Messages exist one one and only one active broker at a time. If that happens to be the one you shut down, that message doesn't exist until you start the broker again.
Your question about why you aren't seeing the message on both brokers at once sounds like you're still expecting clustering behavior, which does not exist in ActiveMQ 5.x. Do you even have two consumers? Your second message only described a producer and a consumer...
