currently I am evaluating HA-Policy for artemis and came across strange situation where slave nodes goes missing after simple restart, below configuration
<ha-policy> <shared-store> <colocated> <request-backup>true</request-backup> <max-backups>1</max-backups> <master> <failover-on-shutdown>true</failover-on-shutdown> </master> <slave> <failover-on-shutdown>true</failover-on-shutdown> <restart-backup>true</restart-backup> <allow-failback>true</allow-failback> </slave> </colocated> </shared-store> </ha-policy> i follow below steps to evaluate 1) start both servers and verify both servers has master as active and backup of each as passive shutdown server 1, verify server 2 has master and colocated backup both active start server 1, verify fail-back occurred for server 1 so server has active master server 2 has master as active and backup of server 1 as passive but during this process when server 1 is up it does not run any backup it has only master active no new request for backup generated from server 2 and it looses backup completely not sure what could be wrong in this configuration as this could be very basic scenario where i expect that after server restart each server have one backup running. I am using artemis 2.6.2 version -- Sent from: http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/ActiveMQ-User-f2341805.html
