1. Re: Core Bridge Fail over to nodes on a different cluster

2. Re: Core Bridge Fail over to nodes on a different cluster
zeebot Jan 10, 2012 12:15 PM (in response to ataylor)Hi Andy
Ok so would having a backup server for each live server help resolve my issue for ensuring the JMS message was sent successfully to the second cluster ?.
Also lets forget the notion of clusters as i am not so worried about clustering as i am about ensuring the JMS message is either sent to the correct server in the event it had crashed / shutdown. So NodeA wants to send a JMS message to NodeB on another network, however if NodeB is not in operation NodeA will send to NodeC or possibly even Node D if NodeC is not available also.
I could write an application to deliver the message to the other consumers but want to know if JBOSS does this out of the box without having to spend too much effort.
Any help would be much appreciated as i am struggling to setup the configuration with JBOSS 6.
Kind regards
Zahid

Yes, but remember backup servers are passive and dont become live until failure occurs. You can configure as many backups as you want but they will all be passive, iwould start by looking at some of the failover examples shipped with HornetQ
your topology would look something like
node A(cluster1) ----------------------------> live A(cluster2)
|
|-----------backup A(cluster2)
node B(cluster1) ----------------------------> live B(cluster2)
|
|-----------backup B(cluster2)
