Ted Ross resolved DISPATCH-1337. -------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed > Fallback Destination for Unreachable Addresses > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: DISPATCH-1337 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-1337 > Project: Qpid Dispatch > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Router Node > Reporter: Ted Ross > Assignee: Ted Ross > Priority: Major > Fix For: 1.8.0 > > > This feature allows addresses to be configured such that an alternate > fallback destination can be used to receive messages that are not deliverable > to any normal consumers on the address. > Typically, this feature will be used to allow a message broker to store > messages that are not routable directly to consumers. When one or more > consumers are attached in the router network, messages shall be delivered > directly to the consumers. Where there are no reachable consumers, > deliveries shall then be diverted to any fallback links that are attached. > Once consumers re-connect to the network, messages shall again be delivered > directly. > When a consumer comes online after messages have been stored in a broker, it > shall receive the stored messages interleaved with new messages from > producers. No attempt shall be made by the router network to preserve the > original delivery order of the messages. > This feature can be configured by adding the attribute > {noformat} > enableFallback: yes > {noformat} > to an address configuration. This attribute tells the router that any address > matching the configuration shall support the fallback destination capability. > There are two ways to create a fallback link for an address: > Using auto-links: > An auto-link (or a pair of auto-links) can be configured to create a fallback > link for an address. For example, assume that there is a route-container > connector or listener for a broker called "alternate-broker". > {noformat} > address { > prefix: position_update > enableFallback: yes > } > autoLink { > address: position_update.338 > direction: in > connection: alternate-broker > fallback: yes > } > autoLink { > address: position_update.338 > direction: out > connection: alternate-broker > fallback: yes > } > {noformat} > The above configuration will use a queue on the broker called > "position_update.338" as the fallback destination for direct consumers. > Furthermore, since there are both _in_ and _out_ auto-links, the router(s) > shall send queued messages to newly attached direct consumers. > Using terminus capabilities: > As an alternative to using auto-links, the broker (or any other process) can > attach sending and receiving links to the address with terminus-capability > "qd.fallback". This will create the same behavior as the above example. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@qpid.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@qpid.apache.org
