Description

Presently, it's impossible to start a new distributed cache dynamically deploying it on server nodes and create a near cache for the distributed cache right after that.

According to the documentation, it was feasible before (refer to the example).
https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/near-caches

All the time I start the near cache on a client node following the example I get the exception below

Exception in thread "main" javax.cache.CacheException: class org.apache.ignite.IgniteCheckedException: Failed to start near cache (a cache with the same name without near cache is already started)
