Hi list,
I have a question about manipulating Geoserver config through the REST
plugin, and having a JBoss cluster underneath.
If we use the Geoserver data dir from a shared disk, will this work
automatically? In other words, if the configuration is changed on node1,
will Geoserver on node2 automatically pick up new layers etc?
If not, what would be a possible workaround?
TIA.
Best regards,
Bart

Nope.

Restconfig has a "reload" resource that you can hit with a POST or a PUT
to force a GeoServer to reload its entire configuration from the file system.
Mind, that might take a long time if you have many many layers (thousands).
