!!!Clustered Remoting
''Clustered AOP Remoting didn't receive much TLC for the 1.0 beta release although we did fix a few critical bugs.  We'll put more TLC in the next release''

Clustered remoting works a little differently than regular AOP remoting. It leverages the clustering framework implemented for EJBs.
{{{
import org.jboss.ha.framework.interfaces.RoundRobin;
...
   POJO remote = new POJO("hello");
   return (POJO)ClusteredRemoting.registerClusteredObject("clusteredobj", remote,
                                                          "DefaultPartition", new RoundRobin(),
                                                          "socket://servername:8084");
}}}
Unlike regular AOP remoting, clients cannot independently connect to a clustered object. Here's a look at the API.

The ClusteredRemoting static methods register with the Dispatcher for you. The partitionName corresponds to the Cluster Partition you want the object to be used with. Pre-implemented load balance policies are RoundRobin and FirstAvailable. See the EJB clustering docs for more information.
