Thanks Adrian.. We already went through these and did manage to set up a network..the problem was 1) the other broker was used only when there was a failover and not as a load balancer 2) the other broker needed its own set of consumers.
What we wanted to try out was if the 2 brokers would load balance but there would be only 1 consumer.. thanks Pat Adrian Co wrote: > > Wonder if these is what you are looking for: > http://www.activemq.org/site/networks-of-brokers.html > http://www.activemq.org/site/failover-transport-reference.html > http://www.activemq.org/site/masterslave.html > > apinke wrote: >> We are trying to achieve load balancing with single producer and single >> consumer instance and multiple Brokers. >> >> What we are trying to achive is have only one Consumer connect to one >> broker >> and listen to a queue but for load-balancing reasons ( or if the broker >> goes >> down ) , it should automatically connect to the next broker and consume >> the >> messages. >> Is this setup possible ? >> >> To be more clear, can we create a "virtual" broker / queue that a >> producer >> and consumer can use , but it is actually composed of a network of >> brokers , >> such that >> they can share the load or provide failover capabilities. >> Of course , this is not load balancing the application but only the >> brokers... >> >> thanks >> Pat >> >> >> > > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Load-Balancing-with-Single-Consumer-tf2252613.html#a6259485 Sent from the ActiveMQ - User forum at Nabble.com.
