MQSeries.net :: View topic - Cloned Broker(s) not sharing publications

smeunier · Posted: Thu Oct 26, 2006 11:54 am Post subject:

I have two brokers running on two servers. They are setup in a cloned broker configuration(AIX) and are clustered together with other queue managers(4 in all).

I'm in the midst of testing the cloned environment and have run into a situation where published messages are not being received, except by subscribers on the same broker. Subscribers on the other broker, are not receiving messages.

Setup: Publisher publishes to Broker A
Subscriber on Broker A receives messages
Subscriber on Broker B is not receiving messages

The receiver queue is a local queue, defined on each instance.

I was expecting publications to be shared across the clones. In a collective, publications would be shared by the broker. The book states that publications in a cloned environment are sent to the subscribers rather than to the broker. I'm not sure the implications of thast statement.

My clients are JMS and the publications are via a message flow publication node. Is this a client issue or a broker issue? The net is, I looking to receive subscriptions in both domains and they are only arriving at one domain(the published one). The toolkit shows subscriptions on both domians.

Any ideas?
