[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBESB-262) Service dependency - recover capability. (i.e. Gateways -> Listener dependency)

Service dependency - recover capability. (i.e. Gateways -> Listener dependency) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBESB-262 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBESB-262 Project: JBoss ESB Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: ESB Core Affects Versions: 4.0 RC1 Reporter: Kurt Stam Assigned To: Mark Little Priority: Blocker Fix For: 4.0 Original Estimate: 1 day Remaining Estimate: 1 day When a service depends on a resource that can not be discovered at when the service is coming up, the service should log a warning, sleep for a bit and try again, indefinetly, until the missing resource is found. For example, all gateways depend on a listerner, if the gateway comes up before that listener the current implementation pretty much dies. We should simply put the gateway in a holding pattern. Similarly, if during execution the JMS provider (ftp server, or any other dependency) goes off line, we should not die, but simply log, sleep and retry. A nice to have would be that after an n number of retries we send a notification to a place where JBossON can pick it up and notify someone of a problem, This behavior should be easy to implement, and should take care of the current race condition we experience.
