Broker Role is ASYNC_MASTER, SYNC_MASTER or SLAVE. If you cannot tolerate message missing, we suggest you deploy SYNC_MASTER and attach a SLAVE to it. If you feel ok about missing, but you want the Broker to be always available, you may deploy ASYNC_MASTER with SLAVE. If you just want to make it easy, you may only need a ASYNC_MASTER without SLAVE.
## 3.2 FlushDiskType
ASYNC_FLUSH is recommended, for SYNC_FLUSH is expensive and will cause too much performance loss. If you want reliability, we recommend you use SYNC_MASTER with SLAVE.
| brokerIP1 | InetAddress for network interface | Should be configured if having multiple addresses |
| brokerIP2 | InetAddress for network interface | If configured for the Master broker in the Master/Slave cluster, slave broker will connect to this port for data synchronization |
| brokerName | null | broker name |
| brokerClusterName | DefaultCluster | this broker belongs to which cluster |
| brokerId | 0 | broker id, 0 means master, positive integers mean slave |
| flushDiskType | ASYNC_FLUSH | {SYNC_FLUSH/ASYNC_FLUSH}. Broker of SYNC_FLUSH mode flushes each message onto disk before acknowledging producer. Broker of ASYNC_FLUSH mode, on the other hand, takes advantage of group-committing, achieving better performance. |
