/**
*
* This is the main interface in the Axis2 clustering implementation.
* In order to plug-in a new clustering implementation, this interface has to be
* implemented.
*
*
* The initilization of a node in the cluster is handled here. It is also responsible for getting
* this node to join the cluster. This node should not process any Web services requests until it
* successfully joins the cluster. Generally, this node will also need to obtain the state
* information and/or configuration information from a neighboring node.
* This interface is also responsible for
* properly instantiating a {@link org.apache.axis2.clustering.state.StateManager} &
* {@link org.apache.axis2.clustering.management.NodeManager}. In the case of
* a static
* membership scheme,
* this members are read from the axis2.xml file and added to the ClusteringAgent.
*
*
* In the axis2.xml, the instance of this interface is specified using the "clustering"
* class attribute.
* e.g.
*
* <clustering class="org.apache.axis2.clustering.tribes.TribesClusterAgent">
*
*
* specifies that the TribesClusterAgent class is the instance of this interface that
* needs to be used.
*
*
* There can also be several "parameter" elements, which are children of the "clustering" element
* in the axis2.xml file. Generally, these parameters will be specific to the ClusteringAgent
* implementation.
