Writing to error queues on server other than where message originated

[jrisseeu (Jeff Risseeuw)]

We have numerous endpoints that in turn have their own error queue. I am wondering can we have the bus send the error to one central error queue on a different server. I am not seeing any documentation and that is making me think that it is not possible.

Thanks!

Good day, @jrisseeu.

I’m assuming, and please correct me if I’m wrong, that the transport is MSMQ. If that’s the case, it’s enough to configure the error queue as error@machine-name-where-errors-should-go. In this way all errors of all endpoints configured in that way will be delivered to the error queue on the machine-name-where-errors-should-go machine.

Before forwarding the message to the error queue, NServiceBus appends a FailedQ header to the failing message specifying the queue name (and machine) where the message originally failed.

Let me know if that helps.
