I have a JMS service targeted at a migratable target (using an Auto-Migrate Exactly-Once policy) in a cluster which consists of 2 managed servers, at any point of time the service is hosted at one of them and the consumer (which is targeted at the cluster) is supposed to receive messages seamlessly no matter where the service is hosted.
When I manually switch the host of the migratable target (clicking migrate), without turning the hosting managed server off, the consumer fails to receive messages sent to the queues, unless I turn off the previous hosting managed server forcing the consumer to the new host.
I can rule out sender problems, I can see the messages in the queue right after them being sent.
I'll be grateful if anyone can advice on how to configure either the consumer or the migratable service to work seamlessly when migration happens.
I think that may just be a misunderstanding of how migration works. The docs state Auto-Migrate Exactly-Once:
indicates that if at least one Managed Server in the candidate list
is running, then the JMS service will be active somewhere in the
cluster if servers should fail or are shut down (either gracefully or
forcibly). For example, a migratable target hosting a path service
should use this option so if its hosting server fails or is shut down,
the path service will automatically migrate to another server and so
will always be active in the cluster. Note that this value can lead to
target grouping. For example, if you have five exactly-once migratable
targets and only one server member is started, then all five
migratable targets will be activated on that server member.
The docs also state:
Manual Service Migration—the manual migration of pinned JTA and
JMS-related services (for example, JMS server, SAF agent, path
service, and custom store) after the host server instance fails
Your server/service has neither failed or shut down, you are forcing it to migrate with a healthy host still running, so it has not met the criteria for migration.
See more here as well.
I have some experience that sounds reminiscent of what you're looking at. There was some WLS-specific capability around recognizing reconfiguration in JMS destinations as part of their clustered server design.
In one case I had to call a WLS-specific method: weblogic.jms.extensions.WLSession.setExceptionListener(). This was on their implementation of the JMS Session interface. This is analogous to the standard JMS Connection.setExceptionListener().
With this WLS-specific capability, the WLSession.setExceptionListener() callback would occur at a point where the consuming client should tear down and re-establish the connection / session / consumer in reaction to a reconfiguration (migration) that had happened.

The Consumer proxy is not picking up messages from queue. We have redeployed service and restarted servers. But it did not help. I am attaching logs in here.
<01-Mar-2019 10:39:53 o'clock GMT>
<01-Mar-2019 10:39:53 o'clock GMT>
According to Oracle support document 1573359.1:
CAUSE
The service has been re-deployed/changed while there were messaging being processed. Review Doc ID 1571958.1 "OSB SBConsole Activation - Limitations for configuration or deployment changes in production" for other reasons that this error can occur.
SOLUTION
Stop consumption on the jms queue, delete and re-deploy service.
Log in to Weblogic Console
Expand services -> Messaging -> JMS Modules -> Select the Queue your service is interacting with.
Select the Control tab
For both production and consumption, select pause.
Wait a short while (5 minutes) and restart the queue
Re-deploy your Proxy Services
If message still persist please check config.xml and make sure that there is a correct number of applications with name starting with "ALSB". The correct number depends on the kind of services you have deployed. JMS request-response, JMS plain request, JMS topic etc...
The easiest way to make sure that config.xml is correct is to do the following:
Delete all the JMS proxies from OSB configuration
Open WLS console go to "Deployments" and make sure that there are no application "_ALSB_xyz" deployed. If they are present delete them.
Re-deploy JMS proxies
Alternately, check Note 1382976.1 to locate the related deployments. Delete any application deployments starting with "ALSB" which are not related to any actively deployed JMS proxy service.
I have a curiosity and I was searching for it without any result. In GlassFish documentation it is written:
If the GlassFish Server instance on which the application client is
deployed participates in a cluster, the GlassFish Server finds all
currently active IIOP endpoints in the cluster automatically. However,
a client should have at least two endpoints specified for
bootstrapping purposes, in case one of the endpoints has failed.
but I am asking myself how this list is created.
I've done some tests with a stand-alone client that is executed in a JVM and does some RMI calls on an application that is deployed in a GlassFish cluster and I can see from the logs that the IIOP endpoints list is completed automatically and it is set as com.sun.appserv.iiop.endpoints system property but if I stop a server instance or start another during the execution of the client the list remains the one that was created when the JVM was started.
GlassFish clustering is managed by the GMS (Group Management Service) which usually uses UDP Multicast, but can use TCP where that is not available.
See section 4 "Administering GlassFish Server Clusters" in the HA Administration Guide (PDF)
The Group Management Service (GMS) enables instances to participate in a cluster by
detecting changes in cluster membership and notifying instances of the changes. To
ensure that GMS can detect changes in cluster membership, a cluster's GMS settings
must be configured correctly.
I have a two activeMQ(5.6.0) brokers. They use a shared kaha database so only one can be 'running' at once.
I have a (asp.net) webservice that puts a message on a queue, locally if I start and stop the brokers the webservice fails over correctly
when I test with the brokers on seperate machines it sometimes works but often I get "socketException: Connection reset" errors and the message is lost.
The connection string I am using is below. Note that I am aware NMS does not understand the priority backup command but I have left it there for the future.
failover:(tcp://MACHINE1:61616,tcp://MACHINE2:62616)?transport.initialReconnectDelay=1000&transport.timeout=10000&randomize=false&priorityBackup=true
How can I make my fail over between brokers fool proof?
The shared Kaha database was on a simple share. Currently activeMQ (or windows) cannot reliably get or release the lock in this configuration. The shared database must sit on a 'real' SAN so that both instances of the queue software see the database as being on a local filestore not a network location.
See this page for more info http://activemq.apache.org/shared-file-system-master-slave.html
I have spent days reading MSDN, forums and article about this, and cannot find a solution to my problem.
As a PoC, I need to consume a queue from more than one machine since I need fault tolerance on the consumers side. Performance is not an issue since less than 100 messages a day should by exchanged.
I have coded two trivial console application , one as client, the other one as server. Using Framework 4.0 (tested also on 3.5). Messages are using transactions.
Everything runs fines on a single machine (Windows 7), even when running multiple consumers application instance.
Now I have a 2012 and a 2008 R2 virtual test servers running in the same domain (but don't want to use AD integration anyway). I am using IP address or "." in endpoint address attribute to prevent from DNS / AD resolution side effects.
Everything works fine IF the the queue is hosted by the consumer and the producer is submitting messages on the remote private queue. This is also true if I exchange the consumer / producer role of the 2012 and 2008 server.
But I have NEVER been able to make this run, using WCF, when the consumer is reading from remote queue and the producer is submitting messages localy. Submition never fails, my problem is on the consumer side.
My wish is to make this run using netMsmqBinding, but I also tried using msmqIntegrationBinding. For each test, I adapted code and configuration, then confirmed this was running ok when the consumer was consuming from the local queue.
The last test I have done is using WCF (msmqIntegrationBinding) only on the producer (local queue) and System.Messaging.MessageQueue on the consumer (remote queue) : It works fine ! => My goal is to make the same using WCF and netMsmqBinding on both sides.
In my point of view, I have proved this problem is a WCF issue, not an MSMQ one. This has nothing to do with security, authentication, firewall, transport, protocol, MSMQ version etc.
Errors info using MS Service Trace Viewer :
Using msmqIntegrationBinding when receiving the message (openning queue was ok) : An error occurred while receiving a message from the queue: The transaction specified cannot be imported. (-1072824242, 0xc00e004e). Ensure that MSMQ is installed and running. Make sure the queue is available to receive from.
Using netMsmqBinding, on opening the queue : An error occurred when converting the '172.22.1.9\private$\Test' queue path name to the format name: The queue path name specified is invalid. (-1072824300, 0xc00e0014). All operations on the queued channel failed. Ensure that the queue address is valid. MSMQ must be installed with Active Directory integration enabled and access to it is available.
If someone can help to find why my configuration cannot be handled by WCF, a much elegant and configurable way than Messaging, I would greatly appreciate !
Thank you.
You may need to post you consumer code and config to give more of an idea but it could be the construction of the queue name - e.g.
FormatName:DIRECT=TCP:192.168.0.2\SomeQueue
There are several different ways to connect to a queue and it changes when you are remote or local as well.
I have found this article in the past to help:

I have a WebLogic cluster on which I've deployed numerous topics and applications that use them. My applications uniformly show themselves in a Warning status. Looking at Monitoring on the deployment, I see the MDB application connects to Server #1, but on server #2 it shows this:
MDB application appName is NOT connected to messaging system.
My JMS Server is targetted to a migratable target, which is in turn targetted to the #1 server and has a cluster identified. And messages sent to either server all flow as expected. I just don't know why these deployments show in a Warning state.
WebLogic 11g
This can be avoided by using the parameter below
<start-mdbs-with-application>false</start-mdbs-with-application>
In the weblogic-application.xml, Setting start-mdbs-with-application to false forces MDBs to defer starting until after the server instance opens its listen port, near the end of the server boot up process.
If you want to perform startup tasks after JMS and JDBC services are available, but before applications and modules have been activated, you can select the Run Before Application Deployments option in the Administration Console (or set the StartupClassMBean’s LoadBeforeAppActivation attribute to “true”).

I don't like unanswered questions, so I'm going to answer this one.
The problem is resolved, though I was not involved in its resolution. At present the problem only exists for the length of time it takes the JMS subsystem to fully initialize. During that period (with many queues, it can take a while) the JNDI system throws errors and the apps are truly in warning state. Once the JMS is fully initialized, everything goes green.
My belief is that someone corrected something in the JMS Server / Cluster config. I'll never know what it was.
