You can define how many times you want the client to attempt to reconnect - irrespective of how host names are mapped to physical real IP addresses. e.g. use failover with a single logical hostname/IP adress. > Is it correct to configure a producer connection URL to the load balancer > something like this: > > > failover://(tcp://host:61616)?maxReconnectAttempts=1&initialReconnectDelay=200 > > By the way, I tried the above URL and id doesn't seem to work. Does increasing the maxReconnectAttempts help? -- James ------- http://macstrac.blogspot.com/ Open Source Integration http://open.iona.com
