Hi This has been debated before about cluster Camel. Maybe you can search the forum and find some of these talks.
You can use a route policy to control which route is master / slave etc http://camel.apache.org/routepolicy And use some different technologies for that such as quartz, hazelcast, zookeeper, et all. Or write some custom code etc. And in Fuse ESB Enterprise there is a Camel master component out of the box that does this for you. Though an alternative is to use a shared idempotent repository that the ftp consumer can use. That is a bit special as the file/ftp consumer has this functionality built-in. Not all Camel consumers offers that. And hence why a general solution with the route policy can be used.
