And, adding  my question...

When Master Broker goes down, is there any way that administrators get a 
notification(e-mail etc...) that it went down.

Should Only a "manual" restart to bring it up again?


Thank You,
Nag.

The slave broker won't accept connections until it becomes the master so the 
client won't connect to a slave.  It will just keep moving through the list of 
URI's attempting to connect until a broker becomes available.
