[SR-Users] DMQ question

In the first instance, you could use dmq_is_from_node() to determine if the
message is a replicated one and if so, don't relay.

There's no specific function to check the state of other nodes, although it
would be a simple addition. If I understand your question correctly,
however, if the message has just been replicated by the primary server then
it's safe to assume it's in service, right?

Cheers,
Charles
