I have the output of "rabbitmqctl report" from the 4 nodes in question (two per cluster) - were there specific items that you wanted to look at (I'd rather not share the entire output for security reasons)? I can see that for the vhosts in question it is listing the federate-me policy (not sure if that is what you were looking for).<br>

Thank you for your reply.<br>
<br>
1) I was trying to obfuscate my actual naming conventions - but they are<br>
named in a similar manner. The general structure though is that in<br>
cluster01 I have an exchange named something like "cluster01.topic" and<br>
in the pattern field I put " ^cluster01\. " (basically everything in<br>
preceeding the "." in the exchange name). Can you confirm that this<br>
would be the correct pattern?<br>

In the quotation marks you have leading and trailing spaces which would obviously stop the match from working. But other than that it looks fine.<div class="im"><br>

2) I do not see "federate-me" show up in the management UI exchange list<br>
- but I see the policy in the Admin section. Would it show up as a<br>
discrete exchange itself?<br>

Some federation-related infrastructure (including exchanges) would show up once federation starts, but if you don't see "federate-me" in the policy column for any exchange then the policy is not matching and nothing will happen.<br>
<br>
If you can post the results of "rabbitmqctl report" then I can look at why the policy pattern is not matching.<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><br>
