<p style="margin: 1.2em 0px !important;">   The load balancer is advisable - definitely do not bake in node hostnames/IP in your code. Read the last section, “Connecting to Clusters from Clients” at the bottom of the <a href="https://www.rabbitmq.com/clustering.html">first article</a>.</p>
<p style="margin: 1.2em 0px !important;">   No, you do not need to set all queues to be mirrored. It all depends on your scenarios. Just bear in mind that mirrored queues have less performance than non-mirrored ones.</p>
<p style="margin: 1.2em 0px !important;"> Cheers,</p>
