* This annotation should be used on methods that need to be notified when the cache is used in a cluster and the

* <p/>
* Methods annotated with this annotation should accept a single parameter, a {@link

* Any exceptions thrown by the listener will abort the call. Any other listeners not yet called will not be called,
