> We have a simple setup where an AMQ broker is connected to from one producer and two consumers. The producer tends to be colocated on the broker's host so 
> comms is never an issue there. However, consumers can come and go because the underlying comms may not be reliable.
> The consumers are connected with differing priorities so that the broker directs all messages to a single consumer normally and switches over to the 
> other consumer when the primary consumer disconnects for whatever reason.
> This arrangement seems to work fine most of the time, but sometimes (and we cannot identify the cause), upon a comms error
> or a consumer error (that may mean messages are not acknowledged within some time period), the broker switches over to the 
> secondary consumer. That in itself if good, of course. However, when the primary consumer reconnects back to the queue as 
> primary, messages are not being delivered to it at all - the only way to fix this seems to be to restart the broker.
> We cannot even force the broker to drop the connections (we're limited in the way we can use jconsole with those brokers, particularly with the WinNT ones).
