Description:
=========
This solution lists the steps to configure Proxy Agents for High Availability and Load Balancing when managing SOAP/JMS Web Services

Environment:
==========
ALL

Resolution:
==========
- Register the SOAP/JMS Web Service in Policy Manager
- Manage the service with one of the Proxy Agents, say P1
- Manage the service with a second Proxy Agent, say P2 running on a different machine than P1
- The values specified for JMS Connection and Destination Name should be the same for both the proxy endpoints

This way each request message will be picked up by either of these two Agents (load balancing) and if one is down the other one will pick up the message (fault tolerance)
