Hmmm... That's the example I have used but I don't get the config correct...
The is the config for the central broker:
<networkConnector name="bridge_boserver1"
uri="static://(tcp://10.4.34.26:61616)" dynamicOnly="true"
conduitSubscriptions="false" decreaseNetworkConsumerPriority="false">
<excludedDestinations>
<queue
physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfiles_boserver2"/>
</excludedDestinations>
<staticallyIncludedDestinations>
<queue physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.queue"/>
<queue
physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfiles_boserver1"/>
<queue physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfilesall"/>
</staticallyIncludedDestinations>
<duplex>true</duplex>
<networkTTL>1</networkTTL>
</networkConnector>
<networkConnector name="bridge_boserver2"
uri="static://(tcp://10.4.34.19:61616)" dynamicOnly="true"
conduitSubscriptions="false" decreaseNetworkConsumerPriority="false">
<excludedDestinations>
<queue
physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfiles_boserver1"/>
</excludedDestinations>
<staticallyIncludedDestinations>
<queue physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.queue"/>
<queue
physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfiles_boserver2"/>
<queue physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfilesall"/>
</staticallyIncludedDestinations>
<duplex>true</duplex>
<networkTTL>1</networkTTL>
</networkConnector>
</networkConnectors>
And this is for the boserver1 broker..:
<networkConnectors>
<!-- by default just auto discover the other brokers -->
<!--<networkConnector name="default-nc"
uri="multicast://default"/>-->
<!-- Example of a static configuration:
<networkConnector name="host1 and host2"
uri="static://(tcp://host1:61616,tcp://host2:61616)"/>
-->
<networkConnector name="bridge"
uri="static://(tcp://10.4.34.10:61616)" dynamicOnly="true"
conduitSubscriptions="false" decreaseNetworkConsumerPriority="false">
<staticallyIncludedDestinations>
<queue physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.queue"/>
<queue
physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfiles_boserver1"/>
<queue physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfilesall"/>
</staticallyIncludedDestinations>
<duplex>true</duplex>
<networkTTL>1</networkTTL>
</networkConnector>
</networkConnectors>
And this is for the boserver2 broker..:
<networkConnectors>
<!-- by default just auto discover the other brokers -->
<!-- Example of a static configuration:
<networkConnector name="host1 and host2"
uri="static://(tcp://host1:61616,tcp://host2:61616)"/>
-->
<networkConnector name="bridge"
uri="static://(tcp://10.4.34.10:61616)" dynamicOnly="true"
conduitSubscriptions="false" decreaseNetworkConsumerPriority="false">
<staticallyIncludedDestinations>
<queue physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.queue"/>
<queue
physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfiles_boserver2"/>
<queue physicalName="no.asp.nexstep.xmlfilesall"/>
</staticallyIncludedDestinations>
<duplex>true</duplex>
<networkTTL>1</networkTTL>
</networkConnector>
</networkConnectors>
The problem is that all the queues are available on both boserver1 broker and
boserv2 broker (I thought that boserver1 should not see the bosever2
queue and boserver2 should not have seen the boserver1 queue but they do).
What I want is messages posted on boserver1 should only reach the central
broker (and not the boserver2 broker). Also messages posted on the central
broker should reach either boserver1 or boserver2 (and not based on a random
outcome which). Also some messages posted on the central broker should
be delivered to both boserver1 and boserver2 broker...
So what am I missing?
