Abstract
A mechanism for making changes consistently across an application server domain or a cluster. Server configuration consistency is absolutely necessary for cluster deployments. The invention allows changes to the configuration repository and to the application deployment process to be managed via a Data Replication Service (DRS). The former requires that the configuration repository be version aware, while the latter breaks down the application deployment process into two phases—one for data distribution and processing as far as possible, and the second to expose the changes through the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI).
