NAME
check_rabbitmq_server - Nagios plugin using RabbitMQ management API to check the server resource usage
(processes, memory, file descriptors, and sock descriptors)
SYNOPSIS
check_rabbitmq_server [options] -H hostname
DESCRIPTION
Use the management interface of RabbitMQ to check the resource usage of the server. This check looks at
the node statistics for the rabbit node on the host and examines the erlang memory, process and file
descriptor usage.
It provides performance data for each of these variables and allows for warning and criticality levels to
be specified for each.
It uses Monitoring::Plugin and accepts all standard Nagios options.
OPTIONS
-h | --help
Display help text
-v | --verbose
Verbose output
-t | --timeout
Set a timeout for the check in seconds
-H | --hostname | --host
The host to connect to
--port
The port to connect to (default: 55672)
--ssl
Use SSL when connecting (default: false)
-w | --warning
The warning levels, expressed as a percentage for each of memory, process, file descriptor and
sockets usage. This field consists of four comma-separated integers. (default: 80,80,80,80)
-c | --critical
The critical levels, expressed as a percentage for each of memory, process, file descriptor and
sockets usage. This field consists of four comma-separated integers. (default: 90,90,90,90)
-n | --node
The node name (default is hostname)
--username | --user
The user to connect as (default: guest)
--pass
The password for the user (default: guest)
EXAMPLES
The defaults all work with a standard fresh install of RabbitMQ, and all that is needed is to specify the
host to connect to:
check_rabbitmq_server -H rabbit.example.com
This returns a standard Nagios result:
RABBITMQ_SERVER OK - Memory OK (6.19%) Process OK (0.01%)
FD OK (2.53%) Sockets OK (0.86%) | Memory=6.19%;80;90 Process=0.01%;80;90 FD=2.53%;80;90 Sockets=0.86%;1;2
You can specify different warning and criticality levels. -w and -c both accept four comma-separated
percentages which represent the thresholds for memory, process and file descriptor usage respectively.
For example, to specify warnings for memory at 60%, process at 80%, file descriptors at 95%, and socket
descriptors at 90%:
check_rabbitmq_server -H rabbit.example.com -w 60,80,95,90
ERRORS
The check tries to provide useful error messages on the status line for standard error conditions.
Otherwise it returns the HTTP Error message returned by the management interface.
EXIT STATUS
Returns zero if check is OK otherwise returns standard Nagios exit codes to signify WARNING, UNKNOWN or
CRITICAL state.
