Integration

WebLogic 10.3.5 server is configured with the following JVM parameters to work as an Extend client :

-Dtangosol.coherence.cacheconfig=session-cache-config.remote.xml
-Dtangosol.coherence.proxy.address=localhost
-Dtangosol.coherence.proxy.port=9001
-Dtangosol.coherence.session.proxy.address=localhost
-Dtangosol.coherence.session.proxy.port=9002
-Dtangosol.coherence.distributed.localstorage=false
-Dtangosol.coherence.session.localstorage=false

Active-cache (1.0) and coherence-web-spi.war (Coherence 3.7.1) are librairies are deployed

Application deployed is configured to use Coherence*Web, following the recipe at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24290_01/coh.371/e22620/features.htm#CBHEFFJD.

When deploying the application, connection is eventually made to the Extend cluster (localhost:9002).
The session cache config used is the one specified by the -Dtangosol.coherence.cacheconfig switch.

BUT, prior to this, a local node and cluster are created, using the default filename session-cache-config.xml where it can fid it (usually the one in coherence-web-spi.war).

(To make things work I had to make a session-cache-config.xml file available with the same content as the session-cache-config.remote.xml containing the TCP extend setup (tcp-initiator), otherwise I get, as expected, the No storage-enabled nodes exist for service DistributedSessions expection)

But this node/cluster is irrelevant. I can't figure out why it is created.

Here is the whole WebLogic startup sequence :
