I've a HL consumer receiving messages using four threads (four partitions). This is a stand-alone Java client. For fail-safe reasons, I want to run another instance of the exact same Java client in a different box.
Here are my questions: > Can I keep the same consumer group name or it must be different for the 2nd > instance? > If same consumer group, will the 2nd client receive same set of messages > again? > In general what's the best practice to designing fail-safe clients? Thanks Sam
