Thanks Steve, good point. In this standard Oracle RAC configuration the SCAN listener effectively plays the role of load balancer. Active MQ connects to the database through port 1610 and then is directed to node a or node b on port 1521.
I’ve found an Oracle DocID: How To Configure Server Side Transparent Application Failover (Doc ID 460982.1) with which I going to experiment. This as opposed client-side where somehow modifying Active MQ to include the OCI (Oracle Call Interface) code to perform the node switch. It looks like it will depend on how the Active MQ is querying the ACTIVEMQ_LOCK table and how often if Oracle will seamlessly redirect to the surviving node. Thanks for comments and suggestions, please keep them coming. I’ll post progress.
