Description

Currently servicemix.properties configures the underlying ActiveMQ to use the plain tcp:// transport.
activemq.url = tcp://${activemq.host}:${activemq.port}

However, in order to have ServiceMix functioning correctly in case of transport problems or simply inactivity timeouts, from which the tcp:// transport cannot recover, we should turn on failover:// by default. Otherwise any transport related problem causes ServiceMix to fail and requires a restart.
