I can make this work but really want to get some understanding. After many iterations of making another box's node agent connect, I discovered this is the problem. In the master domain, domain.xml has this for my remote node:
<node-agent name="gf71" start-servers-in-startup="true" system-jmx-connector
-name="system">
<jmx-connector accept-all="false" address="0.0.0.0" auth-realm-name="admin
-realm" enabled="true" name="system" port="40991" protocol="rmi_jrmp" security-e
nabled="true">
<ssl cert-nickname="s1as" client-auth-enabled="false" ssl2-enabled="fals
e" ssl3-enabled="true" tls-enabled="true" tls-rollback-enabled="true"/>
<property name="client-hostname" value="gf71"/>
</jmx-connector>
** Note the 0.0.0.0 address,which is not correct. If I manually change this to the ip of my other box with gf71 node agent, it all works.
So the question is, how does this get set when I do create-node on the other box? Why would it set to 0.0.0.0? I do not have dns set up so perhaps that's related but I didn't think dns entry was required to deploy. I made sure both boxes localhost pointed to real ip instead of 127.
Any idea why this is?
