I was using HorentQ in clustered mode in JBoss AS 7.1; However I wanted to see if I can cluster specific topics and queues only. I understood from this link that it is possible by configuring the address. However I am not able to find the address which works. Here is a snapshot of the doamin.xml; Where clustering is NOT working
<cluster-connections>
<cluster-connection name="my-cluster">
<address>mro</address>
<connector-ref>netty</connector-ref>
<discovery-group-ref discovery-group-name="dg-group1"/>
</cluster-connection>
</cluster-connections>
Here is how the Queue and topic is defined. Changing the address to jms makes everything clustered and it is working, but that is not what I want
<jms-queue name="MROQueue">
<entry name="mro/MROQueue"/>
<entry name="java:jboss/exported/mro/MROQueue"/>
</jms-queue>
<jms-topic name="MROTopic">
<entry name="mro/MROTopic"/>
<entry name="java:jboss/exported/mro/MROTopic"/>
</jms-topic>
I tried various wildcards in the address but nothing was working. So in the end got this working
<cluster-connections>
<cluster-connection name="my-cluster">
<address>jms.queue.cluster</address>
<connector-ref>netty</connector-ref>
<discovery-group-ref discovery-group-name="dg-group1"/>
</cluster-connection>
</cluster-connections>
and queues
<jms-queue name="cluster.MROQueue">
<entry name="cluster.MROQueue"/>
<entry name="java:jboss/exported/cluster.MROQueue"/>
</jms-queue>
<jms-topic name="cluster.MROTopic">
<entry name="cluster.MROTopic"/>
<entry name="java:jboss/exported/cluster.MROTopic"/>
</jms-topic>
The above made both my Queues and Topics to be clustered. To test I changed to
<cluster-connections>
<cluster-connection name="my-cluster">
<address>jms.queue.cluster3</address>
<connector-ref>netty</connector-ref>
<discovery-group-ref discovery-group-name="dg-group1"/>
</cluster-connection>
</cluster-connections>
And changed queues to
<jms-queue name="cluster2.MROQueue">
<entry name="cluster2.MROQueue"/>
<entry name="java:jboss/exported/cluster2.MROQueue"/>
</jms-queue>
and it did not cluster; So that seems to be the way at least in this version for specific clustering
