****************************************************
* Soak Test For Manual Reconnection of JMS Clients *
****************************************************
Running the Soak Tests
=======================
The default soak tests with start a ActiveMQ instance, 1 producer and 1 consumer. To run the default suite.
$mvn verify
Run The Server Standalone
==========================
If would like to run a number of servers or run the server on a different machine:
To run server using the default configuration (server0, using localhost):
$ mvn verify -Pserver
To run multiple servers, you can specify the server configuration directory using server.dir
system property (which defaults to server0). To run a 2nd server with a configuration stored in server1:
$ mvn verify -Pserver -Dserver.dir=server1
server1 should contain a copy of configuration equivilent to that found under the server0 director with different
settings.
To run a server with the same configuration but on a different host. Check out this source on the host machine and
change:
* activemq.remoting.netty.host property in activemq-configuration.xml
* bindAddress and rmiBindAddress properties in activemq-beans.xml
$ mvn verify -P server
Configure Server Dump
=====================
The server can "dump" info at regular interval. In activemq-configuration.xml, set
<server-dump-interval>10000</server-dump-interval>
to have infos every 10s:
**** Server Dump ****

free memory: 500,79 MiB
max memory: 1,95 GiB
total memory: 507,13 MiB
available memory: 99,68%
total paging memory: 0,00 B
# of thread: 19
# of conns: 0
********************
Run The Clients
===============
The clients can be run separate from the server using:
$ mvn verify -Premote
Parameters are specified in soak.properties.
The duration of the tests is configured by duration-in-minutes (defaults to 2 minutes, set to
-1 to run the test indefinitely).
To configure the soak properties different to the defaults for the clients, use the system property
To specify the JNDI server to connect to, use the system property jndi.address
$ mvn verify -Premote -Dsoak.props=<path to properties> -Pjndi.address=jnp:remote.host:1099
Every 1000th message, the clients will display their recent activity:
INFO: received 10000 messages in 5,71s (total: 55s)
At the end of the run, the sender and receiver will sum up their activity:
INFO: Received 223364 messages in 2,01 minutes
Kill The Server And Check Manual Reconnection
==============================================
You can kill the server (ctl+c or kill -9), the clients are configured to reconnect
indefinitely to the same single server (even in case of clean shutdown)
Once the server restarts, all the clients will resume their activities after reconnecting
to the server.
