Simple high availability setup
Hi all,
I have a simple requirement to set up 2 brokers to provide some resilience
to our solution. Unfortunately, the consumer I'll be using is a proprietary
tool that can only accept very simple (hostname / port / destination name)
connection details to the brokers and so as far as I can tell I can't use
the failover: protocol here.
Can I use something like a master/slave configuration with a separate load
balancer sitting in front of the brokers? This would then give a single
connection point that I can aim our consumer at. Is there a better way of
doing this?
Many thanks in advance,
jb6622

No problem - nb it's port 8161 not 8162

Hi Dave,
Many thanks, that's an interesting approach - we are indeed using v5. I'll
look into our load balancer's capabilities to see if I can do just that.
Much appreciated!

Hi
What version of ActiveMQ are you referring to? For v5, it is possible to have a load balancer health check http://hostname:8162/jolokia/api on both broker instances of a master/slave setup - if it receives a response then this is the master and it should direct all traffic to this node.
