[jira] [Commented] (ACE-380) Make the management agent work with multiple URLs.

["Marcel Offermans (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACE-380?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13793939#comment-13793939 ] 

Marcel Offermans commented on ACE-380:
--------------------------------------

As a default algorithm, I think this behaviour is just fine. It allows people to configure a main server and one or more fallbacks in case the main one is not available. More advanced algorithms tend to make choices that not everybody might agree with (round-robin is good if you're load balancing, but not in all cases, the same goes for detecting if a server is "too busy"). Discovery is plug-able so users can create more complex behaviours if they need them.

> In ACE-379 multiple URLs are introduced. The management agent specifically should support using those and contacting them using some simple algorithm (ie: if the first is busy, go on to the next).
