To Configure the Group Management Service
The Group Management Service (GMS) is an in-process service that provides cluster monitoring, cluster membership, and group communication services. The GMS performs the following functions:
-
Notifies registered modules in a GlassFish Server instance when one or more member instances are added to or removed from a cluster, or are suspected or confirmed to have failed.
-
Provides the ability to send and receive messages between cluster members.
-
In the navigation tree, expand the Configuration node.
-
Select the configuration for the cluster that you are changing.
-
Under the configuration's node, select the Group Management Service node.
The Group Management Service page opens.
-
In the Maximum Missed Heartbeats field, type the maximum number of missed heartbeats from a member before the GMS confirms that a failure is suspected.
The default is 3.

In the Heartbeat Frequency field, type the period of time between successive broadcasts of a group member's heartbeat.
The default is 2000 milliseconds.

In the Failure Verification Wait Time field, type the amount of time to wait before verifying that a member that is suspected to have failed should be reported as failed.
