Errors to send the endpoint into the "Timeout" state retriesBeforeSuspension.

retriesBeforeSuspension

Integer

0

In the "Timeout" state this number of requests minus one can be tried and can be failed before endpoint is marked as "Suspended" retryDelay. This setting is a per endpoint setting. It is not a per message setting. So several messages can be tried in parallel and fail and the remaining retries will be reduced.

errorCodes

Comma separated list of error codes

All the errors except the errors specified in markForSuspension

Errors to send the endpoint in to the "Suspended" state.

initialDuration

milliseconds

60 x 60 x 1000

After an endpoint gets "Suspended" it will wait for this amount of time before trying to send the messages coming to it. All the messages coming during this time period will result in fault sequence activation.

progressionFactor

Integer

1

The endpoint will try to send the messages after the initialDuration. next duration = Max(initialDuration x progressionFactor ^ retry count, maximumDuration).

maximumDuration

milliseconds

Long.MAX_VALUE

Upper bound of retry duration.

Sample Configuration:

Code Block

<endpoint name="Sample_First" statistics="enable" >
    <address uri="http://localhost/myendpoint" statistics="enable" trace="disable">
        <timeout>
            <duration>60000</duration>

            <maximumDuration>64000</maximumDuration>
        </suspendOnFailure>

Disabling endpoint suspension

If you do not want the endpoint to be suspended at all, you can configure the Timeout, MarkForSuspension and suspendOnFailure settings as shown in the following example.

Code Block
languagexml
<endpoint name="NoSuspendEndpoint"> 
       <address uri="http://localhost:9000/services/SimpleStockQuoteService"> 
           <timeout> 
               <duration>30000</duration> 
               <responseAction>fault</responseAction> 
           </timeout> 
           <suspendOnFailure> 
               <errorCodes>-1</errorCodes> 
               <initialDuration>0</initialDuration> 
               <progressionFactor>1.0</progressionFactor> 
               <maximumDuration>0</maximumDuration> 
           </suspendOnFailure> 
           <markForSuspension> 
               <errorCodes>-1</errorCodes> 
           </markForSuspension> 
       </address> 
   </endpoint>

Failover Endpoint
Anchor
Failover Endpoint Configurations
Failover Endpoint Configurations

With leaf endpoints, if an error occurs during a message transmission process, that message will be lost. The failed message will not be retried again. These errors occur very rarely, but still message failures can occur. With some applications these rare message loses are acceptable, but sometimes even these rare message failures are not acceptable and the failover endpoint is the ideal solution for it.

Here is the configuration for failover endpoints. At the configuration level, a failover is a logical grouping of one or more Leaf endpoints.

Code Block

<failover>
       <endpoint .../>+
</failover>

...

A sample failover with one address endpoint:

Code Block

<endpoint name="SampleFailover">
    <failover>
        <endpoint name="Sample_First" statistics="enable" >
            <address uri="http://localhost/myendpoint" statistics="enable" trace="disable">
                <timeout>
                    <duration>60000</duration>
                </timeout>

                <markForSuspension>
                    <errorCodes>101504, 101505, 101500</errorCodes>
                    <retriesBeforeSuspension>3</retriesBeforeSuspension>
                    <retryDelay>1</retryDelay>
                </markForSuspension>

                <suspendOnFailure>
                    <initialDuration>1000</initialDuration>
                    <progressionFactor>2</progressionFactor>
                    <maximumDuration>64000</maximumDuration>
                </suspendOnFailure>

            </address>
        </endpoint>
    </failover>
</endpoint>
