MSMQ Resilience
- by Paddy Carroll
I have a requirement for a resilient MSMQ setup on VMWare ESX5.
I am aware that we cannot allow the queue storage to be shared as it must be installed on physical disk mount, e.g. it cant be an CIFS or DFS Share.
The following constraints apply:
We don't use windows clustering
We dont't rely on hot standbys
Is there a way I can replicate the queue storage to another platform so that it can assume MSMQ duties on failure of the primary platforms using any method including queue forwarding?
