To configure agent relays for failover, you specify two or more target servers for the
agent relay to use. If one of the servers fails, the agent relay switches to another server from
the list.
You must upgrade an agent relay to version 6.1.1.1 or later to configure it for
failover.
If you did not configure the agent relay for failover when you installed the relay, you can
also configure it for failover by modifying its properties.
- Open the
/agent-relay-install/conf/agentrelay.properties file.
-
In the
agentrelay.jms_proxy.servers parameter, provide a list of
server locations.
This list can include only servers, not other agent relays.
The configuration syntax is
server_IP_or_hostname\:JMS_port. Separate each entry
with a comma.
An example parameter that specifies two servers might resemble the following code:
agentrelay.jms_proxy.servers=newyork-server.example.com\:7918,losangeles-server.example.com\:7918.
