ACe not supporting JMS

[Mahendra Upadhyay]

Hi ,

ACE Load-Balancer is not supporting JMS protocol.

I have tried sticky and Generic Loadbalancing type as I found couple of responses on cisco community for this well known problem but still no result.

If someone can help me in this then it will be a great help!

Thanks!

Mahendra-

  Looks like you are not seeing too many bites on loadbalancing JMS.  I went on a bit of a reading binge to find out what JMS does to communicate. 

I found this regaurding loadbalacing it: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19182-01/821-1065/ghhhx/index.html

It is about loadbalancing using a java machine, but the interesting part is that the endpoints have a single databased they sync to for the queue.

It would seem to me that clients would need to always go to the same server if you didn't have a queue (maybe use a hash based predictor or sticky on L3). 

Some protocols do not like being natted. Did you try just 1 server in a farm? Did that work?
