Group Configuration

This configuration is used to create multiple Hazelcast clusters. The cluster members (nodes) and clients having the same group configuration (i.e., the same group name and password) forms a private cluster.

Each cluster will have its own group and it will not interfere with other clusters. The name of the element to configure cluster groups is group.

The following are example configurations.

Declarative:

<group>
    <name>testCluster</name>
    <password>1q2w3e</password>
<group>

Programmatic:

GroupConfig groupConfig = new GroupConfig();
groupConfig.setName( "testCluster" ).setPassword( "1q2w3e" );

It has the following elements.

  • name: Name of the group to be created.
  • password: Password of the group to be created.
