A-MQ client connects to a slave broker, not the master, when Amazon ELB is in use

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • A-MQ is configured in a master-slave topology on Amazon AWS virtual machines, and
  • Amazon ELB load balancers are between the brokers and their clients, and
  • the master broker fails.
  • Clients may appear to remain connected to the slave node, not the master, but no message data can be exchanged.

Environment

  • JBoss A-MQ
    • 6.x
    • 7.x is probably affected, but this is not verified
