nagios-plugins-rabbitmq

Overview

This package contains a set of nagios checks useful for monitoring a RabbitMQ server. They use the RabbitMQ management interface with is over HTTP and therefore have a very light profile on the nagios server.

See the documentation on the RabbitMQ management interface for more details on what it provides.

NOTE: RabbitMQ 2.x and RabbitMQ 3.x use different ports for the management interface. master is configured to use the RabbitMQ port by default (15672). If you are running RabbitMQ 2.x, use the rabbitmq-2.x branch.

Status

Currently we have the following checks:

• check_rabbitmq_aliveness

  • Use the /api/aliveness-test API to send/receive a message.

• check_rabbitmq_connections

  • Use the /api/connections API to gather details of connections used, their state and their throughput

• check_rabbitmq_objects

  • Use a variety of APIs to count instances of various objects on the server. These include vhosts, exchanges, bindings, queues and channels.

• check_rabbitmq_overview

  • Use the /api/overview API to collect the number of pending, ready and unacknowledged messages on the server

• check_rabbitmq_partition

  • Use the /api/nodes API to check for partitions in a RabbitMQ cluster.

• check_rabbitmq_queue

  • Use the /api/queue API to collect the number of pending, ready and unacknowledged messages and the number of consumers on a given queue

• check_rabbitmq_server

  • Use the /api/nodes API to gather resource usage of the rabbitmq server node

• check_rabbitmq_shovels

  • Use the /api/nodes API check that all the shovels of the given RabbitMQ host are running

• check_rabbitmq_watermark

  • Use the /api/nodes API to check to see if mem_alarm has been set to true

See the relevant POD documentation/man pages for more information on usage.
