Infinispan 7 - Update of Existing Keys are not being Replicated to other Nodes

Question

We are using Infinispan 7.2.1 as replicated persisted cache between 2 nodes. We are using also Tomcat and Spring. No hibernate involves.

The first node is reading and writing to the cache.

The second node is only reading from the cache.

The problem we encounter:

The values node #2 reads from the cache are the values of the first insert done by node #1. Updates to an existing keys are not reflected when node 2 gets an entry from the cache.

Example:

Node 1: cache.put('x', 1)
Node 1: cache.put('x', 2)
Node 1: cache.put('x', 3)
Node 2: cache.get('x') ==> return 1 (!)

Snippet from our Infinispan configuration xml file:

<cache-container default-cache="OM_FILE_LAST_INSPECTION_REPLICA_CACHE" name="org.infinispan.offline.replica">
<transport stack="tcpStack" cluster="om_cluster" />
------
<replicated-cache name="OM_TASK_PROGRESS_REPLICA_CACHE" mode="SYNC">
    <locking striping="false" />
    <transaction mode="NON_XA" locking="PESSIMISTIC" />
    <eviction strategy="NONE" />
    <persistence passivation="false">
        <file-store max-entries="10000" path="path to some folder on disk" />
    </persistence>
</replicated-cache>
------

When debugging I also noticed the following like in the log:

No `ISPN000094: Received new cluster view` message? The warning should be harmless, but you can avoid it with `` — Dan Berindei, Oct 15 '15 at 15:11
BTW, this isn't really a programming question, so it would be asked on the Infinispan forums at https://developer.jboss.org/en/infinispan/content?filterID=contentstatus%5Bpublished%5D~objecttype~objecttype%5Bthread%5D — Dan Berindei, Oct 15 '15 at 15:37
As Dan said, the question would be better asked in the Infinispan forums. In any case, hard to tell from the information at hand. Enabling TRACE for org.infinispan package would be easiest to see what is happening with each put. As Dan rightly suggested, you need to make sure a cluster is formed and data can flow without problems between nodes, whichever transport you have chosen (TCP, UDP...etc) — Galder Zamarreño, Oct 20 '15 at 14:28
