When running Payara on Windows, this version of Hazelcast throws a warning in the server logs, similar to this: “Ignoring TCP_KEEPCOUNT. It seems your JDK does not support jdk.net.ExtendedSocketOptions on this OS. Try upgrading to the latest JDK or check with your JDK vendor. Alternatively, on Linux, configure tcp_keepalive_probes in the kernel (affecting default keep-alive configuration for all sockets). This is a Hazelcast known issue that is documented here.
