Hi,
The initialReconnectDelay is the delay for the first attempt only. Is it
reconnecting immediately on the first try?
Use the maxReconnectDelay to specify the delay for succeeding attempts.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I do see retry attempts from FailoverTransport in the
stacktrace now, however the initialReconnectDelay param doesn't seem to have
effect.
I applied the following producer URL to broker and it seems that the 2
retries are attempted immediately.
failover://(tcp://localhost:61616)?maxReconnectAttempts=2&initialReconnectDelay=10000
Is this the correct way to set initial reconnect delay?
Thanks,
Qian

Hi,
We are using Activemq version 4.1.1, tcp transport and we'd like the
producer to retry at least once in case of connection timeout to a
broker.
The brokers are configured behind a load balancer.
Does Activemq support retries on the producer end?
Yes -using failover transport
I am aware of the FailoverTransport and knows it provides configuration
for
maxReconnectAttempts, initialReconnectDelay, etc, but am not sure if this
is
the best approach or if it is applicable for our situation since the load
balancer is the only one point of entry to talk to a broker in our case.
It is. You can define how many times you want the client to attempt to
reconnect - irrespective of how host names are mapped to physical real
IP addresses.
e.g. use failover with a single logical hostname/IP adress.
Is it correct to configure a producer connection URL to the load balancer
something like this:
failover://(tcp://host:61616)?maxReconnectAttempts=1&initialReconnectDelay=200
By the way, I tried the above URL and id doesn't seem to work.
Does increasing the maxReconnectAttempts help?
