Failover is great if you have another server to which to fail over ;) 
But if there's only the one, it'll hang. However, there are some backoff 
settings that can be adjusted so it shouldn't hang /forever/, but 
possibly for many minutes.

So, removing failover will change it to 'fail fast' behavior. Of course 
it won't fix the core issue of the JMS server being down :\
