Its now possible to also add the broker name to jmx tree avoiding clashes when multiple brokers are in a single vm. This is now the default but the old way can be used with some configuration
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-311
The old property-file based security manager shouldn't be used anymore. Instead
use the JAAS InVMLoginModule for in-vm tests, embedded use-cases, etc. and use
the other JAAS login modules for normal server use-cases.
Stopping the server should be able to handle exceptions thrown by
individual components. Before this patch the stop method would throw
any raised exception and exit. This can lead to partial shutdowns of
the server resulting in leaking threads. This patch catches any
component exceptions and logs an appropriate error message, allowing the
server to properly shutdown.
The failback process needs to be deterministic rather than relying on various
incarnations of Thread.sleep() at crucial points. Important aspects of this
change include:
1) Make the initial replication synchronization process block at the very
last step and wait for a response from the replica to ensure the replica has
as the necessary data. This is a critical piece of knowledge during the
failback process because it allows the soon-to-become-backup server to know
for sure when it can shut itself down and allow the soon-to-become-live
server to take over. Also, introduce a new configuration element called
"initial-replication-sync-timeout" to conrol how long this blocking will occur.
2) Set the state of the server as 'LIVE' only after the server is fully
started. This is necessary because once the soon-to-be-backup server shuts
down it needs to know that the soon-to-be-live server has started fully before
it restarts itself as the new backup. If the soon-to-be-backup server restarts
before the soon-to-be-live is fully started then it won't actually become a
backup server but instead will become a live server which will break the
failback process.
3) Wait to receive the announcement of a backup server before failing-back.
Netty 4.x uses pooled buffers. These buffers can run out of memory when
transferring large amounts of data over connection. This was causing an
OutOfMemory exception to be thrown on the CoreBridge when tranferring
large messages. Netty provides a callback handler to notify listeners
when a Connection is writable. This patch adds the ability to register
connection writable listeners to the Netty connection and registers the
relevant callback from the Bridge to avoid writing when the buffers are
full.
