JCA Integration with remote HornetQ in clustered environment

[msudha_99]

I am trying to use HornetQ resource adapter to communicate with standalone HornetQ servers running in clustered environment. We have NodeA, NodeB and their backups NodeA-Backup and NodeB-Backup. I could able to send and receive messages but my scenario is if I disconnect/shutdown NodeA it should failover to NodeA-Backup. That is working as expected. Next try is shutdown the NodeA-Backup also then expecting messages to go to NodeB and that's where my issue is. It's hanging on creating the session (believe not getting lock). I am not sure should I use different connection pool configurations for sending messages than receiving? In this scenario I am excluding messaging subsystem.

The same scenario works fine if I have the messaging subsystem with jms-connection-factories defined as specified in the attachment.

I am using JBoss EAP 6.2 with HornetQ 2.4.0;Final

Appreciate any direction on this issue.

Thanks

that is the expected behavior, any connected sessions to node A or backup node A will keep trying to connect to those nodes, failover only happens between live/backup pairs.

Hi, I dont hve answer to your question, however I'm trying to achieve similar config, where a cluster of hornetq servers runs outside jboss container hosting just clustered queues, and a cluster jboss servers (backend cluster) is used to run MDB and another cluster of jboss servers is (frontend cluster) takes input from user and puts it on the queue. My question is related to JNDI config, each cluster (backend, frontend) should have its own JNDI config and some how pointing to hornetq clustered queue and connections, or, hornetq cluster should run jndi server. We would like Jboss to host jndi and point to hornetq cluster and no jndi server running in hornetq cluster. Please comment and/or suggest. Also if there are any example configurations available.

Thanks

I recommend your start your own thread, and try to be more specific with your question (include concrete examples if possible).

I am not sure I understand correct but attached the sample config/code I am using.

I was trying using the external resource-adapter but JBoss support team suggested to use the embedded resource-adapter (hornetq-ra).
