+=== Standalone Clustered
+
+Standalone clustered operation mode is for when you want to run {{book.project.name}} within a cluster.  This mode
+requires that you have a copy of each distribution for each node you want to run in the cluster.  While very easy to
+deploy initially, this mode can become cumbersome if you end up having a large cluster because you will have to
+modify the configuration in each node anytime you need to make a change.
+
+==== Standalone Clustered Configuration
+
+The distribution has a pre-configured app server configuration file for running within a cluster.  It has all the specific
+infrasture settings you need for the clustered caches and discovery that {{book.project.name}} needs.  This file resides
+in _.../standalone/configuration/standalone-ha.xml_

+NOTE: Any changes you make to this file while the server is running will not take effect and may even be overwritten

+      the link:{{book.appserver.admindoc.link}}[{{book.appserver.admindoc.name}}] for more information.
+
+==== Standalone Boot Script
+
+You use the same boot scripts to start {{book.project.name}} as you do in standalone mode.  The difference is that
+you pass in an additional flag to point to the HA config file.

+==== Standalone Clustered{{book.project.name}} Configuration

+The {{book.project.name}} specific json configure file resides in the same place as in standalone mode: _.../standalone/configuration/keycloak.json_.
