    Is there any documentation on how to configure a domain data grid with multiple Payara instances? The documentation says that it’s configured in the domain.xml, but does not indicate where in the domain.xml should the IPs be set…

      Hi,

      To join Payara instances to a domain data grid, set discovery mode in each instance. In detail, see https://docs.payara.fish/documentation/payara-server/hazelcast/discovery.html

      If a Payara instace which you connect to a data grid is in same domain, you would set only discovery mode to “domain”. Since the instances know DAS’s IP address, they could find DAS and join a data grid.

    Hi, I can’t figure out how to add a second full Payara server to existing data grid while with Payara micro all is ok (thanks Your video). Can You point me to the right direction? Thanks
