Hi Yeah you should use transacted ack mode with JMS on the local AMQ, then it will only ack the message if it could be send to the remote broker. And if Camel crashes you wont lose messages as the message is still stored in the local AMQ persistent store.
AMQ has redelivery built-in, so you can configure how many times to retry etc. http://activemq.apache.org/redelivery-policy.html Just mind that with transacted=true, you should set cacheLevelName=CACHE_CONSUMER to have higher performance. Some details at: http://camel.apache.org/jms and http://camel.apache.org/activemq ActiveMQ do have a JMS bridge but using Camel has proven to have higher flexibility and can be easier to configure with various JMS clients as well http://activemq.apache.org/jms-to-jms-bridge.html On Tue, Oct 15, 2013 at 11:31 PM, brenuart <bertrand.renu...@itma.lu> wrote: > Hello, > > I need to setup a jms bridge to connect a local queue to a remote queue with > a WAN network connection in between.
