Hi Eric
Today I stumbled over an issue with a misconfiguration in synapse.xml.
A loadbalancing group did not contain any endpoints.
.....
Two solutions would be acceptable to me:
a) The ESB does not start if a load balancing group is empty and output
the name(s) of the empty laodbalance groups. This approach might cause
compatibility issues with existing (mis)configurations. Also unused
configuration parts would cause Synapse not to start. On the other hand
this is "fail fast" and if we would have a schema, this configuration
would probably be disallowed.
b) At runtime the problem is detected and a fault is sent to the client
indicating that no member of a loadbalancing group are available.
Do you have other solutions in mind? What solution do you prefer?
I would certainly prefer option "A".. it would be easier to implement
and also better in dealing with the issue than at runtime.
cheers
