Hello, I am working on an application that is using ActiveMQ 5.16.3 and I am tasked with implementing a feature that should pause the whole message process.
In the application we have producers and message driven beans as consumers. The goal is to stop the consumption of messages as well as the acceptance of new messages in the queues. At first, I was hoping that pausing a queue would do exactly that, but I quickly learned that that only stops messages from being delivered. And now I need an option to also prevent queues from accepting new messages. What I am trying to achieve in the end is somewhat like this existing thread https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r615e1b6c2cdf6341ac69935f24190a865147b32e3b95dfb35c86383e%40%3Cusers.activemq.apache.org%3E But the proposed solution with multiple brokers and a failover is not applicable/feasible in our use case. So far, the only other option I found is to stop the complete broker by stopping the windows service. But this obviously creates new challenges since we can no longer get information on the size of the queues for example. Is there another way to stop the consumption and creation of messages? Ideally with an instant exception when a sent is attempted on a queue that is stopped? Any help/hints are greatly appreciated Regards Hannes [cid:tangro-logo-cyan-rgb_cc8f5a9b-fee1-495e-878a-457c4b170988.png] Hannes Bauer Entwicklung h...@tangro.de<mailto:h...@tangro.de> Fon +49 6221 1333 666 www.tangro.de<http://www.tangro.de> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/3731516/> [cid:linkedin_cyan_Flche_c8d1d8e0-819d-446d-a928-19e3f92da84a.png] <https://www.linkedin.com/company/3731516/> [cid:xing_cyan_Flche(1)_3aa617c4-0f52-4b4f-9e00-9fac40d37193.png] <https://www.xing.com/companies/tangrosoftwarecomponentsgmbh> [cid:youtube_cyan_Flche_bbde269b-c7da-48df-b3a9-3ec7dfe09432.png] <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsxrvLKxYpQ-KYK8uGQ8tVQ> [cid:Twitter-Icon_cyan-Flche_14719373-0a07-425c-88a4-31303fb01996.png] <https://twitter.com/tangro_software> [cid:tangro_newsletter_icon_rgb57-176-201_139x42_7758a315-d1ec-4829-adce-36eea7130bda.gif] <https://www.tangro.de/newsletter/> <https://www.tangro.de/newsletter/> tangro software components gmbh, Speyerer Stra?e 4, 69115 Heidelberg Gesch?ftsf?hrer: Andreas Schumann, Registergericht: Mannheim, HRB 336064 (Sitz: Heidelberg)
