To run the example, simply type mvn verify from this directory,
or mvn -PnoServer verify if you want to start and create the server manually.
This example demonstrates two servers coupled as a live-backup pair for high availability (HA), and a client connection failing over from live to backup when the live server is crashed.
Failover behavior differs whether the JMS session is transacted or not.
When a non-transacted JMS session is used, once and only once delivery is not guaranteed and it is possible some messages will be lost or delivered twice, depending when the failover to the backup server occurs.
It is up to the client to deal with such cases. To ensure once and only once delivery, the client must use transacted JMS sessions (as shown in the example for failover with transactions).
