Overview

This plugin provides native RabbitMQ instrumentation for monitoring and metrics collection, including service health, message, consumer, and queue health/metrics via rabbitmq_management, and more.

check-rabbitmq-alive
Checks if RabbitMQ server is alive using the REST API.

check-rabbitmq-amqp-alive
Checks if RabbitMQ server is alive using AMQP.

check-rabbitmq-cluster-health
Checks if RabbitMQ server's cluster nodes are in a running state. Also accepts an optional list of nodes and verifies that those nodes are present in the cluster.

check-rabbitmq-consumers
Checks the number of consumers on the RabbitMQ server.

check-rabbitmq-consumer-utilisation
Checks the consumer utilisation percentage (the fraction of time in which the queue is able to immediately deliver messages to consumer). If this number drops in percentage this may result in slower message delivery and indicate issues with the queue.

check-rabbitmq-messages
Checks the total number of messages queued on the RabbitMQ server.

check-rabbitmq-network-partitions
Checks if a RabbitMQ network partition has occured.

check-rabbitmq-node-health
Checks if RabbitMQ server node is in a running state.

check-rabbitmq-node-usage
Checks and shows usage for RabbitMQ server node.

check-rabbitmq-queue-drain-time
Checks the time it will take for each queue on the RabbitMQ server to drain based on the current message egress rate. For example, if a queue has 1,000 messages in it but egresses only 1 message per second, the alert would fire because this is greater than the default critical level of 360 seconds.

check-rabbitmq-queue
Checks the number of messages queued on the RabbitMQ server in a specific queues.

check-rabbitmq-queues-synchronised
Checks that all mirrored queues that have slaves are synchronised.

check-rabbitmq-stomp-alive
Checks if RabbitMQ server is alive and responding to STOMP requests.

metrics-rabbitmq-overview
Shows RabbitMQ 'overview' stats similar to those shown on the main page of the rabbitmq_management web UI.

metrics-rabbitmq-queue
Gathers the following per-queue rabbitmq metrics: message count, average egress rate, "drain time" metric (the time a queue will take to reach 0 based on the egress rate), and consumer count.

metrics-rabbitmq-exchange
Gathers all the available exchange metrics.

Additional notes

Sensu Go Ruby Runtime Assets

The Sensu assets packaged from this repository are built against the Sensu Ruby runtime environment. When using these assets as part of a Sensu Go resource (check, mutator, or handler), make sure to include the corresponding Sensu Ruby Runtime Asset in the list of assets needed by the resource.

Permissions

To run these checks, you need to set the following permissions:

:conf => '^aliveness-test$',
:write => '^amq\.default$',
:read => '.*'

You must also add the monitoring tag:

rabbitmqctl add_user sensu_monitoring $MY_SUPER_LONG_SECURE_PASSWORD
rabbitmqctl set_permissions  -p / sensu_monitoring "^aliveness-test$" "^amq\.default$" "^(amq\.default|aliveness-test)$"
rabbitmqctl set_user_tags sensu_monitoring monitoring

We recommended that you use minimum permissions and do not give administrator access.
