EjbHome caching

[mridul das]

We have two applications running on two different Weblogic 8.1 servers. Both are clustered.
There are some points of integration between the two.
We cache the ejbHome references in static variables in the Servicelocator.
Suppose one server goes down and then comes up while the other is running, the cached ejbHome references to that server still exists. Calling ejbHome.create() on that reference is not ausing any problem if <home_is_clusterable> is True. However if it is false it throws an Exception.
Is it a good idea to cache the home references. Why is there no problem if
<home_is_clusterable> is True.

When home-is-clusterable it means that EJB is available in all servers of the cluster. SO if create call when made on one server fails it invokes it on another server.
