Hi Nima,
If a Passive Cluster comes online and fails to send an RPC redelivery

Can we export them from the HT Queue database?
MattRich - No, there isn't anyway to export.
Also, do you recommend the Queue database on HT server that

corruption in the HT Queue database?
MattRich - The queue database can't be backed up, it really wouldn't make any sense to as soon as you back it up, it would be outdated. Even if you could back it up, you couldn't replay it.
