License for Alfresco Cluster

[mfaquih]

We are setting up alfresco-4.2.4 cluster (two nodes only) using the documentation mentioned under the following path: (http://docs.alfresco.com/4.2/concepts/cluster-overview.html)

While starting up the first node we received the following error:

2017-05-03 10:44:07,076  INFO  [web.site.EditionInterceptor] [http-bio-8443-exec-5] Unable to retrieve License information from Alfresco: 404.

Can you please confirm that in order to setup alfresco cluster we need a different license which supports alfresco clustering?

That error message does not mean that you need a different license - it means that Share cannot contact the Repository and thus cannot retrieve the license details (whatever license is currently installed). This can be the result of a simple startup error on the Repository-tier, resulting in ReST API services not being available. Check your alfresco.log for details.
