What LockManager does?
In general, LockManager stores Lock objects, so it can give a Lock object or can release it, etc.
Also, LockManager is responsible for removing Locks that live too long. This parameter may be configured with "time-out" property.
JCR provides two basic implementations of LockManager:
org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.core.lock.LockManagerImpl
;
org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.core.lock.jbosscache.CacheableLockManagerImpl
;
In this article, we will mostly mention about CacheableLockManagerImpl.
You can enable LockManager by adding lock-manager-configuration to workspace-configuration.
For example:
<workspace name="ws"> ... <lock-manager class="org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.core.lock.jbosscache.CacheableLockManagerImpl"> <properties> <property name="time-out" value="15m" /> ... </properties> </lock-manager> ... </workspace>
LockManagerImpl is a simple implementation of LockManager, and also faster than CacheableLockManager. It stores Lock objects in HashMap and may also persist Locks if LockPersister is configured. LockManagerImpl does not support replication in any way.
See more about LockManager Configuration at here.
CacheableLockManagerImpl stores Lock objects in JBoss-cache, so Locks are replicable and affect on cluster, not only a single node. Also, JBoss-cache has JDBCCacheLoader, so Locks will be stored to the database.
Both of the implementations support to remove Expired Locks. LockRemover separates threads, that periodically ask LockManager to remove Locks that live so long. So, the timeout for LockRemover may be set as follows, the default value is 30m.
<properties> <property name="time-out" value="10m" /> ... </properties>
Replication requirements are the same for Cache.
You can see a full JCR configuration example at here.
Common tips:
clusterName
("jbosscache-cluster-name")
must be unique;
cache.jdbc.table.name
must be unique
per datasource;
cache.jdbc.fqn.type
and
cache.jdbc.node.type must be configured according to your
database.
There are a few ways to configure CacheableLockManagerImpl, and all of them configure JBoss-cache and JDBCCacheLoader.
See http://community.jboss.org/wiki/JBossCacheJDBCCacheLoader
The first one is putting JbossCache configuration file path to CacheableLockManagerImpl.
This configuration is not so good as you think. Because the repository may contain many workspaces, and each workspace must contain LockManager configuration, and LockManager configuration may contain the JbossCache config file. So, the total configuration will grow up. But it is useful if we want to have a single LockManager with a special configuration.
Configuration is as follows:
<lock-manager class="org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.core.lock.jbosscache.CacheableLockManagerImpl"> <properties> <property name="time-out" value="15m" /> <property name="jbosscache-configuration" value="conf/standalone/cluster/test-jbosscache-lock-config.xml" /> </properties> </lock-manager>
test-jbosscache-lock-config.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <jbosscache xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="urn:jboss:jbosscache-core:config:3.2"> <locking useLockStriping="false" concurrencyLevel="50000" lockParentForChildInsertRemove="false" lockAcquisitionTimeout="20000" /> <clustering mode="replication" clusterName="JBoss-Cache-Lock-Cluster_Name"> <stateRetrieval timeout="20000" fetchInMemoryState="false" /> <jgroupsConfig multiplexerStack="jcr.stack" /> <sync /> </clustering> <loaders passivation="false" shared="true"> <preload> <node fqn="/" /> </preload> <loader class="org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.core.lock.jbosscache.JDBCCacheLoader" async="false" fetchPersistentState="false" ignoreModifications="false" purgeOnStartup="false"> <properties> cache.jdbc.table.name=jcrlocks_ws cache.jdbc.table.create=true cache.jdbc.table.drop=false cache.jdbc.table.primarykey=jcrlocks_ws_pk cache.jdbc.fqn.column=fqn cache.jdbc.fqn.type=VARCHAR(512) cache.jdbc.node.column=node cache.jdbc.node.type=<BLOB> cache.jdbc.parent.column=parent cache.jdbc.datasource=jdbcjcr </properties> </loader> </loaders> </jbosscache>
Configuration requirements:
<clustering mode="replication" clusterName="JBoss-Cache-Lock-Cluster_Name"> - the cluster name must be unique;
cache.jdbc.table.name
must be unique
per datasource;
cache.jdbc.node.type
and
cache.jdbc.fqn.type
must be configured
according to your database.
To prevent any consistency issue regarding the lock data please ensure that your cache loader is org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.core.lock.jbosscache.JDBCCacheLoader and that your database engine is transactional.
The second one is using the template JBoss-cache configuration for all LockManagers.
Lock template configuration
test-jbosscache-lock.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <jbosscache xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="urn:jboss:jbosscache-core:config:3.1"> <locking useLockStriping="false" concurrencyLevel="500" lockParentForChildInsertRemove="false" lockAcquisitionTimeout="20000" /> <clustering mode="replication" clusterName="${jbosscache-cluster-name}"> <stateRetrieval timeout="20000" fetchInMemoryState="false" /> <jgroupsConfig multiplexerStack="jcr.stack" /> <sync /> </clustering> <loaders passivation="false" shared="true"> <!-- All the data of the JCR locks needs to be loaded at startup --> <preload> <node fqn="/" /> </preload> <!-- For another cache-loader class you should use another template with cache-loader specific parameters -> <loader class="org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.core.lock.jbosscache.JDBCCacheLoader" async="false" fetchPersistentState="false" ignoreModifications="false" purgeOnStartup="false"> <properties> cache.jdbc.table.name=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.table.name} cache.jdbc.table.create=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.table.create} cache.jdbc.table.drop=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.table.drop} cache.jdbc.table.primarykey=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.table.primarykey} cache.jdbc.fqn.column=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.fqn.column} cache.jdbc.fqn.type=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.fqn.type} cache.jdbc.node.column=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.node.column} cache.jdbc.node.type=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.node.type} cache.jdbc.parent.column=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.parent.column} cache.jdbc.datasource=${jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.datasource} </properties> </loader> </loaders> </jbosscache>
As you see, all configurable parameters are filled by templates and will be replaced by LockManagers configuration parameters:
<lock-manager class="org.exoplatform.services.jcr.impl.core.lock.jbosscache.CacheableLockManagerImpl"> <properties> <property name="time-out" value="15m" /> <property name="jbosscache-configuration" value="test-jbosscache-lock.xml" /> <property name="jgroups-configuration" value="udp-mux.xml" /> <property name="jgroups-multiplexer-stack" value="true" /> <property name="jbosscache-cluster-name" value="JCR-cluster-locks-ws" /> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.table.name" value="jcrlocks_ws" /> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.table.create" value="true" /> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.table.drop" value="false" /> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.table.primarykey" value="jcrlocks_ws_pk" /> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.fqn.column" value="fqn" /> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.fqn.type" value="AUTO"/> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.node.column" value="node" /> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.node.type" value="AUTO"/> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.parent.column" value="parent" /> <property name="jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.datasource" value="jdbcjcr" /> </properties> </lock-manager>
Configuration requirements:
jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.fqn.column
and jbosscache-cl-cache.jdbc.node.type
is
the same as cache.jdbc.fqn.type and cache.jdbc.node.type in
JBoss-Cache configuration. You can set those data types according
to your database type or set it as AUTO (or do not set at all) and
data type will be detected automatically.
As you see, jgroups-configuration is moved to separate the configuration file - udp-mux.xml. In this case, the udp-mux.xml file is a common JGroup configuration for all components (QueryHandler, Cache, LockManager), but we can still create our own configuration.
