initial-connect-attempts and reconnect-attempts difference

[zont]

User manual says on the page 220 under “Failing over on the initial connection” the “…initial-connect-attempts in xml”. Which xml-config-file is  meant?

I tried first to hornetq-jms.xml and then to hornetq-configuration.xml. Both doesn’t work, SAXParseException will be thrown.

Furthermore, what is the difference between reconnect-attempts and initial-connect-attempts?

Thank you.

That's an oversight in the doc: in hornetq-jms.xml, you can add the <initial-connect-attempts> to <connection-factory> elements.

Initial connect attempts is the number of attempts to connect the 1st time to the server.

Reconnect attemps is for subsequent reconnection attempts.
