Re: Selectors with virtual topics in broker networks

2017-12-07 Thread Devlin
Hi Tim, Different hosts. We used conditionalNetworkBridgeFilterFactory in the past, but removed it months ago thinking it was causing a different issue, turned out to be false, so we are considering enabling it again. What I don't like about this filter is that it only kicks in on broker startup

Selectors with virtual topics in broker networks

2017-12-04 Thread Devlin
5.11.0 Trying to validate if our current setup is configured properly for virtual topics with message selectors in a broker network. Based on preliminary observations, virtual topics appear to works as expected; producers send on topics, consumers receive on queues, regardless of where they

Re: Virtual destination subscription durability and message recovery

2017-11-15 Thread Devlin
Thanks, gtully! Is our implementation for #1 correct? The assumption is by disabling removal of inactive virtual destination queues, we effectively make them static queues the moment they are created. So, assuming a producer publishes to "topic://virtualTopics.mytopic" on BrokerA, if BrokerB has

Virtual destination subscription durability and message recovery

2017-11-13 Thread Devlin
We've performed extensive testing with virtual destinations on 5.11 network of brokers, it works well with two exceptions: #1 - subscription durability when consumers go offline, #2 - producers publishing before consumers register their subscription We manage to get around #1 by configuring

Re: Using failover with updateClusterClients, which one has precedence?

2017-11-02 Thread Devlin
Ok, that won't help because our network is full graph. From the client's perspective, is there a way to see the most updated failover connection list? We're using these methods, but it always shows brokers in what appears to be alphabetic order. BrokerInfo bInfo = connection.getBrokerInfo();

Re: brokerName and brokerId in network of brokers

2017-10-26 Thread Devlin
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:

Thank you, Tim. We finally figured out the issue; NFS "noac" option was killing performance. (vers=4.0,rsize=65536,wsize=65536,namlen=255,hard,noac,proto=tcp,port=0,timeo=20,retrans=2) We joked about it afterwards, no "air conditioning" after a long summer can kill anything :-) Thanks again

Should master/slave brokers share tmp_storage directory?

It's my understanding with kahadb the store folder location is shared between master and slave brokers using the following config: Why is it that temp storage does not use the same, shared location? By default, the location for tmp_storage appears to be local to the broker

Is BrokerFilter a "blocking" interceptor?

2016-12-12 Thread Devlin
We're experimenting with BrokerFilter to capture detailed info of producer, consumer, message headers, etc., for logging and analysis, and want to be very careful to avoid delaying or blocking the broker. If a broker interceptor, for whatever reason, got stuck, would that block a broker thread

Re: Virtual topics, custom prefix limitations

2016-10-15 Thread Devlin
We may need to support standard subscribers to the virtual topic, but it's not a drop-dead requirement. Having said that, we verified the broker network is working for standard queues/topics using the above configuration, but not virtual topics, even after removing . VT's are only working when

Re: Virtual topics, custom prefix limitations

2016-10-15 Thread Devlin
Ok, just to be clear, we define the virtual topic statically (the one used by the producer), not the individual consumer queues. I hope it's the former because client queues for virtual topics are named using "app-version" convention for grouping related consumers; we can't define those names
