---------------------------

             Summary: Failover transport should not hang on startup if it cannot connect & Failover transport timeout options overrides reconnection strategy
                 Key: AMQ-5588
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-5588
             Project: ActiveMQ
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: Unix, Mule ESB, AMQ- 5.9, java
            Reporter: Savita
            Priority: Blocker


I am having issues discussed in the 2 defects (AMQ-2114) & (AMQCPP-545)
(AMQ-2114) Failover transport should not hang on startup if it cannot connect

(AMQCPP-545) Failover transport timeout options should only operate on Message sends.

If AMQ is down while on startup, the reconnect strategy does not work and blocks there forever. 
To overcome this blocking issue, we are setting timeout on the broker. But, this will throw a Failover timeout exception. 

Once this exception occurs, the mule server is not able to deploy the applications which are depending on this connection. However, we have no issues if the connection goes down after the applications are deployed. The applications successfully reconnect to AMQ once, the connection is up.

This problem is happening if the mule server is started while the AMQ is down. The applications fail to get deployed despite the <reconnect-forever blocking="false" frequency="3000"/> strategy. This is because of the Failover timeout exception.

Here is the part of log:
Caused by: java.io.IOException: Failover timeout of 30000 ms reached.
        at org.apache.activemq.transport.failover.FailoverTransport.oneway(FailoverTransport.java:532)
        at org.apache.activemq.transport.MutexTransport.oneway(MutexTransport.java:40)
        at org.apache.activemq.transport.ResponseCorrelator.asyncRequest(ResponseCorrelator.java:81)
        at org.apache.activemq.transport.ResponseCorrelator.request(ResponseCorrelator.java:86)
        at org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnection.syncSendPacket(ActiveMQConnection.java:1284)

Please, help me with the fix. We are using Unix servers.

Let me know if you need more information.
