You can mark selected components to support transparent automatic failover. If a client has an object reference for a component on a server that is a member of a cluster, the client’s object reference provides transparent failover, unless all the servers in the cluster fail.
Automatic failover is not the default for EAServer components. If a component does not support automatic failover, and the server hosting that component fails, a client can still fail over if either the client’s automaticFailover initial context property is enabled, or if failover is enabled for the EJB provider.
Setting automatic failover for a component
In the component’s Ant configuration file, set the automaticFailover subtask of the setProperties task to true.
