Windows Service Bus and Network Load Balancing

  • 772

I'm looking to build an HA service bus farm, hopefully using Microsoft NLB on Windows Server 2012 R2, something like what is described here.

In the output below 9354 belongs to Microsoft.ServiceBus.Gateway.exe and 9356 belongs to Microsoft.ServiceBus.MessageBroker.exe.

My question is which port(s) do I ask NLB to forward?

netstat -anop TCP | find ":93"
TCP    0.0.0.0:9354           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       11424
TCP    0.0.0.0:9355           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       4
TCP    0.0.0.0:9356           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       12184
TCP    0.0.0.0:9359           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       4

  1. In our enviroment we set up a Service Bus Farm DNS and balance Service Bus traffic for ports 9354 and 9355, because only this ports are presented in Service Bus connection string.

    We use LVS (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Virtual_Server) instead of NLB but I don't think this could be an issue for you.
