I am using similar set up as described by jessezbj in the earlier post. I am having four brokers on the same machine. All the brokers have same brokername, but listen on different ports. I am not using multi-cast and auto-discovery.
The problem is, if one of the broker hangs, rest of the brokers also hang. I do not get any exception in rest of the brokers or their consumers. Following is the activemq.xml that is used: [same xml is used for all the brokers by changing the ports] <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:amq="http://activemq.apache.org/schema/core" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.0.xsd http://activemq.apache.org/schema/core http://activemq.apache.org/schema/core/activemq-core.xsd http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring/camel-spring.xsd"> <bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer"> <property name="locations"> <value>file:///${activemq.base}/conf/credentials.properties</value> </property> </bean> <broker xmlns="http://activemq.apache.org/schema/core" brokerName="192.168.200.71" dataDirectory="${activemq.base}/data"> <destinationPolicy> <policyMap> <policyEntries> <policyEntry queue=">" memoryLimit="5mb"> <messageEvictionStrategy> <oldestMessageEvictionStrategy/> </messageEvictionStrategy> </policyEntry> <policyEntry topic=">" memoryLimit="5mb"> <dispatchPolicy> <strictOrderDispatchPolicy/> </dispatchPolicy> <subscriptionRecoveryPolicy> <lastImageSubscriptionRecoveryPolicy/> </subscriptionRecoveryPolicy> </policyEntry> </policyEntries> </policyMap> </destinationPolicy> <managementContext> <managementContext createConnector="true"/> </managementContext> <networkConnectors> --> </networkConnectors> <persistenceAdapter> <amqPersistenceAdapter syncOnWrite="false" directory="${activemq.base}/data" maxFileLength="20 mb"/> </persistenceAdapter> <sslContext> <sslContext keyStore="file:${activemq.base}/conf/broker.ks" keyStorePassword="password" trustStore="file:${activemq.base}/conf/broker.ts" trustStorePassword="password"/> </sslContext> <systemUsage> <systemUsage> <memoryUsage> <memoryUsage limit="512 mb"/> </memoryUsage> <storeUsage> <storeUsage limit="1 gb" name="foo"/> </storeUsage> <tempUsage> <tempUsage limit="100 mb"/> </tempUsage> </systemUsage> </systemUsage> <transportConnectors> <transportConnector name="openwire" uri="tcp://192.168.200.71:61619" /> </transportConnectors> </broker> <camelContext id="camel" xmlns="http://activemq.apache.org/camel/schema/spring"> <package>org.foo.bar</package> <route> <from uri="activemq:example.A"/> <to uri="activemq:example.B"/> </route> </camelContext> <bean id="activemq" class="org.apache.activemq.camel.component.ActiveMQComponent" > <property name="connectionFactory"> <bean class="org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnectionFactory"> <property name="brokerURL" value="vm://192.168.200.71?create=false&waitForStart=10000" /> <property name="userName" value="${activemq.username}"/> <property name="password" value="${activemq.password}"/> </bean> </property> </bean> <jetty xmlns="http://mortbay.com/schemas/jetty/1.0"> <connectors> <nioConnector port="8164"/> </connectors> <handlers> <webAppContext contextPath="/admin" resourceBase="${activemq.base}/webapps/admin" logUrlOnStart="true"/> <webAppContext contextPath="/demo" resourceBase="${activemq.base}/webapps/demo" logUrlOnStart="true"/> <webAppContext contextPath="/fileserver" resourceBase="${activemq.base}/webapps/fileserver" logUrlOnStart="true"/> </handlers> </jetty> </beans> Any leads to identify the root cause is appreciated.
