We also plan to use master/slave.
The 'waitForSlave' seems a bit strange for me, since our main reason for
adding some slaves is to avoid a single point of failure (i.e. the
master). But what if the slave fails? Does the required 'waitForSlave'
mean that we can't run a master without his slaves? Doesn't this even
increase the risk of failure?
In an ideal world i would expect that using master slave would meen
simply start a borker (first will be the master), add any slaves you
want (which should be configured by the clients) any time later and
beeing able to indipendly start/stop/crash one of them: The whole
messaging system should remain stable as long at least one broker is up.
Is this possible with activeMQ? Which version should we use (currently
we use 5.2, not yet in Master/Slave, JDBC persistance).
Are there any special settings we need to set to achieve the goal
discribed above?
Greetings,
Norbert

Thank you for your reply.
I know about the 'waitForSlave' attribute, but it is not really what I need.
I would like to be able to add a backup machine (and hence a slave broker)
at some later time, without having to restart the master broker and all the
producer/consumer connections to it. I would have expected that when a slave
connected that it could learn about all messages/producers/consumers
connected to the master, and continue operating correctly.
But from what you are saying, this is not possible? Will it be available
when the Kaha DB feature is available?
Many thanks again.

the brokers need to be in sync from the start. there is a waitForSlave
attribute that can force the master to stall till the slave connects. see:

Hi,
I am having an issue with a simple master/slave setup. My master is
running
on one machine (192.168.10.141), and my slave is running on a separate
machine (192.168.10.1). Attached are the config files for both master and
slave, and the log files for master and slave. I am running broker
version
5.2.0 and using activemq CPP library 3.0.1. My producer and consumers are
using the supplied sample code.
On the master broker I get an exception saying the following:
ERROR MasterBroker - Slave Failed: ...
On the slave broker I get an exception daying teh following:
ERROR Service - Async error occurred: ...
Please see attached log files for complete exceptions.
I can easily reproduce the errors under the following conditions:
1. Start the master broker
2. Start a producer that connects to the master broker and sends 10
messages
to queue TEST.FOO. Producer disconnects.
3. Start the slave broker. It connects to teh master broker successfully.
3. Start a consumer that connects to the master broker. It will retrieve
the
messages successfuly, but will cause the exceptions on both brokers.
It doesn't matter if the producer and consumer connect to the broker
using
the failover mechanism (using 2 addresses) or not.
If I start both brokers first, before connecting any producers/consumers
then I do not get the exceptions, but in the application I would like to
use
activemq in, it is not unreasonable that the master broker will have some
activity before the slave broker is ready to connect.
Should activemq work the way I would like it to work, and if so what am I
doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Brendan
