Restarting a Failed Broker

After a broker has failed, you can restart it using the imqbrokerd command. Normally, the broker will automatically be re-registered into the cluster on startup.

However, if the broker slated to take over the failed broker's persistent data failed as it was taking over the persistent data, the running brokers in the cluster will not permit the failed broker to rejoin the cluster for 60 seconds or twice the value of imq.cluster.monitor.interval in seconds, whichever is greater.
