<div dir="ltr">I was referring to the rabbit priorities, in my scenario i have a process consumer.exe that connects to rabbit and consumes messages from a queue, suppose i launch this process 5 times, i end up with 5 consumers for the queue, if i specify the same priority for all of them they will end up receiving the messages in round robin, because that's the way rabbit distributes them.<div>
What i'm looking for is a way to tell rabbit to forget about round robin and just send the message to the first process in it's list that's available for processing</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br>

These are not OS priorities - the priority is set by an argument to the basic.consume method. Multiple consumers within the same OS process can have different priorities.<br>

If i understood correctly multiple consumers with the same high priority<br>
will receive the messages in round-robin.<br>
This is easier if the processes were different binaries, they are in<br>
fact the same binary, to use priorities i would have to attribute higher<br>
priorities as i launch the multiple instances of the binary, is there<br>
some other way?<br>

Hi all,<br>
Supose you have 3 processes consuming messages from a queue, i<br>
guess by<br>
default the messages will be distributed to the consumers in a<br>
round-robin fashion (p1, p2, p3, p1, etc). Is there a way to<br>
change this<br>
distribution policy so that always the first free process<br>
handles the<br>
message? For example if p1 is always available then it would<br>
handle all<br>
the queued messages.<br>
thanks in advance<br>
<br>
