[rabbitmq-discuss] A question on federation status reporting

Mon Jan 13 18:08:38 GMT 2014

We have a bi-directional federation setup between three nodes like this on
RabbitMQ 3.2.2:

mq_integ/sea <===> mq_integ <===> mq_integ/tuk

All three nodes use a "skytap" exchange and the mq_integ/sea
and mq_integ/tuk are *not* federated with each other

Here's what's interesting. In the *mq_integ/sea* broker, the "Federation
Upstreams" page is what I'd expect it to be, that is, a connection to
mq_integ:
NameURIExpiryMessage TTLMax HopsPrefetch CountReconnect DelayAck modeTrust
User-IDupstream-integ<http://tuk5r1mq1.mgt.integ.skytap.com:15672/#/federation-upstreams/%2F/upstream-integ>
amqp://foo:bar@sea_m2:5672??

However, in the "Federation Status" page for *mq_integ/sea* looks strange
(see below). In particular, I see four entries, whereas in RabbitMQ 3.0.2 I
only saw one line.

In addition, the third entry references the mq_integ/tuk broker, even
though I haven't configured mq_integ/sea to know anything about
mq_integ/tuk:

Is this what you'd expect to see? Am I not understanding something?

Thanks,

Matt
