Ok. > 1) Is clustering required to do this (on RabbitMQ it is, but RabbitMQ > appears > to not support message grouping yet)?

The new HA module in Qpid requires integration with a resource manager; on Linux this is rgmanager (corosync is involved to manage the cluster itself, but it's not directly involved with Qpid). Currently there is no integration with a resource manager on Windows clusters. It's probably not a gigantic amount of work to get it there, but it's work that is needed. -Steve Huston --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@qpid.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@qpid.apache.org
