2.4.2. Start multiple Brokers

To run more than one broker on a single machine, each broker must run on different ports and use different directories for the journals.
  1. Select two available ports, for example 5555 and 5556.
  2. Start each new broker, using the --data-dir command to specify a new data directory for each:
    $ qpidd -p 5555 --data-dir /tmp/qpid/store/1
    $ qpidd -p 5556 --data-dir /tmp/qpid/store/2
