Hey folks, i am still struggling with the auto-failover feature of brokers in a broker network.
Consider that i have two brokers, each of them connected to the other like this over SSL: <networkConnectors> <networkConnector name="remote_ssl" uri="static://(ssl://my-bloody-valentine:61617)" /> </networkConnectors> Works like a charm. Now consider that i have one Broker - called A - connected to a Cluster of 2 other brokers, called B and C. So the networkconnector for Broker A looks like: <networkConnectors> <networkConnector name="remote_ssl" uri="static://(ssl://broker-B:61617, ssl://broker-C:61617)" /> </networkConnectors> And the networkConnectors of B and C simply point to A like this: <networkConnectors> <networkConnector name="remote_ssl" uri="static://(ssl://broker-A:61617)" /> </networkConnectors> So far, so good. Now i start broker-A and broker-B / broker-C from the cluster. This works fine, meaning i can stop broker-B, then broker-C becomes the master, messages are correctly transmitted and so on. But broker-A always gives me annoying errors like this: INFO DiscoveryNetworkConnector - Establishing network connection between from vm://localhost to ssl://broker-C:61627 WARN DiscoveryNetworkConnector - Could not start network bridge between: vm://localhost and: ssl://broker-C:61627 due to: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused INFO DemandForwardingBridge - localhost bridge to Unknown stopped ERROR TransportConnector - Could not accept connection : org.apache.activemq.transport.TransportDisposedIOException: Peer (vm://localhost#68) disposed. org.apache.activemq.transport.TransportDisposedIOException: Peer (vm://localhost#68) disposed. at org.apache.activemq.transport.vm.VMTransport.oneway(VMTransport.java:87) at org.apache.activemq.transport.MutexTransport.oneway(MutexTransport.java:40) at org.apache.activemq.transport.ResponseCorrelator.oneway(ResponseCorrelator.java:59) at org.apache.activemq.broker.TransportConnection.dispatch(TransportConnection.java:1178) at org.apache.activemq.broker.TransportConnection.processDispatch(TransportConnection.java:797) at org.apache.activemq.broker.TransportConnection.start(TransportConnection.java:878) at org.apache.activemq.broker.TransportConnector$1$1.run(TransportConnector.java:152) INFO DiscoveryNetworkConnector - Establishing network connection between Well, of course can the connection from broker-A to broker-C not be established, because broker-C works initially as slave and is thus not reachable. BUT: If activemq-brokers do an autofailover, why don't they realize by themselves that some hosts in their list are not reachable and stop spamming my console with the same error message? How can i get rid of this error message (by configuration, not by ignorance...:-)? So far as i can tell, the system works flawless despite the error message. P.S.: A uri-prefix like "failover" does not work with brokers. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Broker-autofailover%3A-Why-don%27t-brokers-check-that-a-host-is-down-by-themselves--tf4654450s2354.html#a13298393 Sent from the ActiveMQ - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
