Hi Andreas, If I understand correctly you're wanting to create a single cluster, with active-active style availability, with some satellite brokers?
To set up an active/active style HA cluster in Artemis, you can use using co-located pairs[1]. Essentially what this is doing is creating a live and a backup broker in a single JVM. Where the backup here is acting as the backup for node on a separate machine. You can then add satellite brokers that get a view into the HA cluster. You can control exactly which addresses are shared between your HA cluster and individual brokers by setting the address <address> on the cluster connection[2].
