             Summary: Tomcat cluster deployment?
                 Key: MTOMCAT-288
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MTOMCAT-288
             Project: Apache Tomcat Maven Plugin
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Sbremal


Would it be possible that add a feature to deploy WARs on multiple Tomcat instances building a Tomcat cluster? As cluster is the feature of Tomcat I would assume there is a feature for cluster deployment as well. The closest I found was FarmWarDeployer, does not look PRD ready.

1. We do not want to restructure our Jenkins jobs to accommodate cluster deployment (cut jobs half, introduce loops etc.)
2. We want to keep the cluster deployment as close to Tomcat as possible.
3. Tomcat manager is running on each Tomcat instance, i.e. there is no cluster manager. (?)
4. Apparently the best place for this feature would be the Maven Tomcat plug-in.

The URL Maven passes to the plug-in would be a comma separated list of Tomcat instances, and the plug-in would iterate through this list performing deployment on each Tomcat.

What do you think?
