[rabbitmq-discuss] How to synchronize the RabbitMQ exchanges?

Mon Dec 17 10:35:42 GMT 2012

Hi Simon,
Thanks for your reply. I'm looking for any plugin meeting requirements but
no lucky.   So it seems that we have to sync two brokers without
transferring messages by ourselves by api. The worst thing is that we may
have to sync definitions whenever we declare a new exchange ,queue or
binding.
