Hiram Chirino commented on AMQ-1660:
------------------------------------

Perhaps it would be better if we try to work around this problem with postgress 
so that you don't have to restart your broker. (and if you did I would 
recommend you just use a cron job to do that).

Wonder if we use 2 lock statements in 2 different transactions.  After some 
time we commit transaction 1 and get the lock again.  Then we do the same with 
the 2nd transaction.  and keep alternating.  This should avoid the old 
transaction problem.

We just need to deal with new brokers coming online and getting 1 of the locks 
while the master is re-newing the lock.  So a salve need to release that lock 
fast if it can't get the 2nd lock.

Make sense?

>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Broker
>    Affects Versions: 4.1.1, 5.0.0
>         Environment: all platforms that support a running standalone broker

> I am using a JDBC Master/Slave topology. I'm using Postgres as the db and 
> noticed that due to the long running transaction of the master holding the 
> lock on the activemq_lock table my vacuums are not cleaning as many dead 
> tuples as they could. If you are familiar with postgres then you know that 
> vacuum can only recover dead tuples up to the point of the oldest 
> transaction. My activemq database is on the same db server as my production 
> db.
> So I would like to regularly failover the master to the slave to keep the 
> lock transaction timestamp moving forward in time.
> Is there any facility built into activemq that would allow me to schedule a 
> restart of a broker? For example, it would be nice to have the ability to 
> specify in the broker.xml a TTL value that would mean run for this much time 
> then restart yourself (or shutdown).
