Rabbitmq unacknowledged or non-consumed message alerts configuration

[Thanigai Arasu]

Hi, I would like to configure the alerts/mail communication to group of users when the pre-configured number of message limit is surpassed on the message consumption or un-acknowledged.

Please suggest the option to implement this.

Thanks

Thani

Hi,

You can get these metrics from the Prometheus endpoint (with per-object metrics enable or using :15692/metrcs/per-object endpoint):

$ curl -s localhost:15692/metrics/per-object | grep ^rabbitmq_queue_messages
rabbitmq_queue_messages_ready{vhost="/",queue="stream"} 128452332
rabbitmq_queue_messages_unacked{vhost="/",queue="stream"} 0
rabbitmq_queue_messages{vhost="/",queue="stream"} 128452332

or using the Management API (http://localhost:15672/api/queues/VHOST/QUEUE_NAME).

Everything else is up to your monitoring system - query/scrape one of these endpoints, compare with thresholds and send an alert.

Docs about these endpoints:

Best,
