[jira] [Commented] (GEODE-6896) Member can startup without cluster configuration if locator crashes on startup

["Dan Smith (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-6896?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16878189#comment-16878189 ] 

Dan Smith commented on GEODE-6896:
----------------------------------

[~eburghardt] and I tried to fix this issue, but it looks like we actually rely on the current behavior in some of our tests.

Our attempt to change the behavior is here - we tried to go to all locators for cluster configuration, not just locators with share configuration. Many tests failed with this change.

> Even if a user is actually using cluster configuration, it's possible for a member to start up without using the cluster configuration.
> If a locator crashes after a member joins the distributed system, but before it gets the cluster configuration, the member will just log a message and start up without cluster configuration in this check in GemFireCacheImpl
> {noformat}
> if (locatorsWithClusterConfig.isEmpty()) {
>       logger.info("No locator(s) found with cluster configuration service");
>       return null;
>     }
> {noformat}
> This is especially problematic if persistent PDX is used, because the member will start up with a non persistent PDX region which will prevent any other members with persistence from starting up.
