Description

Issue AMQ-2564 showed that in a Pure Master Slave configuration the Master has no mechanism to detach the hanging Slave broker. In case the Slave broker hangs, or stops responding there is no reason to also block the Master broker, maybe a similar hang can also occur when the Slave broker server is powered off trough a hardware failure.

The Master broker should have a mechanism to detach a Slave broker when it is blocked by the Slave broker for a certain time.
