Nope, that shouldn't be expected. It should only log that if the connection is first created:
if (firstConnection) { firstConnection = false; LOG.info("Successfully connected to " + uri); } else { LOG.info("Successfully reconnected to " + uri); } Not sure what you mean here: "I have 2 AMQ 5.7 brokers, one sends messages to the other via a JMSTemplate/PooledConnectionFactory/FailoverTransport. " 2 brokers and one sends to the other using JmsTemplate?
