This has been discussed at great length; here are a couple of links that lead to interesting threads: https://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-November/026074... https://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2020-August/016362.h... There used to be a useful document here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Large_Scale_Configuration_Rabbit That link now points to the “Large Scale SIG” home page. Does anyone know where the useful RMQ document is? I assume that it is buried somewhere under “Large Scale Journey.” The bottom line is that, by default, kolla-ansible enables replication but not durable-queues, which is an unstable configuration. I believe that this may have been fixed in a newer version; we are on Train. https://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2020-August/016524.h...

Any reason kolla doesn't use HA policies by default? If i want to add policies then where should i specify them or any doc you can point me to define policies.
