    Description

      JRMPInvokerProxyHA will allow a failover if the invocation throws a java.rmi.UnmarshalException. This is invalid, as there is no way to know if the exception is due to a problem on the server side (i.e. before the invocation was handled by the Invoker) or on the client side (when unmarshalling a response).

      Per the UnmarshalException javadoc:

      An UnmarshalException can be thrown while unmarshalling the parameters or results of a remote method call if any of the following conditions occur:

      • if an exception occurs while unmarshalling the call header
      • if the protocol for the return value is invalid
      • if a java.io.IOException occurs unmarshalling parameters (on the server side) or the return value (on the client side).
      • if a java.lang.ClassNotFoundException occurs during unmarshalling parameters or return values
      • if no skeleton can be loaded on the server-side; note that skeletons are required in the 1.1 stub protocol, but not in the 1.2 stub protocol.
      • if the method hash is invalid (i.e., missing method).
      • if there is a failure to create a remote reference object for a remote object's stub when it is unmarshalled.
