Hello, I am struggling to get my client to failover as I'd expect in my cluster.
I am expecting that when 1 node fails my client should jump to that node's backup in the topology. However, what I see occur is my client jumps to another primary node instead. Sometimes I do see things behave as expected but it seems to depend on where my consumers get initially created. For example, if I have consumer A end up on broker A, and consumer B end up on broker B, then when I close broker A consumer A will just jump over to broker B instead of jumping over to its replicated backup. Then if I close broker B after restarting broker A the consumer that had previously jumped to broker B will jump back to broker A while the other consumer properly goes into the back up for broker B. I am currently using Spring and running a JMS implementation. I'm not sure if it will change anything or be of importance but I am using a replicated setup for HA where I have all 6 nodes just running locally with ports offset. The end goal will be 3 servers but for now this is just so I can test things out. I've also read these docs on client failover<https://activemq.apache.org/components/artemis/documentation/latest/client-failover.html#reconnect-to-the-backup-server> which makes me think all I should have to do is add 'HA' and 'reconnectAttempts' to my connection factory URL, however this has proved fruitless. I have an open stack overflow question for this problem as well which may help provide more detail. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79452615/client-failover-not-failing-to-backup-broker-first Here is some additional info: I have confirmed that replication is working and in my primary broker logs I see AMQ221025: Replication: sending NIOSequentialFile when I boot up my backups (As well as the AMQ221031: backup announced on my backup). Viewing my network topology also shows me what I would expect to see (3 primaries paired with 3 backups). I have tried entirely removing my CachedConnectionFactory. I have tried deleting and remaking each of my brokers just in case. (This seemed to work for a brief period).
