[rabbitmq-discuss] Shovels not reconnecting with RabbitMQ 3.1.0

Thu May 2 15:43:04 BST 2013

Hi, just did some testing here. If I leave reconnect_delay unset, the shovel does not reconnect. Setting reconnect_delay to 0 seems to have the same effect (as expected). Setting reconnect_delay to a nonzero value makes the shovel reconnect immediately (tested with 10 and 1000). I tested this by closing the shovel's connection from the management interface on the cluster.

I've just checked and the default reconnect delay is still set to 5 seconds.

Hmn. If the shovels were clustered then it's possible a named shovel's configuration from one node could override the other (due to the way in which individual shovel workers fail-over in 3.1), but you say they're not clustered. Hmn. I'll have a quick go at reproducing this, but AFAICT there's no reason they shouldn't be attempting to reconnect. Unless the reconnect_delay is being overridden somewhere?

Cheers,
