ActiveMQ failover question

[rd7 <ri...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

  We are using ActiveMQ 4.1.1 and are in the process of testing failover.

  We have 2 servers (host 1 & host2), each with 1 broker and 2 publishers
each.  So, the 2 publishers that are on host1 send messages to the broker on
host1 and use host2 as failover, and vice versa for host2.

 There are 2 clients, each of which are deployed on different servers. 
Client 1 connects to host1 first (with host2 as failover) and vice-versa for
client 2.

  If the broker on host1 goes down, the publishers on host1 and client1 will
failover to host2.  If the broker on host1 comes back up, is there a way for
the publishers on host1 and client1 to revert back automatically to using
the broker on host1 again?

Here is the example of our URL:

failover://(tcp://host1:61616,tcp://host2:61616)?wireFormat.maxInactivityDuration=0&initialReconnectDelay=100&randomize=false

Thanks for your help.

Not currently - you can add this as a feature request - or contribute  
a patch ;)
