Description

The core client respects the topology for loadbalancing by default. A federation connection configures and reuses a server locator via it's circuit breaker.
With ha = false, it looks like we should disable useTopologyForLoadBalancing such that the circuit reconnect gets back to the original broker even when clustered.
With ha=true, the reconnect can be to any broker in the cluster in the normal way.
