             Summary: Failover configuration establishes more and more 
connections to inactive ActiveMQ instance
                 Key: AMQ-4618
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-4618
             Project: ActiveMQ
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 5.6.0
            Reporter: Roberto Mier


We have a big problem in a production environment usign ActiveMQ 5.6.0:
We have two ActiveMQ instances started up and a consumer application reading 
from them. The configuration is set to failover so that consumer application 
reads JMS messages from first instance and changes to second instance only if 
first one is not reachable.
After some days, we have seen that there is only one connection established to 
first ActiveMQ instance, but there are more than 80 established connections to 
second instance (the backup one). Every day more and more connections are 
created to backup instance until "java.net.SocketException: Too many open 
files" exception is thrown in consumer application because the number of file 
descriptors is huge


Between ActiveMQ instances and consumer application there is a F5 with a 
timeout of 300 seconds. Could it be responsible of this bad behaviour?. I think 
that when F5 detects inactivity in a connection for 300 seconds, it will close 
it, but ActiveMQ will open a new one, so there should be only one connection at 
the same time, not growing the number of them, isn't it?


The failover configuration in client is set to:

jms.broker.url=failover:(tcp://activeMQHost1:61616,tcp://activeMQHost2:61616)?randomize=false&timeout=3000&priorityBackup=true

Is there any additional parameter to set to solve this problem?


Thanks in advance
