TL;DR I would like to instantiate the connection factory even when the broker is down. How should I achieve this?
I am creating a ActiveMQConnectionFactory using the following URL: failover:(tcp://localhost:61616)?jms.warnAboutUnstartedConnectionTimeout=30000&initialReconnectDelay=2000&maxReconnectAttempts=2&maxReconnectDelay=2000&startupMaxReconnectAttempts=1 The connectionfactory object is not created if the broker is down at the time of creation. As I understand the failover mechanism helps in scenarios when the connection factory is already created and the ActiveMQ server is restarted. -- Sent from: http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/ActiveMQ-User-f2341805.html
