I know it's probably a dumb question, > but I must ask. What are you trying to achieve? Sharing the load between multiple servers? Fail over (with data loss) if one server fails? Fail over without data loss if one server fails? The first two can be done. The third would require some tool that could reliably serialize any Java object regardless of whether it was serializable. I haven't come across such a tool but that doesn't mean one doesn't exist.
