How to disable Session EJB (SLSB/SFSB) clustering while leaving web session replication enabled in JBoss EAP 7

Resolution

Change the distributed-cache to local-cache for example:

/subsystem=infinispan/cache-container=ejb/local-cache=passivation:add()
/subsystem=infinispan/cache-container=ejb/local-cache=passivation/component=locking:add(isolation=REPEATABLE_READ)
/subsystem=infinispan/cache-container=ejb/local-cache=passivation/component=transaction:add(mode=BATCH)
/subsystem=infinispan/cache-container=ejb/local-cache=passivation/store=file:add(passivation=true,purge=false)
/subsystem=infinispan/cache-container=ejb:write-attribute(name=default-cache,value=passivation)
/subsystem=infinispan/cache-container=ejb/distributed-cache=dist:remove()

From:

  <cache-container name="ejb" aliases="sfsb" default-cache="dist" module="org.wildfly.clustering.ejb.infinispan">
    <transport lock-timeout="60000"/>
    <distributed-cache name="dist">
      <locking isolation="REPEATABLE_READ"/>
      <transaction mode="BATCH"/>
      <file-store/>
    </distributed-cache>
  </cache-container>

To:

  <cache-container name="ejb" aliases="sfsb" default-cache="passivation" module="org.wildfly.clustering.ejb.infinispan">
    <transport lock-timeout="60000"/>
    <local-cache name="passivation">
      <locking isolation="REPEATABLE_READ"/>
      <transaction mode="BATCH"/>
      <file-store passivation="true" purge="false"/>
    </local-cache>
  </cache-container>
