problem with clustering with JBoss serverhelp needed

Hi,

Its a HUMBLE REQUEST TO THE EXPERIENCED persons.

I am new to clustering. My objective is to attain clustering with load balencing and/or Failover in JBoss server. I have two JBoss servers running in two diffferent IP addresses which form my cluster. I could succesfully perform farm (all/farm) deployment

in my cluster.

I do believe that if clustering is enabled; and if one of the server(s1) goes down, then the other(s2) will serve the requests coming to s1. Am i correct? Or is that true only in the case of "Failover clustering". If it is correct, what are all the things i have to do to achieve it?

As i am new to the topic,can any one explain me how a simple application (say getting a value from a user and storing it in the database--assume every is there in a WAR file),can be deployed with load balencing and failover support rather than going in to clustering EJB or anything difficult to understand.

Kindly help me in this mattter. Atleast give me some hints and i ll learn from that.Becoz i could n't find a step by step procedure explainingwhich configuration files are to be changed to achieve this (and how) for achiving this. Also i could n't find Books explaining this rather than usual theorectical concepts.

Thanking you in advance

with respect
