No, master/slave brokers, or any broker, participating in a network, should
never share names or IDs; they should be unique to each broker. I usually
make the brokerID and name the same for a single broker.
I asked a similar question last year, then answered it myself, hope this
helps:
Let's say I set up a network of brokers, where each "node" is a master/slave
pair sharing a NFS file system. From my research I should set the brokerName
differently on master and slave, but I should set the brokerId the same on
master and slave am I correct?
