A question about load balancers and Terracotta clustering

[Wessel, Keith William]

Hi, all,

Alright, as suggested, I'm trying the dev-console route. I know this isn't the Terracotta support list, but I'm hoping someone can help me out here.

I hate when I have to spend time diagnosing my diagnostics!

Seems that dev-console.sh isn't starting.

&* I know My remote X display is working as I can open an xterm.
* the ~/.dev-console.log.0 file gets created but nothing's in it.
* I even tried copying my tc-config.xml to ~/.AdminClient.xml to see if it'd be happier with a config file.

All it does when I run dev-console.sh is creates the .dev-console.log.0 if it doesn't exist then terminates.

Anyone have any suggestions as to what I might add to the JAVA_OPTS or elsewhere to get this thing to give me some debugging info? Or has anyone seen this behavior before?

Thanks,
Keith

For troubleshooting this, I would fire up the dev console, go to 
Platform/Clustered Heap/Object Browser, and search through the MapEntry 
with key=session for the session object itself.

If you're hitting a different server than before, then yes.
