Hi Prakash, Actually the MM is HA such that it used a consumer group fetching data from the source DC and another producer pushing them to the destination DC. So suppose there are two instances of MM as in your case, each of the instance will get half of the traffic mirroring to the other DC since they have consumers in the same group. When one of them dies, the load balance will automatically moves all its traffic to the other instance.
