Netty High Availability Cluster

Wondering if Netty has any examples of how I can create a high availability application whereby the netty client will use a backup server in case of live server failure.

If you want to make the client and server highly available and to manage the connections state by your code with ease, Have a look on Akka Remote Actor API which is using Netty for underlying communication .

There is no example of this. But I think its quite straight-forward. You need to have a pool of different "channels" that are connected to remote hosts. The do something like this:

channel.write(msg).addListener() {
    public void operationComplete(ChannelFuture future) {
        if (!future.isSuccess) {
            ... // get next channel from the pool and try the write there etc..
        }
    }
}

Hope it helps..
