Artemis 2.9.0. (as well as 2.6.3 where I first was testing). I've got a working master / backup cluster, using static connectors. My server broker.xml has these components:
<connectors> <connector name="master-connector">tcp://activemqmaster:61616</connector> <connector name="slave-connector">tcp://activemqbackup:61616</connector> </connectors> <acceptors> <acceptor name="netty-acceptor">tcp://0.0.0.0:61616?tcpSendBufferSize=1048576;tcpReceiveBufferSize=1048576;protocols=CORE;useEpoll=true</acceptor> </acceptors> <ha-policy> <shared-store> <master> <failover-on-shutdown>true</failover-on-shutdown> </master> </shared-store> </ha-policy> <cluster-connections> <cluster-connection name="${bc.core.deploy.env}-cluster"> <connector-ref>master-connector</connector-ref> <static-connectors allow-direct-connections-only="true"> <connector-ref>slave-connector</connector-ref> </static-connectors> </cluster-connection> </cluster-connections> I want to adjust the behaviour when (for example) master starts up and the backup server isn't present. With the above, the master console just shows exception after exception like this: 2019-07-11 15:38:45,750 ERROR [org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.client] AMQ214016: Failed to create netty connection: java.net.UnknownHostException: activemqbackup activemqmaster_1 | at java.net.InetAddress.getAllByName0(InetAddress.java:1281) [rt.jar:1.8.0_212] every half second. (Well - twice every half second for some reason - there seem to be two threads or something trying to connect to the backup server). When I try to add options into the <cluster-connection>, some of them work, some of them don't seem to work, and some cause compile errors when Artemis starts up. For example, adding: <retry-interval>2</retry-interval> setting works - the retries go from every half second to every 2 seconds (although there seem to be two threads trying to connect). Adding: <retry-interval-multiplier>1.5</retry-interval-multiplier> doesn't seem to make any difference - the exceptions still come every 2 seconds. Adding a <initial-connect-attempts>3</initial-connect-attempts> to try to limit the initial number of connection attempts yields an error activemqmaster_1 | Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'initial-connect-attempts'.
