use diffirent extension on different node ?

[Former Member]

Hi guys ;

As you know , we have more than one cluster and nodes in production env. My question is about localextensions.xml. Should this xml be same for all nodes ? If so why?

If not; I have an explanation which is from wiki hybris ; https://wiki.hybris.com/display/hybrisALF/Infrastructure+Considerations :

" Pitfalls Do not attempt to remove backoffice extensions from local extensions.xml or by using the myextensionname.webroot=. You should have the same local extensions.xml loaded on all nodes, and the feature would cause the hac not to work. You need hac to verify granular cache metrics and other diagnostics features such as clustering verification that are not currently available by JMX. "

What is the right way for this?

Thanks in advance

Hi , can we restrict HMC/HAC/BACKOFFICE on storefront nodes?

The recommendation it's always been to have a common set of extensions on all nodes, and block access to Backoffice extensions using reverse proxy rules. Additionally if you need to avoid thread pool creation or hotfolder processes or any resources and timers to start on storefront nodes you have the option to control those using node specific properties.
