Client reliability

[jmfaerman]

I am using hornetq (for the first time) to develop a basic event system.

In this first design, a message with the event is generated on a client to be received by a remote MDB bound to a queue.

The problem is that the connection between the client and the server is unreliable.

Is it possible to configure the client to automatically retry delivery or must i have a "client side queue" and "pump" the messages myself?

Have you read this?

If you were implementing a MessageListener it would be trivial to also implement an ExceptionListener which could reconnect automatically like this one.  However, it sounds like you are just sending messages which probably means you'll be best served by writing your own retry logic if sending fails.
