How to make a node storage disabled for a particular cache?

Question

I have multiple caches that are distributed across the nodes in my application. Can I disable storage (localstorage=false) for a certain cache in a node.
Intention is to make something like this:
CacheA distributed between node1 and node2
CacheB distributed between node1 and node3
Thus none of the node would be a non storage node completely here. Hence I would be required to specify this in the coherence-config.xml. If the answer is following for node 2
<distributed-scheme>
     <scheme-name>CacheB</_CacheEvent_scheme-name>
     <service-name>DistributedCache</service-name>
     *<local-storage>false</local-storage>*
     <backing-map-scheme>
     <local-scheme>
     <scheme-ref>backingSchemeB</scheme-ref>
     </local-scheme>
     </backing-map-scheme>
     <autostart>true</autostart>
     </distributed-scheme>
     <local-scheme>
     <scheme-name>backingSchemeB</scheme-name>
     </local-scheme>
What should be the backing scheme, as my local storage is false for cacheB?

Hi Mahesh,
you can control the storage-enablement of distributed caches on a per-service basis.
In your case, you have to put cache A and cache B into different services (serviceA and serviceB for the example) and run service A as storage-enabled on nodes 1 and 2, and service B as storage-enabled on nodes 1 and 3.
