Fallback disables - Hystrix


I'm using Hystrix in my environment associated with Liferay and other external services. My circuit gets some fails and opens the circuit to a specific service. Everything is fine so far. However, the circuit never changes to closed again. My fallback is disabled with this property:

hystrix.command.default.fallback.enabled=false

What should I do to circuit checks that my service is working and change to closed again? I have verified the circuits with the Hystrix Dashboard.

Solution

  • As you know circuit is opened, all requests during sleepWindowInMillisec‌​onds (default 5000ms) will be rejected. After sleepWindowInMillisec‌ time, your circuit becomes half-opened state and it allows just SINGLE request to flow to your backend server. If it fails, your circuit will become opened again and all following requests will be rejected during next sleepWindowInMillisec‌ time. If the request that was arrived at half-opened state succeeds, your circuit will become closed state.

    If your circuit looks opened always, it means that the request at half-opened state failed again. You can check the situation with exception message.
