Hi,
I have been given a requirement where i have two source systems which are in an active-active configuration. Each of these servers have MQ installed on them.

There is a Request-Response interface which is being implemented as a combination of two flows, one to handle the request message and the other one to handle response.

As both are in active-active configuration, data can come from any system. so i can create identical queues on both the systems which connect to same queue on broker server.

However, when i send the response, i must send it to the correct queue manager. i.e if request came from primary server, the response should go to primary server. Similarly if request came from secondary server, response goes to secondary.

Is there a way to achieve this?
Is using clustered queues & queue managers the way to resolve this?
Does reply to queue manager help in any way ?

Please advise.

Thanks,
Qadeer

Read up and lookup the examples for request-reply.
The doc is quite clear. What you need is a default path between service and requester. Enjoy

As has already been said here, MQ Cluster is the way to go.

Also note that you shouldn't use remote queue definitions in a cluster setup (your question denotes you're using them now), otherwise you won't get the required result.
