far as patching, I'm not qualified to do that, but I'd be willing to take a crack at it if there's a list of bugs/wishlist items for it.

The source code is probably your best bet. See
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/trunk/java/org/apache/catalina/ha/deploy/FarmWarDeployer.java
As far as I am aware, it isn't production ready. As always, patches are
welcome.
