I'm working with jboss AS 6.1.0, two instances running in cluster.

Almost every time I deploy a new set of artifacts (in farm folder) i.e.:

1. Stop server 1, server 2.

2. Copy a new set of jars, wars,ears  in farm folder.

3. Start server1, server 2.

When bringing up the second server, all the services from the first server (the master) are undeployed /stopped and

automatically started afterwards.

Subsequent restarts work fine.

Note: if I increased the scanPeriod to 300 of the HDScanner (in profile.xml under server instance /conf/bootstrap folder), see:

<bean name="ScanPeriod" class="org.jboss.profileservice.profile.metadata.plugin.ScanPeriod">

        <property name="scanPeriod">300</property>

  </bean>

  the issue reoccurred less frequently.

I would appreciate any hints on how to troubleshoot this issue.
