Problem

Cluster  health check is failing for cache replication and the following stack trace is present in Atlassian-jira.log

{cacheName='', action=REMOVE_ALL, key=null, value=null, creationTimeInMillis=1534168756786}from cache replication queue: [queueId=queue_node1_6_4701d15959342d6659cddeeebe1bdbe7, queuePath=/var/atlassian/jira-home/localq/queue_nodexxxxxx7], failuresCount: 10/10.

Affected Versions:

Jira Data Center versions 7.9 and above with Clustering enabled

Cause

Individual hostnames are not resolvable by other Jira Data Center nodes in the cluster.

This can also occur if there's an invalid hostname set by a JVM parameter:

-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=localhost

(warning) "-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=" parameter defined inside the "<install-path>/bin/setenv.sh" will override the parameter "ehcache.listener.hostName=" in the file "<jira-home>/cluster.properties"

Resolution

There are 3 possible solutions for this issue:

  1. Remove the offending input from the file "<install-path>/bin/setenv.sh"
  2. Set this parameter value to the machine's IP address;
  3. Set this parameter value to a resolvable hostname;


(warning) JIRA must be restarted for this change to take effect
